When I change the notifications preference on my account settings it takes me to a blank page.

IMPROVED! Discussion Forums Run Slow/Double Post

Dustin — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 12:45:00 -0700

Some of the forums and especially the heavily discussed threads take a ridicilous amount of time to load. Sometimes they double post comments as well.

FIXED! Slightly enlarge main-story image

HollywoodChicago.com — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 22:47:40 -0700

The main-story image wasn’t taking up the full width of the main-story box, which was leaving some wasted space on the right. I’ve fixed it so it now perfectly centers in that area.

FIXED! Reporting Spam

After I report a comment as potential spam, I get a page not found along with the thank you message.

DONE! Added challenge question for comments, forums

HollywoodChicago.com — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 11:19:56 -0700

In the past day, we started getting a lot of spam comment submissions. I’ve just added a math challenge question that’s now required in order to post comments and reply on the forums.

Loading on Dial Up

The discussion boards don’t load for people on dial up.

Body Text Box

Sometimes I accidentally click the gray bar at the bottom it keeps resizing the box but won’t let me edit anything else. This happens on Firefox running in Windows.

FIXED! Board Replies, Organization, Misc.

I know this has already been discussed, but check out that Spider-Man discussion forum. Try to follow the linear progression of the conversation, checking the post times. Then just follow the straight line down the page. It’s impossible to follow unless you’ve been consistently posting in that thread for days.

While we’re on the subject (and this is in no way an immediate request for overhaul, just something to look at down the line): I personally don’t feel we need all these sub-page categories for the forum. Their purpose could easily be done with tags; at the very least, we shouldn’t have as many sub-pages. It’s just harder to navigate. Personally, I think we should follow the more traditional message board format and have the most recently updated conversation put to the top of a page.

That being said, I do love the sidebars

FIXED! Archive Overflow

The archive is picking up all the discussion board conversation, pictures, video, and blogs and events in the calendar. It’s a mess.
