Clicking on a post number (such as #1, #2) in the comments under a news re-directs to "http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/".

Also, can anyone tell me how to go to the forum thread from a news post ?

Click add comment, look at the breadcrum trail at the top of the page, if you click on the title of the news post in that breadcrum trail you will get the forum post version instead.

Or go here:

Yeah mine is a little high too, not that it matters to me a great deal.

Exactly. Who cares about post count? Clearly, is it not a sign of knowledge...(not a personal dig, to anyone, note... but a lot of people, for some reason, seem to associate knowledge with post count, LOL!)

Has the "Today's Reviews" section been deleted from the TPU front page or have we had no reviews to post there?

Also, is there a way to remove your thanks? I accidentally thanked a wrong post, but cannot seem to remove it?

By clicking the "Thanks" button again it will remove the thank status

It seems to be specifically with that signature, because his sig includes QUOTE containers, whereas nobody else's does. Only thing I can think of is a more pronounced separator line between the main post and a signature

i will fix quotes in sig to look like the old forum

My post count is closer to what it was, but is still high. It was sitting at around 9087 before, but is now around 9560.

i think the "posts do not count to postcount in this forum" option is gone, or i havent found it yet

Mussels said:
not getting emails from thread subscriptions on the old forum. is that going to be imported, or just reset as i post/subscribe to new threads?

these are probably gone. no plans to do any further importing

postcount == e-peen; and everyone knows e-peen > everything else in life

Also, I would like to take note at this issue once again. Note the lack of smileys:

If that's the case, then I prefer it as I didn't really like the no post count rule in those parts of the forum. There's a difference of around 400 posts which is quite a bit. I've been even more active here than I thought.

Trust him to slack off when all the big changes come about

When I get an alert, it comes up with a small profile picture section. When i get an alert about you, I get the best section of your profile picture

Likes Received ? :confused:

Are you going to replace the "Thanks" button with a "Like" button ?

No, the "Like" button has been replaced with "Thanks", in true TPU style. I imagine you should just wait for W1z to update that tiny piece of text.

I've noticed the same but have no ideas how to improve

Could you add a new bbcode tag? Something that might have a different style of quote box?

Code:

[SIGQUOTE=Aquinus]I'm the watman![/SIGQUOTE]

Edit: Nevermind I misread that. There is a separator, but it's very very light on a light background. Maybe a bit more contrast on it?

Random Murderer · Nov 20, 2013

How do I send a PM? Is it the "Start a conversation" button?

Also, I agree with the others. The dark blue bar with the date/time of post looks nice and provides a great separator between posts, but the white background still needs to be a bit darker. The text... well, I could live with the font if it didn't press letters together so much. Maybe make the text slightly bolder or use a different font?

BTW, W1zz, you work fast. Liking the new format even more. I'm sure it'll take a hell of a lot more tweaking to make it feel like a proper successor to the old forums, but it's on its way.

Kreij · Nov 20, 2013

@Aquinus : In case you didn't know, you do not have to enclose BBCode in a CODE block to get the parsing to stop. You can use the PLAIN tag if you want it inline.

Yes. You can start one with me if you want to test it out before you give it the full monty.

Red_Machine · Nov 20, 2013

My post count is still lower than it was before you synced everything up. Well below, it was over 4,600.

I hate to be a complainer, but did you really need to overhaul the forum? Couldn't you have just updated it to the latest version of vBulletin? The old forum was so much better, IMO.

Easy Rhino · Nov 20, 2013

Since there is no infraction system I am surprised mailman hasn't spammed the entire forum...

What makes you think there is no infraction system?

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/
that's latest vbulletin, feel free to check their feedback forums for a quick overview how much vb5 sucks, while browing you'll figure this out yourself quickly, too.

infractions are now called warnings, they still count for points. everybody's infractions got successfully imported and converted. i also wrote an addon, so that you can see your own infractions on your profile page (like in the old forums)
