IRON HEART FORUM MIGRATION - Help Us Make the New Forum Even Better

[Fl4vM]

Not sure if this has been mentioned already but all the links from the shop to the forum are not working anymore...

[AdamJ]

@Fl4vM we're aiming to get a fix pushed up for this within the hour

[ARNC]

The new format looks much cleaner and I’m sure I’ll love it once I’ve acclimatised.

One thing I can’t find - is it still possible to see who’s signed in at a given moment?

@AdamJ

Yesterday I noticed something.

Internet connection is connecting

Due to a loss connection.

Was in orange writing

Is that normal, or because its was launch at the time

[AdamJ]

@Kasi yeah mate, yesterday we had an issue with the servers trying to communicate with eachother, we have a fix in place and the forum has been performing as expected for the last 18 hours or so

[Kasi]

All good..

Was struggling to reset my password
But got there in end

Thanks @AdamJ

[PJ]

Yeah it’s alive

sorry, probably dumb dad questions

1. where do I see all threats?

They’re all around you.

[Matt]

@ARNC if you look at the upper right of a persons post you’ll see a little dot. In your profile you can set your status (eg green is online). Im not sure if there’s a way for it to auto set but you can manually set it from there. If it doesn’t auto set then it’s up to the users discretion how they’d like to be seen. I think. ‍️

Love the look of the new forum. Is there an app for our mobiles or just dial up the website ?

[Matt]

@AdamJ Is there a way to “swipe away” bread posts as you’re going through them if you aren’t interested? As far as I can see I have to either open each one to clear them individually or mark all of them as read.

[AdamJ]

@deanclean no dedicated app, but you can add to your homescreen for easy access. I explain in more detail here

[AdamJ]

@Matt if you hover over the avatar of the poster, you can click on it. This will then 'tick it' you can then mark all your selected topics as READ in bulk and leave the remaining ones you'd like to read.

[Matt]

Many thanks.

New forum is beautiful and so far working well for me. I do miss Recent posts showing previews of the posts themselves though instead of having to click in to them. Only mentioned because that was the main way I read the site.

Kudos to the web minions!

[deanclean]

@AdamJ
Awesome. That is better. I forgot about adding links to home screen on mobile. This will work great. Thank you.

[ARNC]

@Matt thanks, but I was thinking more about the list we had on the old forum showing everyone who was currently logged in, rather than whether any one person was active. Maybe it’s no longer useful if we don’t get kicked out after an hour!

[Matt]

I see. Yeah I don’t see anything like that either.

[AdamJ]

@Matt @ARNC would something like this work? I can't replicate the same inline list as of old, but could look at having a sidebar with who's online?

[ARNC]

@AdamJ I might be the only one who liked the old feature and it might not provide useful info if people now stay logged in. Probably not a priority!
