Here's the latest on the Forum upgrade... Report problems here

So just noticed when looking back on some of my older franchises. Pictures missing. The old albums form the site have gone, along with user cp. Any idea if we will get these back? I'm guessing this is a no. It's a pity, one or two of my favorite chises are now imageless.

Can you link to them so I can take a look at where the images were specifically? They might have moved to a new location and we just need to make it point in the right direction.

Bumping my question. I don't want to create a big list of feedback and issues if a number of things are being fixed. But if you're ready for it, there's a lot of small bugs or quality of life things I have feedback on. I've been making more posts lately and there's a few things that are harder than before.

It won't hurt to summarize what you've found, for sure. I have a list that will slowly get worked on as time permits, so feel free and thank you.

Did you actually click on the thread?

I see posts on April 30. It doesn't re-sort the threads based on the most recent post from the additions, but they are in there if you actually click on it.

So, it appears these posts are there now (they were not there when I made the comment a couple days ago.

HOWEVER, there is nothing on my BLOG after April 8th, and when making a new blog post, there is still no option to turn on HTML.

Using HTML in blog entries is a big part of how I do my dynsasty tracking. This site is all but USELESS without it.

Like I said, it's F*cking ridiculous.

I logged in for the first time in about a month today, just to see if anything was better.

I see that my Tiger's dynasty page STILL does not have any posts after April 8. And the same with my BLOG. Nothing after April 8th.

This is f*cking ridiculous.

Steve - I know a bit of work is still ongoing, so I've been slow to ask about the status of things or report new bugs. Are there certain things that are still being worked on? Or should I go ahead and post requests/bugs now?

This is great feedback and I'll relay it over to the engineer. We are deep into a few other fixes currently, but will definitely look into these.

I posted some of this in studbucket's forum style thread a few weeks ago, but it's probably better off here.

Since it seems like most of the major technical issues have been resolved, I have some quality of life things. Most of them are first-world things, but I'll point them out anyway.

1. I don't know if this is a bug or not. When I first come to the forums, the URL is this: https://forums.operationsports.com/forums/ and the page looks pretty nice overall:

If I go into a forum (Madden in this case) and then click the "Forum" link in the top left:, I get the following URL: https://forums.operationsports.com/forums/forum (note the extra forum on the end). And then the forums just look cluttered to me with all the subforums.

The main forums and lasts posts no longer really stand out to me. It just feels cluttered.

2. More complaining about subforums. I'm using the Madden forum as an example, because it's probably the worst. But if I go into the Madden forum, I'm probably looking for the most recent posts. But I get hit with this:

OS_3.png
I have a whole page of subforums I have to scroll past (again, first-world problems, I know).

Then a wall of stickies:

OS_4.png

It's a lot of scrolling just to get to the info I'm looking for. It would be nice if there were drop-down menus where we could minimize/maximize things we want to see.

3. Is it possible to have something similar to this at the top and bottom of each thread to navigate? Right now, at the top you have to type in the page number to get to the last page in the thread. At the bottom, you can just click, which is better. But I think something like below would be ideal.

It may just be a me thing, but I don't find the forums as enjoyable to browse as before, even though there are a lot of great improvements (inserting images, ala this post, being one of them) with the new board.

I can only suggest the age old trick of "clear your cookies" and "sign out then sign in again". 🤷

Unfortunately it took me here:

Then I tried to find the post you screenshotted. There are no posts in that thread from Scott on 6-12. And here's post #97 for me:

But I finally found another post from Scott with a Tweet:

Quoting or commenting on this post worked just fine. Sorry I can't reproduce!

How odd. I guess something on my end is causing the issue but I don't know what.

[studbucket]

That link should take you directly to Scott's post which has an embedded tweet in it.

This is the post it links you to, for reference.

That tweet is embedded and I can't reply nor comment on his post as it just takes me to twitter/x instead, completely leaving OS.

So I didn't see any embedded tweets, but there were several images of tweets posted there. I was able to click comment and open the comment box for each of them and was able to quote them. I even left a comment on one of the posts. Sorry

I use Firefox. Do you have a thread you want me to test on? I can try it out.
