New official Therapy? message boards

#

Started by Teethgrinder (René Fennema) Administrator

Folks, welcome to the brand new Therapy? message boards!

They are easier to use, and better than ever. We’re using brand new software with a new design and layout, and many new features. Find out what’s new and give us your feedback. We’d love to hear what you think.

I’m sure the changes will take some getting used to, but I hope you will grow to like the new boards as much as I do :-)

This is exciting :D I like your icon Rene!

Is there still a “see who’s online” option?

@Grant - on that grey bar at the top where it says ‘view all… etc’ at the end it says ‘all catagories’ and there’s an arrow. Click that and you can select a forum area :)

@Dermot - If there is I haven’t found it yet :s

There’s no option to see who’s online yet, but that will be added sooner rather than later. I wanted to get the new boards out and collect feedback, and will update and add features in the time to come.

things ive noticed : signitures and smileys turned off by defualt, when sigs are on its hard to tell were they start and were posts end due to lack of seperator

post count and maybe other information like location or gender, would be cool to show up at top of your posts.

Oooh…it’s certainly different. Will take a bit of time getting used to it, but I’m sure we’ll all survive in the meantime.

Have the T? lads seen it yet?

OK, everything feels weird and counterintuitive, but I’m sure the feeling will pass.

This may just be because everything’s still unfamiliar, but I think something might need to be done about the categories, now. I mean, you can view all unread posts, or you can view unread posts one category at a time, but there isn’t (I don’t think) a quick and easy way to see if there are new posts just in the old 100% T? section. It’s ok if you want to come on and read everything that’s new, but if you’re a casual member, and only come on infrequently wanting to check the T? stuff, then there’s now a fair few links to click through, where before you could just look at the 100%T? section and see at a glance.
I don’t know if I explained that very well, though. :s

And I’d like to see that ‘Who’s Online’ thing back up soon, please. :)
EDIT: And where the hell are the smilies?!

You’ve got to turn the similies on in your options page.

You’ve explained it just fine, and it is something I’ve already been thinking about. In addition to viewing all categories or viewing a single category, I’d like to add an option to select a subset of categories which will be remembered between vists, so you can only view the categories you’re interested in. Only the ones related to Therapy? for example, or any other combination of categories you want. In the mean time, if there’s a specific discussion you’re not interested in, simply click the cross icon to the right of it and it will be hidden from view.

Smilies and signatures are disabled by default, and can be turned on from your account, on the view smilies and view signatures pages respectively.

Tubthumper, the T? lads haven’t seen it yet, but I’ll tell them about it later today.

So far I liked the old messageboards better, but give me some time, I’ll probably get used to it.
Although I don’t like the design at all. :-(

Rene, ok, that’d be cool, thanks. :)

And another thing: Where’s the quote button?! *sobs melodramatically* And no editing?
Oh, this is the end of civilisation as we know it, it’s all a disaster… ;)

Heh heh, this reminds me of when teethgrinder.com changed to therapyquestionmark… there was similar wailing and gnashing of teeth!

It’s looking good, and I definitely think the Wall of Mouths needed a kick up the ass so good job Rene :)

soul doubt, what’s the main thing you don’t like about the design?

My page headers are green, grant - I don’t know what you mean?

Post editing might return in the future. In the mean time, the preview option is a handy tool to check your message for grammar and spelling mistakes, and correct usage of formatting code, before actually posting it.

No quote buttons, indeed. I really wanted to try doing without them for a while, to see how that would work out.
