Welcome to the other side.

The only other "distraction" for me (as of now) is the transparency of the pop-up when you hover over a thread title. Very difficult to read with so much background bleeding through.

That one is on my list, plus fixing the hover color on the tab submenus.

All fonts have been increased by a point size, and the font type changed to Verdana.

Works for me!

The font size is fine, but it seems like the bolding on unread thread titles is gone. There is not distinction between read/unread, at least on the PC.

Thank you for pointing that out. I turned it off by mistake, don't recall doing it but the setting no longer showed bold. It should be resolved now.

All better now.

Here's another oddity that hopefully I can explain...

On the PC, I click a thread title which takes me to the first unread post. After the post is displayed, the page header (Home, Articles, Forums..., followed by Mark Forums Read, Search Forums...) is displayed OVER the text I'm trying to read forcing me to have to scroll up to continue.

First chance I've had to run this new set up on a PC. Looks really good.

I started with the iPhone Monday and that was a struggle, I know you have many tweaks to apply as we go.

Nice avatar there Admin 4, same thing in my trade......

Adding another oddity. I've seen this on Firefox on Debian and on Chrome on Android. For when you obtain a roughly circular tuit.

Another minor oddity to be fixed when there's time: collapsed forums don't stay collapsed across browser invocations. They do stay collapsed in active browser sessions. A cookie issue?

The post after https://www.turbodieselregister.com/threads/well-well-well-no-collusion.261148/page-5#post-2547859 is 'hanging'; the bowser never completes DLing the page.

 

[TDRAdmin4]

Hanging threads now resolved.

Ah, it took a while to figure it out. The 'Articles' tab was showing me there were 14 unread articles. But there weren't any such. Finally, when I marked all forums read, the '14' indicator disappeared. Should that indicator be on/over the forums tab? (I believe it consistently appears over the articles tab when it appears.)

 

[TDRAdmin4]

Yeah its one of the bugs I will be addressing

I was searching for the thread where a poster found the ground wires in a harness near the VP just stripped and under some heat shrink instead of being securely spliced. I think it may be in this link, not completely sure but it says not found when I click on it. Did it die with the changeover ?. It seemed like relevant info that should be kept.

When I use the site, I often use my iPhone or my iPad. I haven't logged on with my PC yet.
I see different home screen menus with each.
iPhone----

But when I use my iPad, I see a different menu with "RECENT ACTIVITY".

Is there a way to get this on my phone as well? I liked that feature on the old forum. It filters for what the popular topics are at any given moment. Also easier to find what you just posted.

So far, looks great, thanks for all the hard work.... I know it's a PITA squashing those last few bugs. I had a good laugh as I rolled out a good rant this morning... it didn't sensor Jackasses, but it sensored Stealership..... who's got you on their payroll?!?

 

[HHhuntitall]

dealership = steal(your money)ership

I didn't setup the filters, they've been that way for years. I assume it's to prevent defamation/libel issues if someone is naming a specific dealer --- ask Steve St. Laurent, I believe he set them up.

It's supposed to put an additional drop down menu there based on resolution. If you can let me know which model iPhone I'll look up the resolution and check the settings.

Essentially correct.

Sounds like the bad word filter may need a couple new entries.

BTW, something to put near the bottom of your priority list: put a 'mark forums read' button at the bottom of the window. (Or submit the request upstream and wait for it to percolate through.) When I finish reading the fora, I'm nearly always at the bottom of the page (or the main forum page); seems that would be the 'logical' place for the 'Mark Forums Read' button.
