vBulletin 3

By the way, Jelsoft is saying that vBulletin 3 will be released next week. I'll believe it when I see it.

Running a private beta on this server at the moment though, it's quite nice.

Have to say I preferred the old colour sceme. Will things like the member list and who's online function be reopened?

Signatures have been limited to 500 characters. It was longer with the old board. Will this be changed?

BTW, ye can't get into this site using http://www.foot.ie, only http://foot.ie . I thought the site was down and only realised that I could get in after noticing it on a google search.

Indeed, it'll be made even shorter. Your sig is longer than most of your posts! :)

Ah come on. I've a really good quote from Marx on Ireland. :(

Sorry, I hate long sigs. When I get emails from people with 25 line corporate signatures and a message consisting of one word, I go nuts. My bandwidth is precious to me. I don't care how philosophical or wonderful the message.

Just the size of it... Imagine putting line spaces after that length of a sig. Jesus mine is long enough but I think anything thing over 3 lines of text is ridiculous

go along with that.you just automatically skip it if its that long.
i still read the short ones even though ive read them a hundred times :D

I like short, clever sigs. Unfortunately they're rarities, even on much bigger sites.

Think I'll go and turn something on now.

Avatars re-enabled.

WYSIWYG editor turned on. Abuse of the WYSIWYG editor will result in it being turned off again.

I turned on post caching too, but most people prolly won't notice this.

There's something by that name at the bottom of User CP > Options. Says it's the message editor interface setting. Not sure what it does yet.

nice to hear. boards.ie looks awful with some of those stupid signatures.
22/03/2004, 5:19 PM

Yeah, I have 'em turned off over there, it's just too much. It's not so bad now that I'm on broadband, but personally I'd prefer a nice simple interface with just the conversations.

Sure look at how long it took me to implement avatars on Foot.ie! If I had my way ye'd have NOTHING! :)

How come the Who's Online facility has been disabled?
22/03/2004, 7:02 PM
dahamsta

Because it eats resources. I'll prolly turn it back on in a while.

PM character limit increased to 2000.

The WYSIWYG editor doesn't display the smilies box. Can you enable that?
23/03/2004, 11:43 AM
dahamsta

A smilie selector is embedded in the editor. To the left of Cut/Copy/Paste?
23/03/2004, 1:53 PM

Are the smilies going to be reverted to being one coloour? Have to say I preferred them uniform...

Ah, I see it now. Thanks.

Maybe later, I honestly don't have time to fiddle around with graphics now.

On the subject of design, I've been trying to arrange a complete new skin for Foot.ie and the individual club forums for some time, however the responses I've had so far aren't very credible and I won't skimp on quality. Therefore I've decided to ask a designer to set a fee for skinning each club forum with club colours, and it'll be up to members to pay for it if they want their club forum skinned.

I like the colour scheme as it is now. A bit easier on the eye than the old green one.

Whats with the pluses next to peoples names in the 'currently active' bar on the main page?? Buddies List????
23/03/2004, 9:39 PM

Could be, or alternatively it could be mods?

Ye reckon so? I think the new scheme is boot ugly, the old one was far nice.

(and hi, look, a new, shorter signature! ;))

I'm not mad about it either, but when we get sorted I'll make all of the skins selectable, including this one.
