*** Your thoughts on the CowboysZone Upgrade so far? ***

I like the update.

Fine on my computer, almost intolerable on my phone.

What specifically is "intolerable"?

What specifically is "intolerable"

Only option that is showing on my phone is next page, page count is gone so have to go page by page when I want to skip ahead.

Hmmm .. when I view this page on my phone I see ..

[ PREV ] [ 1 ] [ ... ] [ 6 ]


.. where [ x ] are buttons. I see those above the posts in this thread and at the bottom.

If I click the "[ ... ]" button it allows me to type in the specific page I want to visit.

I believe on this version of Xenoforo, replies/views get rounded up to the nearest 1k. Is there a way to disable that feature and just show normal count?

I made a couple of changes that may have fixed this back like it was on the old site.

In all honesty I am a football fan not a website designer analyzer or anyone even qualified to critique this new forum.

I'm so antiquated I didn't even see anything wrong with the old forum I functioned on it just fine and would have been okay with it to the box.

The only little thing that I noticed was Risen's like count is not shown and I would think that this in itself is a terrible hardship for him.
His life's work has been kicked to the curb in the name of progress. Lol

Intolerable what a hoot

Be patient let the bugs get worked out

Intolerable would be no forum through the playoffs

GameDay thread?

Maybe it will just take time but I find it difficult to worMaybe it will just take time but I find it difficult to Get to the page I want

Like it on the laptop - not a fan on my phone!

 

[mahoneybill]

Takes a few tries to get used to. Otherwise seems fine once you figure out it’s no longer click a number, just type the page you want

 

[Proximo]

Looks like tweets aren’t showing up for me.
Anyone else having that issue?
Is there a setting or something I need to adjust?

 

[maryquality]

I do like how the pages/fonts are "bigger" on my computer screen without me making any adjustments in my settings!!

 

[Vtwin]

Have you checked it lately? I fixed that yesterday when another member mentioned it.

I came here to mention this as my only complaint. I wasn't getting the page count displayed on my phone during the game, but when I just checked again it's all good. Thank you.

Now that the move to new software and new servers has been completed and I have designed the still-work-in-progress Light theme for the site, what are your thoughts on it so far?


Common Questions

*** NOTE: I will continue to add questions and answers here as they get asked multiple times.

Why did you upgrade now?
We were having issues with a couple of things and the older software and servers were limiting our ability to add new features that we have planned.

Are you done with the new site design?
No, not even close. I keep finding things that need to be updated or improved.

Will there be a dark theme?
Yes, once everything else gets settled, I will work on creating a dark theme for the site.

Will there be a chatroom like the old site had?
Yes, we will be adding a new chatroom system, but it will be a few days before we work on that.

Will member stats be added back below the avatar/username/title area of thread posts?
Yes, hopefully. It will have to be manually implemented so it will depend on what is available and possible.

Does this make Risen Star a "Reaction Score" collector now?

does not fit on my phone well at all...

i do admit i have an old old phone.

PC experience = awesome...

phone not so much...

Were there site performance problems during the game yesterday? All I know is I was on my iPhone on my treadmill and the site wasn't responding well. I got some page timeout errors. I can't say it was all the time. It felt like the site bogged down at times but I could be wrong.

Can you elaborate more on why your phone experience is not good?

The more information I have the better chance I have of trying to improve it.

I can only speak for myself but I did not notice any issues with site performance yesterday.

I checked the server logs and server load on the servers was well below what they were on the older servers, though that is expected since the new servers are major upgrades over the old servers.

Okay...cool. Thanks! Probably just my connection flaking at the time. It happens.
