Website update gremlins

[Wayne pudding Mol]

I’ll start, I can see this is going to be useful and uploading pics on phone will be great so this is constructive not critical

I'm getting adds and I’ve opted out

the photo upload doesn’t seem to be working - my photo is there until “post”

all topics I’m reading take me to page 1 

probably jumping the gun here

Hey Wayne

Thank you for the feedback! We're excited to finally get this update out.

Just as a start, the Forum is currently running a stripped down version of itself. There are a number of background tasks currently running which will finish through the day (there's 12 years of data to process). As they complete, more and more functionality will become available.

This includes the Plus memberships and is why you are seeing adverts. We are currently updating the list of Plus members. I've just added you. So you should not being seeing adverts going forward, but if you do, please report it to me!

The page 1 issue might be fixed once the background tasks are completed. But I will keep an eye on this.

You can also change the default behaviour here: https://forum.bikehub.co.za/settings/links/

I had to "reset" all my notification settings as they went to default mode after the update

"Go to First Unread Post" was a nice feature when you go to a thread. Please bring it back.

You should still have the blue dot/star on the left of the topic title which does that. (If you're looking at the Active Topics page.

Where are you looking / clicking from?

Does changing the setting here help? https://forum.bikehub.co.za/settings/links/

We're working on fixing the notifications not displaying in the drop down.

We're hoping that the "someone" reacted issue will be fixed once the background tasks finish processing. I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks, I honestly never knew that was an option.

I always clicked on the thread and then on the "Go to First Unread Post"

All these years and I only learn that now ????‍♂️

PS. At least my Facepalm emoji is easy to add after these updates

Thanks also. Mine was set to "Take me to the beginning"

fyi Nick I like the addition of a couple extra post 'like' options. 

 

You can't see who liked/laughed/'sadded' your post, but the choice is cool.

Maybe leave it like that...

The current topics also have a double slider, the inside one is non functional and hides the current reply count a bit. I keep seeing the time as the amount of replies.
