New change to Forum page ( Archived) (108)

rizlared: the black background made it easier for me to read the text, I rarely accessed the polls or Blogs because they were a strain on my eyes. Now I find the same with the forum.
I think it is a mistake, but appreciate that it could just be me affected.

There is a block of colored buttons in the sidebar.
Click the bottom one ("Black Color Scheme") if you prefer the darker background for the page.

ConnectingSingles: The new system is LIKE or DISAGREE with what is posted.
-The up-thumb is to show you 'Agree' with the post.
-The down-thumb is not a dislike of the post... it's that you 'Disagree' with it.

You don't have to click them... but if there's a post you agree with, or disagree with, you may click to show it there. We think it's an interesting way to show your opinion, and to scan through the posts to see how others feel about what is being said.

The old Like/Dislike was a scoring system that was too competitive. It added the total likes and dislikes together and it was possible sometimes to end up with a negative 'like' value. It wasn't a good plan.

Let's give this a chance and see if you guys like it.
OK,fair enough!thumbs up

Will there be an edit button added so you have say sixty seconds to add or delete from your post?

I use preview to see if a video or gif or meme has been inserted correctly but I can't imagine anyone making a post with typed words then go to preview to check on typed words.

Re: ALL THREADS --- ALL CATEGORIES
Please notice the breadcrumbs at the top of this page...

All Cats> All Threads> Forum Help> New change to Forum page


-Click "All Cats" in the breadcrumbs to go to the main Forum Categories page. (On some pages the Categories page link is an icon of a house.)

-Click "All Threads" in the breadcrumbs to go the the list of all threads.

-Tabs to Country Forums are located at top of All Forums and Categories pages. We also added a "Mine" tab to take you to threads YOU have posted, and a "Filter" (icon) tab that allows you filter and find threads by several criteria

-No, sorry, edit will not be available for forum posts

- - - - - - - - - -
BTW, to find a political thread that doesn't appear on the All Threads page, go to the Categories page and click on the "Current Events" category.

This is a dating site, and we've found that most members don't want the All Threads pages flooded with politics. The Current Events category on the mail Categories page gives members who want to discuss politics a place to find them, without taking over and pushing down topics that are more dating related on the All Forums list.

While I enjoy the simplification....I don't like the fb etc line at the bottom of every page....I find it very distracting and I also don't like the round smooshed pictures.....beer
