Cricket Web Forum Outage - Tomorrow!

[James]

Just checked across browsers and it's happening only in Firefox for me. So, i guess it's a issue at my end.

Cleared all Cricketweb cookies and restarted the browser and it's still happening.

I just tried this with Firefox on my computer and it worked fine. Are you still having the problem? Anyone else experiencing it also?

Nah James, I think its Verdana. If you play around with the font selection while posting, you can see its Verdana.

Test: This is Verdana. This is Arial.

Should all be Arial now

When did the option to like a post come about?

 

[NUFAN]

I think the like feature is so lame.

See the Notifications thread in this Site Discussion forum.

Interesting.

James, anything you can do about the big icons on the main forum? They look good on every other page.

Also, I can't seem to double click icons to mark the forums as read.

They're that size by default. In the images folder they have the images as one size for the main listing and then another size for inside a particular forum. Personally, I think it looks ok, but if enough people hate it, I can look at finding where in the templates you change it.

Doesn't seem to work for me either, will investigate.

vbulletin have changed the templates so much that maintaining the vbulletin 3 look isn't really practical moving forward. If there's nothing in particular you don't like I'm sure you'll get used to it in time.

It just seems to make it less efficient to browse the forum.

eg if I'm reading a thread in cricket chat, in the good old days to get back to CC I only had to click once on the "go" button. Now it requires 2 clicks.

You can still click here and that's one click to return:

But I assume you're referring to the Quick Navigation menu at the bottom. Not much we can do about that sorry.

The colour of read and unread posts isn't different enough, IMO. White vs very pale blue. Used to be yellow for unread.

Would you mind screen printing that for me please so I'm sure we're on the same wave length? Thanks.

Another thing is that previously unread posts used to be highlighted by an orange icon where the bolded bit is. For me it's permanently non-highlighted. Anything that can be done about it?

Is what I mentioned here.

The little icon to the left of the time and date of the post used to be orange for previously unready posts.

Can you please screen-print? I'm a bit unclear as to what you're referring to.

 

[Jarquis]

Literally do not know how "the icon to the left of the time and date" could refer to anything else mind you.

 

[James]

Sorry, I see now. Thanks for that

The colour is light blue at the moment. I'll change that to orange, will be easy enough

Should now be orange. Does that look much better now?
