text wrapping on links
text wrapping on links
most links ive seen don't wrap when posted and just run out into the right side bar, and aren't particularly noticeable. I was sent to a link instead of a "diary" earlier today.

Unnecessary step
Unnecessary step
Not a bug, just a suggestion. After I click on "more" in the MgoBoard tab I first have to view a screen where the board folder is shown and the number of topics, etc. This doesn't provide much useful information and just forces me to click again to get to the actual threads. Would it be possible to skip this entry page?

On page one of the board, the diaries displayed under new are different (I think more current) than those displayed when you get to page two of the board.

The ability to post external images/embedded multimedia in Diaries would be nice. Also, a tab at the top of the edit window which gives the option of wysiwyg/html like in Wordpress.

Improvements
Improvements
- You've got a password verifier that balks at anything that's not quasi-cyriillic as far as complexity goes, and then, once registered, your password is sent in *clear text* back at you. This is a bit ridiculous. If you want me using a strong password, don't send it out over the ether.
- The ad on the top of the page should either be centered or left aligned with the rest of the page content. Right now, it's off completely on the left and looks bad.
- The non-active tab background for the Diaries/MGoBoard/etc modules is a ghastly shade of blue that has nothing in common with the rest of the site and is distracting. I'd suggest dark gray or something similar.
- Once you've scrolled down past the point where sidebars end, post text just floats and looks sloppy. Case in point, the banner voting posts -- they're just a jumble of elements drifting off into space. I think the left and right sidebars should have a background color to them (super light gray or something?) that extends to the footer, so that there is some horizontal boundary to a post.
- Please please please have the new banner span the entire width of the header.
- The breadcrumb trail (e.g. Home -> "Crude Bug Tracking" should be in the center column, and not a part of the header. By which I mean it shouldn't push the left sidebar down, but instead should push post text down.
***
Otherwise, this site is a big improvement over the old one.

Out of curiousity, what
Out of curiousity, what
Out of curiousity, what browser/OS are you using? For me in Firefox3,IE7/Vista the ad at the top of the page is centered. Also, why would the banner width need to be 100% of the header? I can understand if you're saying the search form should be in one of the sidebars but other than that I'm not sure why the banner would need to be any bigger than it already is (30.8kb).

I'm using Firefox 3 on XP.
As far as the header goes - the gaping empty space to the right of the banner makes my manly bits go soft with rage. Especially since none of the prospective new banners integrate better than the current one.

In my first post (a comment in the"Perfect Weekend Trip to UM" thread) I didn't use HTML tags to create (about four) paragraph breaks because its stated this happens automatically. But I see my post is one unbroken paragraph.

Could we add the blockqoute tag? I think it would make sense considering the amount of copy and pasting that happens. The block looks a bit cleaner when the quote goes over a couple lines.

The ad serving is broken - the page will load, and then when it comes time for the ads to be loaded, the page goes white and it's only ads. If you stop the page loading immediately after you see mgoblog content, you can still read the site.

Ad problem seconded
Ad problem seconded
I am also having the problem with yardbarker ads on a white screen taking over the browser window after the MGoBlog page displays briefly. On Firefox on Mac OSX Leopard.
Also, more of a suggestion, but I wonder if there would not be a way to prevent the Popular and Hot tabs from becoming "All Time Most Read" and "All Time Most Commented" sections, respectively. Perhaps by having posts disappear off the "Hot" list after not being commented on for X amount of days, or in the case of the "Popular" tab, after not being viewed for X amount of days? I know it sounds nitpicky, but the features seem to already have lost their utility. Keep up the good work.
July 9th, 2008 at 8:12 AM |
Yep.
Yep.
Same here with me. Firefox 3 on Leopard (10.5.4) leaves the page to display ads unless you hit “stop” immediately on page load. Safari 3.1.2 doesn’t have this problem but is perpetually waiting for the last three page elements. Opera 9.51 loads the site fine (and in fact, doesn’t show any ads at all!).

Content still pushed to the bottom for me... one time I opened the site and it wasn't, but other than that, its been pushed down. Of course, I'll not have to use IE6 ever again after the month of July, so it may not be worth your time.
ed - sorry, was having trouble accessing other pages of reported issues, so didn't see that this was already in.
This is Michigan.

Diary's
Diary's
I noticed that my diary's always get squished over to the left side. One commenter said this happens when you copy and paste into the Diary. I always do a spell check on Word then paste over to the Diary. I guess that's why. Another commenter said this can be fixed by copying from "Notepad"....and that did work. Is there a reason this happens that can be fixed?
No question, Jim.

Recent Posts
I like clicking on the "Recent posts" link on the left sidebar to see what's new on MGo. But recently it will tell me that a new reply is in an old, old post, like stuff from July. Then I'll click on it and there is no new reply. What's up with that?
No question, Jim.
