New forum software

[Gordyola]

Great work Ric and team, appreciate all you do so that we can all chat rubbish, thanks
I cant find the shorcut to show the forums list is it no longer available?

Think it looks great and works which is the key bit.

It will have also cost a bit so thanks for that given it costs us fuck all to use and enjoy.

The one thing that strikes me is that the fonts are sharper and overall it looks cleaner.

On a phone it’s the three horizontal lines to the left of logo, and then click ‘forums’

Try the following:-

Add Bluemoon as an app

Posted this in another thread, but thought it was probably worth a sticky too for anyone not familiar with how to do this. On Android (using Chrome): Open the Chrome browser and go to the website of the PWA you want to install. Tap the three-dot menu (overflow menu) in the top right corner...

forums.bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk

Thanks for that, everyday is a school day.

Looks really nice. My only gripe is that you have to scroll to the top of the page to go to 'unread'. 'twas nice at the bottom. Thanks Ric for all your hard work.

As I’ve previously mentioned to @Ric, 99.9% of my usage is landscape on iPad Pro, and it’s barely any different to the old forum for me.

I reckon the only kind of comment I’ve seen on this thread that I’d agree with is that a little bit of colour/contrast wouldn’t go amiss, maybe the alternate posts having different background colour or something like that. Just maybe a little more pale blue to break up the grey and white?

Mine still only gives me the first page and the last page as an option, irrespective of the page I’m on. Is there a setting I should be changing or...

I've managed to tweak it so that it's showing a few more pages now. Still not perfect but will have another play around with it later after I get some of the other bugs fixed.

I liked the 2004 version best. :))

It’s showing the last three pages of the thread on iPhone now so it’s a thumbs up from me.

I don't seem to be able to click on a poster and see what other total garbage they have been saying. Is this just temporary or did the simpleton in the John Stones thread get banned?

Click on their name,then click on it again

 

[Blueprint Blue]

No stupid annoying ads for the last thing I searched in Google either.....which is nice.

 

[BlueNirvana]

I like it, keeping it nice and simple. Well done all

I know it won't be to everyone's taste, but hopefully as we get to address some of the issues raised you'll start getting used to it. It's probably the fifth major upgrade we've done since we started 18 years ago, and every time there's a bit of apprehension at first from users. People are naturally resistant to change but adapt quickly. To be honest, I was reticent to even do it (hence why it's taken over two years to get round to it) as it's a shit load of work and stress. It wasn't done for vanity or for the sake of it though. The old software will become obsolete in the not too distant future so not doing anything wasn't really an option sadly. Will try to fix/resolve as many of the issues that have been flagged as I can, but by all means PM me if I miss anything!

I think it's great Ric, thanks for your efforts
