Would heavily appreciate groups you're not a member of not being in the Recent Content section by default. Just makes sense, doesn't it?

Also echoing my sentiment that I hope I can filter out certain subforums from it soon. Please god I've had enough Current Events.

Anyways...

Seems a little redundant, doesn't it?

Maybe they could just put an edit button with one of those little Dropdown triangles next to it for the full page mode choice?

I'll be honest, after using the forums now a couple days...the lack of subforums is truly awful. The site as a whole is a mess to properly browse anymore, I really hope an option is added to bring them back :/

 

[CeeDee]

You know it's serious when even the site editor is upset

 

[Costello]

Why did we get rid of sub forums? That was such a great way of searching for specific things...

we are investigating solutions, since a lot of people are asking for it. Bear in mind that absolutely nothing is lost, we still have the old board active on the old server, we can pretty much bring back everything the way it was before, anytime we want it. But we are trying to think of solutions that will bring improvement, not just to "go back the way it was before".

I understand the sentiment completely, and having a more refined forum use experience is a good thing, but I personally don't think it was broken the way it was. The subforums there had their own legitimate uses, and there are definitely cases where users may want to use one but not the other. (Someone who wants to participate in a console's forums without delving into the hacks section?)
I'm all for "go back to the way it was" personally. I liked that, and I still think it's a solid setup.

I have already mentioned a potential solution, but it seems like not a lot of people realize the potential of groups yet, so my post went quite much unnoticed.


The gist is that I think that the change is much preferable for users who are willing to/can adapt to this change, and "powerusers" who can make use of most features the forum software offers.

The problem is the sudden change from one system to an other, and it's completely understandable that a lot of people are upset because they are heavily confused.

I suggested a temporary or permanent transition period, where "sub-subforums" act like just now clicking on the subforum itself, except a tag combinatory filter would be applied before being redirected back to the subforum.

This however requires a new feature to be implemented: tag combinatorics.
Currently I can't find a way to search threads by using AND and/or OR operators on tags, meaning that this change is actually a downgrade, despite its list of pros over traditional "sub-subforums".

Edit: grammar
Also feedback: edit reason textbox is missing.

I've changed some settings. It looks like it's working now. Can you try again?

Now it works. Thank you

The alert badge is repeated on the hamburger menu button on mobile, which is pretty redundant in my opinion.

Didn't get the "Newcomer" Trophy

THX for the new V8 Style and your hard work

 

[Zkajavier]

Hi, not sure if this has been reported already but, in mobile, when it turns to automatic dark mode, the page numbers and arrows are VERY hard to see, they're barely visible.

I'm using Chrome on Android 10, Samsung S10e

You'd be surprised, but it's actually not that redundant.

I don't remember how I managed to do it, but I managed to once desynchronize the two numbers, so it seems like the two are slightly independent of eachother.

 

[raxadian]

On mobile I have two alerts that are not in the alert bell button but in the other side and I don't know what the heck they mean or now to make that red two next to the G in GBAtemp V8 go away.

@Cyan If you scroll to the bottom of the Forums and click Groups, it lists them without pictures.

Thank you for providing a solution

 

[gudenau]

Huh, this is a weird one. It also just pasted the image twice in the editor, I only pressed ctrl+v once and it showed up twice.

 

[VinsCool]

Hah yep I was just about to share the same observation.
Also ayy colours are back!

 

[godreborn]

something odd happened yesterday. I don't know if it's something I did, but I tried to join the "wish you were here" group by @Foxi4 , and the request was sent to my pm box. I tried to allow the request, and it said, "you do not have privileges to access this page" or something to that effect. shouldn't the request have gone to Foxi4?

i can force wide screen view ... but it doesn't stick .. is this an error on my part or the sites ?
