Guest Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 The layout seemed to have moved to responsible, which is good. Now the problem with oversized photos don't seem to require horizontal scrolling. As the theme is still being constructed, couple thoughts. Colours could have more contrast. User panel on the left, could be more compressed and use smaller font General layout compressing, moving Like button to the same row as + Quote is, when using less than 800px page width Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddavidovsky Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Too much white space. That means more scrolling, more eye movement, and the page is uncomfortably bright. More white space has been the trend in webpage design for a couple of years. I guess user-friendliness is not considered as important as being a slave to fashion.

anotheruser Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 The up arrow in the lower right interferes with the quote button and can be annoying. I really dislike the up arrow button or it's placement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried enabling it earlier which was also a contribution of it falling over. As soon as we can I'll get it back working. TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are all staying open. If I spend 4 hours on TV and look at 80 different sites that is going to be a lot of open pages. That is a setting that can easily be changed. It is really no big deal.

Guest Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 One more request: Please add an ability to save the Custom sort option (it's possibly to filter out topics without replies in 7 days) . I personally wish to hide all the pinned topics, which are now taking a full page on for example Phuket forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that this is performed by the Unread Content button at the top right of the page (well, 1 inch down), which brings up a timeline of new posts.

anotheruser Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I might be wrong but if you refresh a page it brings you to a previous page and not the latest post. It didn't do that this time but I am sure it did before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilsonandson Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 The white background is hurting my eyes. But the biggest drawback is the app not working. The Thaivisa android app was so, so user friendly. I could post so fast. I could surf the whole database, each thread, the timeline, the joy, oh I miss the app so. Pls, pls update the app TD. I want my app back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anotheruser Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I agree the new forum is too bright. If an option to change themes could be made available to the end user that would be brilliant. The current forum is harsh on the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pdaz Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Where is the "new content/latest posts" button ? If I just want to see recent posts in all forums ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siam2007 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 extremely confusing so far. I don't like that I can not properly see the "new posts since your last visit". I want that per topic and not per post. The old version was far better. But maybe TV wants to wipe out the remaining Laptop-/Computer users and go mobile version only ? Hmmmmm.....

JetsetBkk Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 PLEASE can we have the "BBCode" mode button back? It used to be top left of the reply box icons. Basically, I don't like - and rarely used - the WYSIWYG editor. I'd rather see the [ quote ], etc BBCodes as it makes editing much more precise and configurable.

Just an update on this, it now appears to be wrapping on each word rather than each letter. Would be great if it could manage a few words per line.

MW72 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 On first viewing I think I quite like the new format. On my PC just now and my Android app isn't working so I'll reserve judgement until it is back up and running. Checked my profile and I have to say I am a little disappointed that my date of birth is in the M/D/Y format when the majority of the world use the D/M/Y format.

What happened to New posts since last visit ? You can't seriously mean we have to click on Activity , then activity streams and New activity ? It's not the same function and I have to click 3 times. Maybe you do not want Windows users anymore? As long as my Android app for the tablet works as before I will continue to log in but the website is a complete mess now .

gk10002000 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 This new format is terrible. It now contains massive amounts of white space. Things are spread out much more instead of succinctly and compactly displayed. Looks as bad as the latest changes Yahoo made. Very poor design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooloomooloo Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I don't think the format is too bad. Been on for two hours and well aware that it's already becoming second nature. I've been in to computing since early 80s and just roll with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 The design is nice but I don't care. The MOST IMPORTANT thing to me is I want to do exactly as before, and click to see New Posts of threads I have participated with ONE CLICK from the main page. I see now I can see UNREAD CONTENT but I see EVERYTHING ... That's OK but that other thing was HUGE for the way I used the forum. Is this coming back or not? If not, I'll have a real learning curve to understand how to use this forum as before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold the Mouse on your User Name and after a (second or so) wait, you will see, "Find Content" But at the moment it will only show the newest content you have participated in.
