Title: Board Upgrade
Post by: RET on February 13, 2002, 01:49:07 AM
Unless you're blind and someone is reading this to you, you might notice the boards look quite different!  The board software has been upgraded to YaBB 1 - SP1.  I have done some limited testing, and it seems to be OK.  I would appreciate if you could send me an IM or an email if you discover anything broken.

Holden Together,
Richard

Hey Michael,
                    I found that the login was "Case-sensitive" so be sure to put any capitals in you log-in.

You also need to have your browser set to allow cookies.  Check the security settings.  There is a "Michael" and a "Michael_D" registered, so I presume one of them is you.

cheers

Richard,
im a huge fan of the chat, but the upgrade seems to make each page load really slow, is there a setting in my imac which could help, or is there something else amiss?

Cheers

Ed

Ed,

I am not having that problem this afternoon, but it was slow this morning - maybe zeta's servers were overloaded (all those FE chatters ;D)

GIDDAY RET

I JUST LOGGED STRAIGHT ON WITH NO TROUBLE BUT DID NOTICE THAT IT SEEMED A LITTLE SLOWER THAN I AM USED TO.

LOVE THE NEW COLOURS, KEEP THE IMPROVMENTS UP!

Richard,

because I'm 3hrs behind, I tend to use "10 Most Recent Posts" a lot.  Since the upgrade, I'm seeing black text on dark grey background in the message boxes in this part of the BB.  The rest of the pages I visit seem to be OK.

That's odd - it's almost like it's using some of the previous layout and styles.  I'll have a look and see if I can improve it a bit.

Bear in mind that if/when you log in (or 'stay logged in') the folder and thread heading icons show whether that board or thread has new posts since you last visited.

cheers
