Alert notifications apparently randomly show or not. Alerts are there when clicking on bell, but sometimes numbers on it show, sometimes not.

Also, any way to get pop up notifications again?

@Niall This is a bit of a weird one but the CL Group Stages thread wasn't showing up on my home page when the last post was made by an ignored member. Edit: I've just checked some other threads on the home page with incognito mode, and this is 100% an issue when the last post is made by an ignored member

Also it would be great if it wasn't shown when an ignored member was quoted by someone, even if the contents aren't shown.

Great work regardless!

Can the "..." be fixed in user's details? It occurs at the "location" section, the "supports" one and for users joined in May for some reason. I don't think it used to be like that on the old forum.

looks too much like a hyperlink (SPOILER).

Is there any way of making it easier for users to differentiate between the two?
This is done now, spoilers look like buttons instead of links.

Agree with others that the desktop version looks great, mobile version less so. The red banner which shows the red cafe logo, for example, is smaller than the black banners separating the various forums. Only incredibly minor but visually and aesthetically not appealing.

There's quite a lot to squeeze into the header on mobile - logo + hamburger, account, inbox, alert and search icons. Making the logo bigger would mean those icons don't really fit. Plus a nice compact header on mobile means more screen space for page content no?

Is the site bugging out on mobile for anyone else when you try to type? It keeps jumping up and down and I've tapped an ad a couple of times trying to edit a comment.

Cheers! It looks really good now.

A couple of further things, tough:

Since this morning, I've started seeing posts from ignored users.

The ignored user's post content is still hidden, but the post outline is visible. I always preferred it being invisible.



Also, is there any chance for an option to switch off the Twitter feed?



On Sunday, my stream was a couple minutes behind realtime. That meant I actually saw a tweet about the third goal before I watched it being scored. It ruined the excitement of the moment for me.

If it's not possible, then fair enough. You've fixed every other problem I've brought up, so thanks for all your work.

Thanks!

Don't know if it's mentioned yet, but it's hard to notice bolded parts in quoted posts, or at least way harder than it used to be. Can this be a little more emphasized?

Has anyone else has this "issue" when editing the Lineup Prediction?
It appears that it doesn't know that I already made a prediction. It states infos like:
  • This looks like your first lineup prediction this season. Please read the full rules first to make sure you know how it all works.
  • Select 11 more players for the starting XI.
  • Are you sure you want to choose 0 substitutes?
Even if the selected players are still checked, but when I edit one, I get other messages like "You must choose a goalkeeper. " and so on.

Edit: I'm using Chrome on Win10

Yes. I think we're still at the stage where when you first make a prediction for a match, it counts players as normal When you come back the counting feature doesn't work, so you have to check the numbers yourself. Incidentally, if you do make a mistake, select 4 subs or whatever and try to save it, you get an error message, none of your updates are saved and it throws you out of that screen.

The lineup prediction submission page now confirms successful saving of predictions. They were always being saved, it's just that the page wasn't saying as much.

And the unexpected errors saying "Please choose 11 more players" etc when you already have should be fixed now.

If you're not seeing these changes, please refresh the page a couple of times to make sure you've got the most up-to-date version.

(Of course predictions are now closed for the Astana match but something to look out for for the next match :p)

Thanks to this, I wasn't able to edit, as I was too scared to update it with those errors. Can you give me maximum points as I would have predicted it correctly? :wenger:

@Niall I didn't follow all the changes made per request on here but I can say that whatever design updates got implemented looks fantastic. I take back my RAWK comment. This looks like proper RedCafe.

Changes on mobile look great now since you’ve altered things. Much easier reading posts and thread lists.

what does each link to open post do now? I had got used to pressing the last post time to skip to the end of posts and selecting the main heading would take me back to where I had last read. These seem to have changed now.

sorry if that makes no sense

I thought there were supposed to be new emojis? Or are you sticking with the current ones. Like the site anyway.

It still works that way. Is it not for you?

I’ve had a look at a few more threads and it seems ok now. Maybe the match day thread was throwing me.

when I was clicking the thread title it was taking me to the top of last page

Ah yes, there's something odd with the match threads that I need to fix in that regard.

@Niall Not sure if this is mentioned, transfer tweet tab - we are getting notification when someone replies to the post with tweet.

Get this notification when browsing player performance threads even though the match has finished (can still post):

The Player Performances Forum and its threads are closed while today's match is in progress. They will open again once the match is finished.

If you want to discuss what's going on in the match, please use the match discussion thread.

Same.



Just to show two examples (check time stamps, both tweets originally posted yesterday) where it has happened. I've had 3 or so notifications/alerts from the last tweet.

it wasn’t so much the logo size but the size of the header being slightly too small. However looks like a new black line is running across it (I’m sure it wasn’t there before?!) which makes it a lot nicer!

Like the up and down arrows so you can scroll straight to the top and them bottom. I also like the feature where you can see who liked posts as this gives newbies an an idea of the quality posts that they showing be aiming for.
