Glest Board Changes

[Gabbe]

Development would fit more, but you mods and admins might have a hard time moving all the "mods under development"...

[John.d.h]

"Tools and Resources"?

[Gabbe]

It fits better, but i would still say development, because that covers more, and the thing is too have as little uhm.."boards" on the front page as possible right?

"Tools and Resources"?

Perfect.

That name isn't going to change the number of boards on the front page..........and the number of boards on the front page isn't even a problem............

[Gabbe]

but it still covers more?

Doesn't matter, it doesn't need to cover any more than Tools and Resources.

[Gabbe]

ok. "tools and resources"...

Hmm Omega can you tell me why "Quote links" are yellow when previewed, but in actual posts they are white. 
Forgot... Hmm...
Oh, and the poll...
Why didn't you use tucho's header?

here you are omega:

Look at the quality difference between the resized image and the original size one, try to no resize any image, please.

I think this would be better...

[Omega]

I'm baaaaaack (notice I was gone?). Anyway, to answer your questions:

The quote links thing is an overlook. I'll have to fix it. Thanks for noticing. They should be white in the preview too. When I set it so links in the preview were gold, it must've broke the quote links.

As for the header, I simply didn't. No reason. Should it be that header? I'll leave it to you all to decide. I losely based it upon the theme that Tucho had on a backup site.

[ultifd]

Hmm, OK. I thought it wouldn't hurt though... (the header)

I see, well you are welcome .

Anyway, to answer your questions:

Hmm, thanks, now how about the poll. ... I remember now, softcoder was getting really annoyed at people about asking for new features...ones that especially would be hard to add.

[Omega]

Its not quite the large majority I was looking for, but I think I will put in subforums in the GAE and MG boards. Expect them in about an hour or so, I gotta do something first.

I also have to fix a slight overlook that I noticed when I passed the page into the WC3's verifier. I forgot the type and language attributes of a javascript tag, which are optional, but required to make it completely 100% XHTML safe, so I can display that button at the bottom of the page.

Yeah, I agree...and know :-/ ...
Well, I guess we'll see how it goes later/how it will be...
EDIT: I see...well... hmm...we need a FAQ I guess. (I bet softcoder would want to say something about feature requests)

[Omega]

Done!

Of course, we gotta move all those feature requests. I'll start, but for the most part, its best off left for the respective moderators.

[ultifd]

Hmm, seems nice for now.
Maybe make it sub-boards ? [or here(mod) or this one(this one is for renaming it to anything...) if you want to be safer/100% works] I think people are more confused of the term "child boards" then sub boards...or maybe sub boards just sound better to me...

Anyways I can't think of anything else regarding child boards/no more mods that are beneficial regarding... them.

[Omega]

They are sub boards, though "child boards" is just the name SMF gave it. Maybe I will try one of those mods.

I know...

OK.

EDIT: The poll? Hmm, now to be removed right?

[Trappin]

This page should be cleaned and updated.

I thought only Martino or Josepin... (or just the glest team in general) had access to the "glest files"...
Hmm...

[Omega]

Indeed they do. My administer powers are limited to the board (and the Wiki, but that's not actually linked to the board at all).

[ultifd]

Hmm, thought so.

Code: [Select]

[img]http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/707/ss70.jpg[/img]Did you change it? or...
I mean, the top hasn't changed...(not sure) but the "headers"...
EDIT: Back to normal, weird.

[Omega]

I haven't changed it recently. I think your browser just failed to load the images. It definately happens to me far too often on my lousy internet...

I see, well, it was the first time for me so I thought it was changed...
Are you going to remove the poll?

--Apparently polls can't be removed, but I locked it and changed the thread name -Omega
OK, I googled for a remove poll mod but then found out you can.
Its at the bottom of the page usually I think. Just telling  you so in the future...
Unless somehow it is different? 

Code: [Select]

[img]http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/2742/ss84.jpg[/img]--Ah, I didn't notice that. Though I can't seem to remove it at the moment. Session verification failed... Great... -Omega

It would be nice if the "Jump to:" menu at the bottom was tall enough that it didn't need a scroll bar.  It's a bit annoying.

I mean, if I want to switch boards, I don't want to see the page I'm on anyways, so don't worry about taking up space.

Hmm, that should be part of the theme, so it should be changable...

So, the next version of the theme requires:
-Fix Javascript tag so its XHTML compliant
-Fix link color of quote headers in previews
-Remove limit from goto options box height.

Anything else I forgot about?

[Gabbe]

Just something i wish to tell, I didn`t think the child boards were confusing, good job Omega
