BAD THINGS:
- There are no longer large page numbers to indicate the page on which one is, currently.
- "Search user’s posts": when I click on my post, it takes me to the end of the thread.
- "Search user’s posts" page is TWO posts less, than what's in my profile to the left of posts.
- "Search user's posts" page: Sometimes it says "Jump to Post"; sometimes, it doesn't.
- NO box, at the end of / to the right of the “Search User’s Posts” page, to type-in what page number to where you want to jump. The old site had the little white box, there, but it never worked (it always took you back to page 1); it would be nice to have a WORKING box, there.
- I can't stand all the flashing smilies, icons on the far left (on forum index pages); I have smilies turned-off, but they still flash on the "post" page. Maybe I need to turn-off JavaScript, or something???
- The post box is too small----there's just waaaay too much scrolling needed, EVERYWHERE!!
- Having to scroll-down to see "Your Post was Entered Successfully"----AGAIN, too much scrolling having to be done.
- Peoples' avatar size being changed----some are now HUGE, some are smaller than before, some are the same size. How do some stay the same size? Also, avatars are now moving.... How do I turn them off?? I selected "Don't show avatars", but I really miss some of them.
- I miss the smilies being to the LEFT of the post box----being at the bottom, AGAIN, TOO MUCH SCROLLING.
- What appears in “Preview” is NOT what shows-up on a post. For instance, I don’t put the heading of a list WITHIN the “list” tag, SPECIFICALLY, because I don’t like how it aligns. When I preview a listed post, it appears the way I WANT to see it----when it posts, however, it appears as if I DID put the heading of the list within the list tag. I'm making lists EXACTLY the same way as I did, on the old site.
- If you make more than 2 exclamation points, there's a space added, after every 2!! !! !! !! !
THINGS OTHERS have said:
- TOO BRIGHT----as in, headache-inducing bright!! I tried using FMX’s code----it didn’t work. I tried copying and pasting it, as a NEW code----didn’t work!!
- The font is too small.
- The quote font is WAAAAAY too small!!
- Age, gender, and diagnosis missing from profiles.
- "Custom Rank" (I read where Alex said it was coming soon.)
- "Similar Topics" is a GREAT idea----IF it didn't show EXTREMELY OLD threads!! ! People don't like responses to old threads, maybe, because if they don't realize they're old, they'll be responding to / quoting people who have been gone from WP, for YEARS!!
- I am seeing the SAME bad functioning problems as the old WP. As people having been posting for a YEAR (+/-), there was nothing wrong with the aesthetics of the old WP, it was the FUNCTIONIG, that was bad!! Now, along with bad, previous functioning, we have additional functioning problems.
- Pages loading too slowly. On the old site, once one had made a post, the post box came-up almost immediately when you went to make your next post----now, EVERY TIME you post, it takes the post box FOREVER to load.
- Ads WITHIN posts!!
GOOD THINGS:
- The addition of the function: "At least one person has posted, since you viewed the thread".
- BBCode allowed in signatures.
- The capability, now, to create folders in the PM area----BUT, it only allows THREE----I'd like to see at least TEN!!
- When posting: I like that I can highlight a word without having to move other text out of the way----for instance, on the old WP, if I wanted to highlight a word to put it in italics, but the word was next to a punctuation mark, I had to FIRST put a space in between the word I wanted to italicize and the bracket, comma, or whatever.
