Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
I'd like the forum jump option at the bottom of the page to act like the old version of the site. If you're in the other forum reading a thread and you get to the end of it and want to go back to the other forum, you pull the drop down and if you select other forum, it doesn't go back. You can jump to any other forum, but not the one in which you are reading a thread. There used to be a "Go" button that would allow you to go back to the forum you were in when you clicked the thread you were reading.

Agreed; however there is a difference between upgrading the forum software and plastering adds everywhere for logged in members. I haven't tried yet but does logging out show even more? Or is member/non member experience the same now?

Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
Used the mobile site a little bit last night. When I clicked on a thread it does not take me back to the first new replay/unread post. I have to click the last page link and find the where I left off.
Bad forum redesigns can kill a sites community. I've seen it happen before. |
Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
I don't care for the infinite scrolling in long threads.

Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
I'm not a fan of the huge ass ads.

Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
For the most part, for me, doesn't seem as bad as others see. I'm using a Chromebook, for reference. I like having forum jump menus at the top and bottom.
Lately, when I finished a thread, it would not "mark it as read" (i.e. unbold thread title). I was hoping the upgrade would fix it, but still the same. Maybe just me? |
Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
I don't use the mobile version and am not cool with the increased number of ads making browsing and posting so tedious.

Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
There needs to be a quick jump at the top of the forum page. I hate having to scroll to the bottom or using that forum selector at the top.

Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
Suggestion on formatting. Maybe reduce the column sizes for Replies, Last Post, and Views to allow for more room for Thread title so it doesn't drop to a 2nd line?

Many reviews don't seem to show up. You get the menus and the top of the screen but the reviews themselves are blank. Maybe it's just me, but I've noticed this for the DePalma & DeNiro review and the old Waterworld review and several others listed under Latest/Newest Reviews...

Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
Lots of justified negativity in this thread. With that said, I'll throw in a couple of positive comments:
That's about all I can say that's very positive.

Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
FYI This thread alone is now blocking 17 ads when I enter it. Trump thread blocks 19 :eek:

Another site I used to frequent did that, but at least they gave you the option of closing that space once you're logged in. Just having it there without the ability to do anything about it is the worst possible thing you could've done for DVD Talk. WTF is 3" of white space? Just leave the ads at the top where they used to be, this just looks dumb as shit.

Is anyone else having this problem? |
Re: Jan. 3rd 2019 Upgrade Master Thread
Any way to get rid of the footer bar at the bottom of the page (the thing that allows you to navigate pages, jump, etc)?
My notebooks resolution is 1366 x 768, and that footer takes away from my limited screen real estate and with the white-space on the right - it really makes me feel even more claustrophobic. |

I mostly use mobile. I can barely read a reply (small font). Can't tell which sections have new content. If it takes me longer to find content or view content, I will come here less. Most times I only have a few minutes to browse and this new format takes longer and is more difficult to find what I want to read.

A lot of people use their home computers to access this site, you CAN'T leave them behind, they'll just stop coming here. Still looks dumb as shit, you're already losing users. |
