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

[AdamJ]

@neph93 Yes mate, improved notifications is 100% on the agenda. As you say, so you can see notifications at a glance on your home screen, the same way you'd see an email or WhatsApp.

We're starting testing the new platform this week so I'll keep you posted

[neph93]

Excellent @AdamJ . Given the improved interface and general usability on a mobile that is the next logical step.

[SKT]

Veering to another subject here but I’ve noticed the forum has started to load photos much slower. Anyone else noticed this?

[tody]

@SKT I can confirm this.

[Kasi]

depends on speed of the internet always the case

[goosehd]

@SKT @tody I've been having issues too.

[Alex]

interesting, I have not noticed that, but we will look into it

[tody]

I noticed it in the hiking thread. It's picture-heavy, and it seem that endo has uploaded full resolution pictures with 6MB each. That's surely the culprit.
Is there an add-on for the forum software to size down pictures automatically?

[goosehd]

@tody That's where I noticed it too.

Edit: Thank you for pointing out where you saw it

[goosehd]

...also notice it with the motorcycle thread.

@tody so basically @endo should stop making everyone green with envy with his holiday destinations. Or at least have the common decency to upload the photos in such a shitty quality that it looks awful

Are you using your iPhone to post?
It's sort of hidden there...
When choosing a photo, you have 'options' in the lower left corner.
Click it, and you can change the size.

If you're on your computer, you may have to export the photos before posting. The way to get there will depend on the program you're using.

[Giles]

SWow, that is useful, thank you....

[endo]

ahh, cool @tody

[iammortalcombat]

Is there any behind the scenes function to add filtering into threads? Or perhaps I’m missing - would love to filter the buy/sell threads by size somehow. Lots of great stuff but difficult to sort through
