Support NeoGAF

[Loxus]

Is this happening every time you scroll to the bottom of the page? There is a new "full-screen editor" option we set up (but are still working on to get fully working). You should be able to press the "collapse" button to return to the default editor:

Done!

Not always, happened about 3 times automatically or could it be a miss click?

Thanks for letting me know about this new feature and how to get out of it.

On desktop: Those submenus only display one option, is this normal?

Also, on mobile: when holding down the react button to display all the different reactions, it seems to treat it like an URL link because it display the options menu with stuff like "open in a new tab", "download link", etc.

The submenus on the editor in desktop mode should now be fixed and show all the icons correctly.

The mobile reaction menu issue is still being investigated, hoping to have a fix for that shortly.

That was fast, many thanks! I can confirm that it looks way better now.

I'm using classic dark just fine. I just chose the NeoGAF Classic theme and under System set it to dark.

Yeah, I'm doing that but the color scheme is not the same. It looks nice, though.

We used to be able to ignore a thread from the forum page, without actually having to click on the thread. Are there plans to bring that back? Or is my sorry ass just not seeing it...

I may as well ask here, but did the option of changing our profile banner image go away? I can't find the option anymore to change it like we can our profile picture.

What is going on with transparent background avatars? Mine looks super weird now :/

EDIT:

EDIT2: This is only an issue on Neogaf classic

 

[Nankatsu]

I don't know if it's possible but here goes:

Is it possible to have a different image size and upload for the featured image OT?

I'm asking this because I've noticed that if OT creators tend to put their header images with a logo on the left or right it can get chopped.

 

[saintjules]

Ah, yes, something is off there and it's hard to tell at a glance whether I've liked a post or not. Looks like Like is slightly beneath alignment with Gift/Quote/Reply too. Will fix.

Seems fixed now, thanks

Site is loading slower since the update

 

[adamsapple]

We are still optimizing stuff server-side. We made a change that should fix this, please let me know if you're still experiencing slowdowns.

Been having a lot more slowdowns since last night, occasional server errors as well.

Things like opening gif widgets also takes 5, 6 seconds.

No ad-block or any scripting thing running on my browser.

 

[near]

I'm getting really bad load times currently as if I'm on dial-up internet again.

 

[Z O N E]

Yeah, same with above posts. Site slowdown on my end too.

 

[TGO]

Not sure if it's just me but there seems to be a bit of a lag in opening pages. They take a second or so more than they used to before.

Yes and posting replies, kinda hangs for a while.
And Yesterday it was like there was no connection, even reporting back that the site can not be reached.
It's better today though

Minor issue here, but opening more options for reactions on mobile now does this when you hold down the ''.

When you hold the "like" button on NeoGAF app on Android to change reaction, it opens the Chrome menu like any other link.

That's a great update, good job!

I already noticed one little annoyance though Palliasso :

Long-pressing Like on mobile (Chrome Android in my case) now brings up the browser long-press menu, which then has to be discarded before a reaction can be selected. This never happened before.

Nice, but on mobile if you want to select a reaction to a post, in the past you held down on the Like button. Now that opens the entire screen of options on Android. Like do you want to open this link in a new tab etc. Copy text.

No I dont want to do that.

Also the site is a bit slow

Using a reaction different from like doesn't work well on touch screen both on my phone and tablet, it open the system option instead of the emoticon menu, it never did this before the update.

What's the best way to choose a reaction now on phone besides like? Press and hold? Seems to pull up a different menu instead sometimes.

What's the best way to look at my previous posts? When I click my name and then click messages now (31,601) it goes to DMs instead.

On mobile if I click a reaction it selects like. If I press and hold it opens up my phone menu covering the whole screen for open in new tab, etc. Then I have to click out of that, then click the alternative reaction. Not sure what to suggest on that. Maybe tap once brings up the menu of all reactions? I don't know.

Reactions on mobile / touch devices should now be fixed. The process is different from before, as touch+hold is no longer supported. Now just tapping "Like" on mobile will bring up the list of available reactions. You can tap the same button again to leave a Like, or you can select one from the menu.

I'm still working through some other issues reported in this thread, stay tuned for more updates coming soon.

Nice, thank you for all yours and everyone involved hard work.

Guys, whats going on with the website? Its very slow and doesnt work properly

 

[ReyBrujo]

New Like button is amazing now! Amazing everything you can do with PHP!

By the way, minor issue: Was writing a message in plain text (BB code) mode, cursor at the end of line, I press the smiley button, it popups a window asking me if I want to disable. If I press Ok it changes mode, and opens the emote screen forgetting the cursor position and adding the emote at the beginning.

And repeating the previous steps, if I go back to BB code mode the smiley button is disabled, however if I click it no longer shows the confirmation, it displays the smileys but choosing any of them does nothing. Gotta force a preview or refresh the page to get the confirmation message again.

Sorry papito I didn't crank it hard enough, let me get back to it

Nice, I've been using the shit out of these since they went live.

We added a new option where if a user is in BBCode mode, and clicks twice on the greyed out editor buttons, it will prompt them to exit BBCode mode so that the buttons can be used. We had a lot of users in the past who accidentally clicked into the BBCode editor by mistake and couldn't figure out how to exit.

I did just double-check, and you're right that it puts the cursor at the beginning of the box when exiting - I'll see if it's possible for this behavior to be changed.

 

[GrandlyBodacious]

Awesome updates.

 

[Deus Mortis]

I see that there are 5 threads under trending, but we are no longer able to click on trending to get a giant list of all the trending threads. Will this feature be making a comeback at some point or am I just blind and am missing the feature?

 

[Palliasso]

imma test something real quick

EDIT:

yup, that still happens on the mobile version when editing a post.
already had issues with that when I wanted to add an image in an edit before... you can do it, but you have to mash the edge of the button and hope to hit the button just right for it to work

Since you posted this within a few minutes of this thread being opened, I'm going to assume that you'll be happy to know that this should now be fixed.

Let me know if you continue having issues editing posts!

 

[Palliasso]

Only quibble I have: avatar transparencies seem to be not working, not sure if the new themes support that but would love it if that could be worked in at some point.

Edit: specifically this is for the Classic style, works fine in the regular style.

What is going on with transparent background avatars? Mine looks super weird now :/

EDIT:

EDIT2: This is only an issue on Neogaf classic

This issue should be fixed now.

TEST


edit:

niiiice. it is indeed fixed it seems

 

[Palliasso]

One thing I would still LOVE is for Edit not to be hidden in an overflow menu on mobile. That menu has only that option, so it's literally pointless.

Today is your lucky day my friend

 

[AJUMP23]

Palliasso thanks for all the cool updates.

 

[DaciaJC]

This issue should be fixed now.

Beautiful, thank you!

Holy shit, I never thought the day would come. Awesome!

Is there any chance of the ignore functionality being brought back to the individual threads in the thread list? I've seen a couple people ask but didn't see an answer. I like having my front page clear of old threads, so it's nice to have right there on the main page instead of having to click into every thread to hide. Thanks!

 

[ハトリス]

any way to disable the humongous "featured" section at the top?

The ignore button has been added back to the thread list. I believe on the old site, this was only visible from the Classic theme?

Anyway, it's been moved to the thread's subtitle row. On the regular theme it's an icon with an eye and slash through it, and on classic theme it's a text link that just says "Ignore".
