I'm glad that 'messages' has been changed to 'post count'.
'That guy is a good messenger' just doesn't sound right.

Welcome to RedCafe.net on XenForo!

Yeah, I'm sure something more suitable can be found. Perhaps even different logos for each forum...if that's possible.
I've seen that pop up a few times on here. Very handy as you can just click it instead of scrolling up and looking at the alert.Haha cheersAlso, do you have the CSS class #StackAlerts activated on this theme? Apparently when you get an alert it has a small Ajax popup box on the bottom left of the screen (similar to Facebook).

To be honest even bullet points would look better and more professional.
Haha cheers

This is active, I've seen it several times already.
Something like this?
They are from a test forum I setup, you could just have the same logo, only a bit transparent for, the alternative image.
Well done Niall and congrats Redcafe!

Nice idea, thanks, but using official logos like that without permission will lead to trouble. But something along those lines, with themed icons for each section could work:
- a ball for the football forums
- a rugby ball for other sports
- a newspaper for current events
- a steaming turd for the general
etc etc
That bad?Coolio. The logos for General, Entertainment, Current Events, transfers, you could use if you want. I have them here and I could make slightly transparent ones for alternative images.
That is just a test forum and does not get used, so you're more than welcome to the logos.

TBH they're still a little too cartoony for my liking, I prefer something a bit flatter and subtle
Drunken angel you're on the other side.
Cool. I'll have a look around for more refined ones.
Nice.
Is this going to be the go to thread for foibles and developments?
Olly, that is the sex.
Good job for the boss upstairs. The site looks very simple
Looks great, well done!
Instant Boner. Perfect, absolutely perfect.
Would it be monstrously inconvenient to move that banner ad from near the top of the homepage to the bottom? Perhaps you tried that and it didn't look quite right or that such isn't even possible, jsut thought i'd ask though.
Can you make font size bigger? Smaller than before on iphone.
Still getting used to the new look. As of this moment, I still prefer the old one.
If moses can adapt to the change, so can all of you.
Easier to browse on my nexus, I'm happy
Damn, I didn't think of Pete's RVP Champions avatar when reading about avatars disappearing
I misunderstood the "Like" feature, which I assumed would be like I've seen on other forums recently where users can click "Like" on posts from others instead of having to quote them "This", or post smilies or whatever. I like the idea of the actual system replacing the Newbie points system though, it sounds a good step forward for the Newbies.

I dont understand the 'like' stuff either.
But Pete's avatar HAS to be brought back at some stage by Niall when he gets to it.
Looks good, maybe a bit too bright and some of the features are fantastic. One thing though;
When looking at one of the forums you don't see in which threads you've already posted, is this going to stay this way?

Will Taptalk not work anymore now?
Good pickup. Didn't notice that as I usually just browse the front page. It also had certain features to find your own posts in that thread that way.
The user names could be a smidge bigger. In accordance with the layout of the panels. One of the good things on the old board was the ability to distinguish names quickly because they were big.
A ctrl+enter KB shortcut to post would be good if possible
Is it possible to have the jump to forum slide down back? It makes it much easier to access the other forums.
Ah yes, thanks. Didn't notice the small arrows. CheersThe forum jump menu?
Click the little arrow button at the top of a page;
testing! Great, found them !
Dear Niall,
I have been a member of flickR for 8 years. You may have heard that they 'upgraded' the site a month ago, but with HUGE protest from its membership. They did so without any warning, seemingly without testing with any senior or regular members of the community, most loyal users hate the new the design of the site and its also full of glitches and errors. Its a royal mess, and loads of members are leaving in droves.
On the other-hand, I wanted to congratulate you for the way you and the admins and moderators have gone about changing our beloved redcafe. You gave us months of notice, gave us a feel for what the new site would feel like, welcomed inputs, planned the day of change in advance which was communicated, even during the day of change itself kept us very well informed, and it seems from the first test drive that there are very few glitches.
Amazing to compare a behemoth like YAHOO getting the flickR change SO WRONG and yet the small and mighty REDCAFE got it so right!
By any measurements -congrats to you and the team. Redcafe 2.0 is a timely new era, executed to perfection.
(Hope the whole thing does not crsah now!)

Yup, well done Niall. On a side note, did anyone feel like they lost a part of their life when the forum went down? I felt horrible. In fact, I was surprisingly more productive at work and it was a weird feeling.
Yep, agree with this aswell, posted it in another thread too before I knew the existence of this thread.Good pickup. Didn't notice that as I usually just browse the front page. It also had certain features to find your own posts in that thread that way.

I like new things.
The new design looks great, site master. Congratulations on the successful migration.
Question: Is there a way I can directly jump to the last page of a thread on the home page like previously?
