New platform - Upgraded

[River]

the white gap you see to the right Rev is the sidebar, there is just nothing in it as you move down. WIll probably remove thesidebar on post pages for logged in users so it has the full width.

The grey margins either site are there to break up the white a bit.

 

[Rev John Ripsher]

Thanks for the rapid response.

https://www.networkrail.co.uk/running-the-railway/our-routes/anglia/lee-valley-rail-programme/ wouldnt have it,cant find a way to use post image location,also cant seem to make typing in bold work

 

[River]

test

 

[River]

How you doing it mate ?

There is two ways of adding an image, download it to your computer and press the "attach files" to the bottom left of the editor ( then insert them into the post )

Or press the image button in the editor, then press the link icon and paste the URL of the image. Just make sure the URL is the actual image though and not the URL of the page the image is on.

bold testing

Edit well spotted, will investigate the bold thing

 

[skiathospurs]

[River]

@admin administration the typing speed bruv, it's laboured and my keyboard freezes and then has tk work like a slave to try and catch back up.

Same on both my samsung Tablety and phone

It does look real slick though very nice to browse and feels more polished

 

[Finchbee]

Its much easier to deal with on iphone...i like it

 

[Thfcire]

Small thing but when you log in your name and password when you click on the box to add them they don’t line up straight ,that’s the only thing i see and it’s a tiny thing

I don't experience any of the bugs other people seem to be and the homepage looks the same as yours @admin. Looks tidy on an iPhone too. Not sure if it is intentional or not but the fonts that are used on the desktop site don't pull through on the mobile version - it uses a serifed font instead (photo attached - using iPhone 6, Safari).

One bug I do get though is if I want to highlight a bit of text to delete or edit when I'm writing a post (like right now) using click and drag on the mouse, the highlight doesn't show. It does function though just doesn't show any text being highlighted.. Tested this by highlighting a bit and copy and pasting it - it works just doesn't show me what I'm highlighting.

^ Hope that makes some sort of sense?! I'm using Chrome on a mac.

Yeah, like @wilson said, the highlighting horror! There ain't no highlighting going on when you are in the post editing box, the horror is horrific.

I don't like the font, really hard to read with my old eyes, too small and too poxy. I really, really, really dislike this font. Fuck this font, fuck it so much.

Did I mention how much I dislike the font?

Anyone else experiencing any slowness on any device ? Ive tested on iphone, samsung and windows desktop ( windows 10 ) and all seems ok, just want to see if its more than just one person thats experiencing this ?

Thanks for that, I had fixed the highlighting issue but hadn't realised it was processed differently on chrome so my fix hadn't worked Now fixed

With the font showing differently on mobile, yes thats what i had noticed. Might look for a nice alternative to use which is web friendly.

Think I found out why, experienced it myself a moment ago, I've switched our DNS back to my servers instead of cloudflare, hopefully should be better in for everyone in couple of hours once everything has switched.

Ive also changed the font, but not really happy with it so it might change a couple more times today

Still Jank for me mate....

If you properly go at it with the keyboard it just labours and delays. Could be my busted ass tablet infected with all of the internets porn...!!!

 

[River]

Give it until this evening mate, DNS takes a while to switch over. If its sorted by then and no one else is experiencing it then id say it could be your cache being stubborn.

I like this font, well I don't hate it, liking it would be a stretch to far for me, I have to have something to moan about, I can read this one without zooming. The highlighting of selected text works now so that's another avenue of pleasure you have removed, I can't moan about that. I can't say I have noticed a speed issue typing the old bollocks I type into posts.

Highlighting works a charm now - thanks! I'm not experience any issues with type speed.

The font you've got on there now (well at least the one showing on mine - 'Proxima') looks nice on both desktop and mobile for me! Much nicer than the serif version that was showing

 

[Rev John Ripsher]

I just right clicked on the image > copy image > paste. Took about 20 seconds to load.

 

[Rev John Ripsher]

I like the current font, it is clear and friendly.

 

[River]

No error logs so no errors triggered, could be a halt on the connection or DNS cache hasnt cleared from your device yet.

Also images are lazy loaded, so they only load as you scroll down the page so they may have played a part if it hadnt completely loaded when you tried copying, but i doubt that would have been the case.

Lazy loading is a good thing lol, it means that thread will load faster , will see if the lightbox can be enabled later for larger images
