The "OP" tags.

[Sonic Angel Knight]

In case anyone didn't noticed.... (I DID) There is a new indicator of the "OP" In each topic. Is found at the left where the user profile info is. It stands for original postet, The one who created the topic/thread, it is there only for this reasons so if you see it you know who made it. I just wanted to point that out.

I think is a very cosmetic thing but i suppose is useful too. So if anyone didn't know, now you know, and knowing is half the battle. The more you know the better.

Surprised you guys noticed already.

This new feature is a WIP. There's still some tweaking to do to it, and this may not be the final implementation of it either.

Hey, I've got a suggestion. Why not place it like this...

or

A bit less space wasted. Looks nicer, in my opinion.

 

[DinohScene]

I like the mock up of CeeDee better.
Just looks better then what it is now.
Then again, it's being said that it's WIP so I'm eager to see the final result!

 

[Sicklyboy]

it's nice, i noticed it just a few minutes ago too, although i don't know if it is obvious enough?
i'm not sure if everyone would notice it. but yeah, thanks mods.

That's actually one of the things under discussion right now, alternatives that can be done that are more obvious than the current implementation.

The problem with I can see with these (even more so on the former) is that since the user card has a fixed width, putting the OP tag there is going to push people's names onto two lines at times, possibly even worse than it already is for people who have long names.

 

[Costello]

yes those are some good suggestions. This is still work in progress of course

we are experimenting a few upgrades on the forum this month, there are more coming, stay tuned

 

[cearp]

roms are coming back? i can't wait!

Can't be much worse than now...

Anyhow, what about this?

No, the site's revamping to enhance on the News and Reviews sections, catered towards PSVita and weeb gamers, removing unnecessary, irrelevant forums like Hacking & Homebrew and Edge of Forums.

This OP positioning is perfect to me. I just wonder if it can actually be implemented.

Well, if the green online banner could, this probably could too, I'd imagine.

lol.

I blame Chary and the anti-furries

Don't be dissin' my womanly friend @Chary I'll go get her. She got click bait, don't mess with her charms.... Lolipops.

Anyway, I dunno if this is a big deal or not but to me it is. "OP" as in original poster. Could maybe add a T beween it for "Original Topic Poster" Or OTC for "Original Topic creator" The T can stand for either topic or thread. (Personally i prefer topic since that what it is as thread remind me of clothing and needles) Is the same situation with comments and post. You post a comment, so is a "Either or" Kind of situation.

Not that it actually matters or benefit anything besides adding one extra letter. Also make it gold, then people will feel special about themselfs for once.

 

[Swiftloke]

I can confirm that this is an issue:

Gs6 on Chrome.
It's still a nice feature!

Lol nice inspect element @CeeDee. I personally nice the mock-up with Costello in it better. (In the positioning)

 

[Sonic Angel Knight]

I'm still trying to understand for the people using mobile devices with android, as i am using one.... That is considered mobile myself and not receiving issue as stated earlier. The thing i notice is just like in the shared screen shots, the Positioning of the user profile is different than mine, as everything is on the left side like desktop instead of on the top of the comment. So i dunno why that is, while i seem to not have this problem. Again as you can see here.

I would suggest maybe using landscape mode or changing accessability options in web browser, or android device settings. Or request desktop mode. Maybe even a different browser to be sure.

 

[Sicklyboy]

It's going to have to do with screen/window resolution, which will be influenced by device orientation. 1440p screen (Nexus 6P), portrait it obscures the OP tag, landscape it does not.

Putting it into desktop mode isn't going to fix it, because there isn't actually a "mobile" version of the site - Xenforo just scales and rearranges it based off of your screen resolution. Take a desktop browser window and start making it tall and narrow and it'll scale the same way.

this looks pretty good, I'll try to see if it can be done

 

[Thunder Hawk]

Those OP tags look great on desktop. Hats off to whoever made those.

 

[Costello]

I have a made a change on the OP tag display.
Looks OK to me now on:
- desktop / computer
- mobile (iphone) when using landscape display

however when I browse on mobile (iphone) in portrait mode, I don't see the OP tags at all, they completely disappear.
can anyone try and let me know how it looks like now?

Looks good here on Desktop with Chrome.

Huh. Same on Chrome for Android. I usually use Tapatalk though, and afaik Tapatalk does not even have OP tags anyway.
