Upgrade 2018 member feedback

[LanaD]

I'm enjoying chat. The way it is works well for me.

Where is chat now?

Where is chat now?

It appears that it's still down. @anthony is working hard to get everything up, but there's a lot left to do and chat isn't on the critical list.

Thanks, anthony, for your hard work ... this upgrade has obviously been a beast.

Is there a list of which emojis work on the forum and which don't? See thread below:

Oh dear, can someone please explain emojis and how to use them?

 

[somerandomguy]

All the old emojis appear to be working - you just have to remember the old code.

 

[Deleted member 47099]

Well, I don't remember them...

I had a really hard time getting back onto the site yesterday afternoon. Clearly it was while it was being upgraded. I came back several hours later and it was here... so relieved and it is awesome...thank you Anthony!

My feed back is the text appears to be pale. It's not a 'rich' text. Is there anything I can do in my settings on this site to fix this? It's not my laptop..

Yeah, I find the text to be quite "pale" or "fine" too - it's a bit hard on the eyes... I kind of squint to read it properly. (I'm also on a laptop, in case that matters)

Thanks for the feedback, @blackemerald1 and @Sophy. My guess is that toggling cosmetic issues (weight of text, for example) will be addressed towards the end of the process. I'll add it to the feedback list. For the time being, I'd suggest playing with your browser settings. Zoom would be a simple band-aid.

Adjusted. Finding the balance to fit all screen types (LED, OLED, VGA, etc) is trial and error, let alone resolutions (eg: retina v non-retina).

It has taken 6+ hrs just to get articles, donations and groups correctly implemented. Close to 50% done. A lot to go and will continue announcing in the other thread as each feature is rolled out. Not everything is member based, some things are staff specific, thus not mentioned publicly.

The text is much better now thank you for adjusting it. I can only imagine how difficult it is to find the correct balance. Thanks Anthony and joeylittle..

I know you're still actively working on the site but i noticed my Emojis diassapear while composing posts on iPhone. If i use an emoji and hit reply fast enough they did post, but otherwise just randomly vanished
