The New Forum Software is *HERE* !!!!!
-
I'm very exicted to announce that I've successfully deployed the new forums software the test site: http://test.thedailywtf.com. Go check it out.
Some notes.
- On the test site, you can login as any account (pw=test), post any data you'd like; it's sandboxed and the mail feature is disabled
- Passwords and Profiles will not transfer over, so when this is deployed all registered members will get an email with a new random password*. Sorry!
- Anonymous Users now must enter a name and an optional URL
- Registered Users may "Troll Vote" a post. Five troll votes and the post is marked as a "Troll"
- Registered Users get three troll votes in a 24/hour period.
- Registered Users may opt to display the Troll posts.
- The database is a snapshot from sometime on sunday.
Please test this out and make sure it does what you think it should do. I'd like to migrate this weekend, but don't want to run into hitches, especially with the RSS feed. The RSS looks fine to me, though.
Post comments/bugs/suggestions on this thread. I look forward to hearing from you!!!
* The passwords thing has to do with the fact that they changed password hashing techniques. Ugh!
-
Bug - On ShowPost.aspx, the first post should be top aligned to ligh up with the "Sponsored By".
-
In addition to troll post can we get a "basement dweller attempting to get into katja's panties" button as well?

I couldn't get emoticons to work. [|-)]
The requirement for a name needs better UI. An error message for
example, instead of just reloading the page when I hit the preview or
post buttons.
-
Can't log in, attempted to post anonymously, just brings be back to the post screen, no errors, no messages.
It seems worse, to me.
-
Attempted to post a new thread, w/o a subject. Brings me straight back
to the post screen, No messages. Took me a while to figure out I wasn't
including a subject.

It seems worse, to me.I'll try to fix the validation thing ... but how come you couldn't log in? Did you try "test" as your password? Could you tell the steps to repro?
-
At first, I had my name wrong... Had sent the e-mail to get my
password.. and after that my real log in "Mike R" didn't work ... :(

What was that alternate software, anyways?

Toasting in epic bread

MAKING THIS SHOW UP
Solution Manager has a resolution to your problems:
Use the "Normal" Notification level for this Topic. It will only notify you if you are @mentioned, specifically replied to, or quoted.

Damn you guys, I even clicked the link!
The best part is that the link still works (well, in that it isn't a
404
).
-
Somebody should click the troll button on @JBert (and @Luhmann)!
Edit: Also, @Lorne_Kates should see this thread again.
-
I agree.

Fuck you for making me think nodebb was getting deployed! I was confused as fuck for a moment there.
Now I'm sad because the new shiny forum software hasn't arrived yet.
-
the new shiny forum software hasn't arrived yet.
Oh it arrived. Long ago. It has since been rubbed and coddled and stricken enough to be revealed for the turd it really was.
-
I meant the new new shiny forum software. The one that still has the new forum software smell about it. Not the one that smells like something the dog ate, pooped out, ate again and them vomited up on the living room rug...
-
(and @Luhmann)!
strangely I landed here by following a unread post links and not the notification.
