Megomuseum Community Upgrade

[megoscott]

Getting better and better.
I am on my iPad right now and there is a small glitch in layout.
The menu bar just under the forum header pic...

...Library, Customs, Accessory check...then the Search box.

The "ck" in the word "check" sorta overlaps into the search box area.
A a result, there is a black line going thru the "ck" letters.
I can screenshot for you if needed, but no way of uploading from my iPad that I can think of.

That's ok, I know what you mean. We may have too many items in that menubar because there is no way to move the search bar. So depending on your screen size there may be some overlapping.

is that what 'liking' does? Link a post to your facebook page?
I obviously don't use FB, and am fairly ambivalent to the whole social sharing thing.

Yeah, your Facebook feed would say Archie likes a post at the Mego Museum...and then your friends and co-workers would have a little less respect for you...j/k

It's neat and helpful whenever people on FB or Twitter are talking about the Mego Museum. And when lurkers come by and "Like" one of our posts it's introducing Megos and what we do here to all their friends

i never was on a forum that had "friends" before

i got 2 requests

do i just click on their avatars and hit save changes ?

do i need to do anything else ?

ps,,, forum is looking more snazzy every day

Do you want to start a separate thread for feedback?

I noticed that in the "Mellow Blue" theme, if you go to your profile, the links on the left-side are very hard to read ("Send Private Message", etc.)

Also, I see: "Your friends list is empty" which makes me sad.

Yeah, I've seen like that before. I'm a member of the FirebirdNation.com that has the same one as in here.

I noticed we have "friends requests", I added some of our friends in my profile and notcied 'friend reguest pendings".

Mikey, have ya add me in yours or not?

Yeah, I noticed that and I clicked "Mellow Blue" theme then noticed that has dark green infor.

I use mouse to slide over that, so I can see it, dunno how to explain this.

I bet your friends will send "friend reguest" soon, click on the bottom right in the corner check box, click it and save.

We are retiring the old forum header, but still exploring how to bring back having different forum headers for each forum.

You're saving it somewhere in the library, right? Cause it looked cool and it's been a part of this place for so long

Try it now, Paul, that one had been bugging me, too.

Friend activity is cool. In your profile you can trim what you see to just their activity. Sometimes nice to know in a quick way what a select group is doing on the MM.

Well, I still have the file, yeah, we just think it's time to retire it. Not married to anything right now, but the current approach does make more sense as far as the overall site.

Much better! Thanks!

Maybe you should save in it the library together with the Greek columns from the early years under 'Mego Museum's past looks' or something. It's all part of the history of this place

[megoscott]

That's a good idea. We've done posts like that before, but they get lost.

What about the Custom of the Week forum header? Is that gone for good too? I hope not, I really liked that one

[megoscott]

Working on it. Thanks.
