DC Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Bro I used to run a really big forum on phpBB. My god I hated upgrading shit, it NEVER goes smoothly. Good luck! Also I hope the BB style comes back, or at least another dark black/blue style. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smooshman Report post Posted June 14, 2010 can I ask what the updates are for? is just cosmetic changes, or is there system/internal changes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

killionaire Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Temporary, eh? I'll tolerate this look.. For now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kriegdrache Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Not too fussed about the layout though. Pretty basic but big changes are gonna happen and shit, so I'm okay with it. Some icons are missing, but I guess that's natural, eh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smooshman Report post Posted June 14, 2010 the BB general and gameplay discussion have the bottom of their sprites slightly cut off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Master Bigode Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Please chance the site's charset to unicode (UTF-8). I don't know why but it makes pages load faster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jam-Kiske Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Pretty hype for whenever we get a nice new layout~ Will it have a mark forum as read function perchance? Cuz I'd really love it if DL had that... EDIT: Oh hey, it's already there. Cool. Thanks. This pleases me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skye Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Hm, I may need to make new buttons, but I'll wait and see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Urichinan Report post Posted June 14, 2010 I actually quite like this look, if we gave it a BB/GG look I think it would work out quite well. Though since the site is going through changes might I make a suggestion? I'm a member at a website called 8WayRun (Basically a Dustloop for Soul Calibur players) and their site looks AMAZING, everything fits the theme of the game and all the graphics are very pretty. It is extremely organized and they even have a Wiki for every single character as well as their frame-data, they have a video posting section (I know we have a thread but this is just a specific page that allows you to directly view the videos) and they also have a Javachat. (Javachat is a place where people can get together and talk without it disrupting any threads or posts, pretty much an AIM for the site) You can view the site here: http://8wayrun.com/ I know we can't exactly copy there site but if we could make something that looks just as good than that would be pretty awesome.

Kurushii Report post Posted June 14, 2010 They have a video posting section (I know we have a thread but this is just a specific page that allows you to directly view the videos) and they also have a Javachat. Problem is the majority of the good match videos for GG/BB are on nico. Can't view embed unless a member. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4r5 Report post Posted June 14, 2010 I've seen sites embed nicovids. And you don't have to be logged in to view em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skye Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Gotta script the embedding in, if I recall correctly, and most video sites have different embedding codes. But possible none the less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Circuitous Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Some bugs: /forums/index.php demands you log in. Logging in works, then it takes you back to index.php which demands you log in. Forum is actually located at forums/forum.php - is this right? Clicking [Home] at the top takes you to content.php, which I don't have permission to access. I assume that's the blog function? Boards don't get marked as Read if you read all of the threads and then return to the main board listing. You have to view the empty board itself first, then go back to the index. And, of course, Match Finder, Event Announcements, Site Feedback, Zepp Museum, Misc Fighter Central, Mu, and all of the GG boards have missing/broken sprites.
