These features all sound fantastic!
Site changes coming this Summer
- Thread starter Niall
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
The changes to the match day forum sound especially interesting, at the moment I tend to avoid going in there but the suggestions above could change that for me and a few other users I would imagine.
I also like the Dons suggestion about notifications, particularly if someone quotes one of your posts. In the threads that get lots of activity it can be quite easy to miss it when someone directs a response or question towards you.

Both. Image resizing, quotations, replies to threads, mentions.
People end up getting butthurt. One forum I post on has it and I deliberately neg people to see who's cool and who's a big girl's blouse.
I'm in favour of it. It's great fun.
I know that's certainly all that I would use it for.
Aye. But between then and now, there could have been a workaround developed to end that
Looks very nice!
Yeah so far there's a lot of cool and hip kids getting down with my idea, while the fuddyduddies tut away and think of the upset.
I think it's safe to say that Niall, being someone who is handsome and down with the kids will implement a like feature in the near future.
Nice, hopefully Niall can get that added then when the change over happens.
A section that says what clubs a player supports like location current under our names would be a nice touch as well.
Is this another ruse to instigate another mass purge of unlikely characters, ala the last one you did in 2001/2002? 
Yes, I'm bitter about this too!

Excitement!
As for bans-unbanning, can admins change passwords? Change them to something else if so.
It looks a little too bold-type to me, but overall a nice revamp. In the 3rd picture Rado_N's signature doesn't fit.

Also possible.
What happened back then?Is this another ruse to instigate another mass purge of unlikely characters, ala the last one you did in 2001/2002?

I don't want a like based rep feature. It's good to have people take an opposing view on subjects in order to further discussion. With this feature their e-rep would take a pounding. Less people will then take the opposing view, except a few trolls who would play up to it (alastair/Scholesy types). Others will just suck up to eachother. It'd be awful.
Looks amazing Niall!
Is it compatible with Damien?
FM meets RedCafe by the sounds of it, I like it.
No surprise one of the pics has Nick talking about men wearing tight shirts.
I agree. I think line separation between the posts need to be more defined. I guess its still a work in progress so will look forward to the final look.
The features you propose sounds really great. Wish it gets implemented as it spells out. Thumbs up!
Great work Niall. Keep it up!
Good stuff Niall and anyone else with input. I am the first to say the current layout and look is absolutely horrendous. But I have grown to like it. Clean and comfy.
Can't say I really like the new look that you posted but whatever, if the forum works that is all that matters.
New features look great as well. Thanks for the time and effort.

I agree. I think it will further add to the "cliquey" feel some posters were wary about in the "Caf Improvements" thread in the general within the past week.
P.S Great effort on trying to modernise the site, Niall. Those proposals look the business in general.
Looks class Niall. The only thing I'm not too sure of is the 'like and points' thing. RedCafe is a place of so much discussion and debate and the ability to simply like posts might hamper that.
Looks Ace! The only thing that you should try avoid is the 'like' thing as has been mentioned. e-cliques will grow exponentially. But otherwise the features sound great.
Damo is compatible with everything.
Nialled it.
XenForo is supported by tapatalk. According to a development update the next major release will also include a new mobile style.
Cheers Wowi.
Looks good, especially the in-built player ratings/MOTM features. It'll make up for the disappointment of not signing a midfielder this Summer.
My only question would be about post timestamps. The screenshot in the OP shows posts with no posting times to them. Will there be an option to enable that because I quite like knowing the time at which posts were originally made?

Fixed.
I'd be in favour of that too, it really would help in WW games,which I take will still happen?
Could it be at all possible to have a post recommendation system as well?
Or has someone already mentioned it already. Might make the mods/scouts jobs a bit easier.( it would be anonymous by the way, so it wouldn't look tacky, but more as an aid towards the mods..)
wow that looks awesome!
Automated mod free WW games.
Really liking the look of this.
It's gonna be a slick update to the Caf we all know. The automated features will definitely make a difference as well. So many people have their time wasted trying to organise all that on here.

Not sure I like the look of it, might just need some getting used to.
Looking forward to the changes Niall, good luck!
A lot of potential for that to be abused... unless it is set so you can't recommend your own posts.
Personally I think Werewankers games should be outlawed here.Automated mod free WW games.
What about Werewolf games?
I've had a play around on the official XenForo forum and it looks as though any post which is less than one week old will get an automatic timestamp and day of the week. Posts older than one week only have the date listed, although if you hover your cursor over it you can get the exact time as well.
I like it, and I'm normally frightened by change.
