Welcome to the new Boards.ie platform - Version 1.0 :)

I haven't bookmarked any, this is the notifications for threads I have 'participated' (ie commented) in. I do want that generally but then want to be able to remove it for individual threads like on the old site, but doesn't seem possible.

I'll try the bookmarks instead.

Mine defaults to the list of updated threads from fittings I'm following so is effectively "my threads" from the old site.

Desktop front pages still needs some attention.

Font very small compared to other pages like my bookmarks and the text doesn't bold and unbold as it does on my bookmarks page.

Desktop envelope icon for PM's still not working either. Still giving an error.

Hyperlinks on footer still not working.

Nah. I tried it, and it just comes up with “username not available”.

What is annoying is some of the thread number breadcrumbs. So, I was on a thread earlier with 12 pages. I went from the first page to the 12th page - just to see the latest comments, but with the intention of reading the whole thread.

Could I go back to the first page? Not easily! Going back just brought me to the the home index page, and there was no 1st page option. Went back click by click to get to the first page, but it was a fairly slow process. So - can we have an option to go back to the first page in addition to the option (already exists) to go to the last page? I think this is something being tweaked, as it has worked already on other threads in the last weeks.

The ellipses doesn’t do anything - on mobile anyway - same with the old site. It would be great if you could click on it and pick a page. There’s no point in it otherwise.

I see we can now view my forums on desktop site and follow / unfollow forums - nice one.

Yep fairly annoying. If the thread is merged into another there is no notice of it being merged - a thread I commented in got merged to a mega thread. It opens the discussion you are responding to up to all sorts of issues. It is easily missed that a thread is merged unless you look at the title, even then you may pass it off as being renamed. A thread being merged with another is very important information all posters to both threads need to know because the original discussion that the posters of the original discussion responded to, would not necessarily respond to it if in a mega thread. Also the participants of the mega thread just see the original discussion as a new comment and or question/enquiry to the mega thread (which may have been already asked) again the original poster may not have necessarily been aware that the topic should exist in a mega thread nor would they have posted to that thread knowing that there are many posters most likely with a predisposition for the topic; neither the original discussions participants or the participants of the merged are aware that these new posts to the thread have read or indeed seen previous posts in the mega thread so both are ignorant to everyone's position because both have been following along with the discussion and both sides will probably just conclude the other is being an idiot.

It is the lack of communication from the moderator who moved the thread or rather the system should be providing the moderator the means to easily communicate to the community that 'this is what happened here', instead the moderator (or a different one) quite possible will have to deal with all sorts of issues stemming from the lack of communication of the situation in merged threads.

It's hard to distinguish the Liked posts from those without Likes. Can there be some visual indicator?

Something like a colour gradient where the more Likes a post has that the box gets filled in, or it changes colour or becomes stronger. It would be nice when scrolling a thread to easily pick out posts with none, a few or a lot Likes.

A glitch on the desktop version (may have been reported before, but it's really annoying me this morning)

When I click on a thread title with new posts, it brings me to the first unread post, but it doesn't show the whole post, it's like I've scrolled down a couple of lines - I have to click the "up" button twice to see the full post and the blue banner with the time.

This site is too much like hard work compared to the last version.

What I don't like is that links take me off the site instead of opening a new tab, no count of comments in a thread so I can't see if I'm going up or down, only a few of my followed threads have new posts since the upheaval, quoted comments are just a cut & paste of the original so there's loads more scrolling to do, its just yuk. Instead of being neat and efficient its become bloated and flabby. Oh, and the horrible profile image which I can't remove without loading up another image.

I'll give it a rest for a few weeks and then see if it has improved in any way.

There's a noticeable decrease in moderation these days. Is this due to functionality issues or are mods just not logging on as much?

Simple really if you see "Some Thread" it means the thread title is inside quotes "Some Thread"

If you see "Some Thread & More Words" it means the thread is titled "Some Thread & More Words"
