    I also need to put the MTO Header at the top of the page. If you are on a member's forum profile there is no easy way to get back to the forum index.

    Regarding PM comment- it appears we have more of a FB style chat than a PM option. I will look into it.

    Yeah, I see the Forum Width has shrunk again. I will have to try and widen it out again. It got a bit messed up while I was trying to get the old posts to show up underneath. I will add that back to the list and see if I can re-widen it. #facepalm

    Email isn't set up yet- that's a whole to-do with the domain and so on. I am not concerned about spam signups etc as all user accounts, posts etc here will be wiped before bringing in the SMF database. Feel free to experiment on them with impunity--- edit/delete/ban etc.

    Hell, do that stuff (except banning of course, I need my three accounts (Root (Admin), Defender (Moderator) and Fred (regular member)) right now!) with my posts. That's a big part of why you are all in here- testing and training.

    I'll see what I can do about picture size. That shouldn't be a big problem.

    Private Messages were working- are they not now? I will send you a message to test it.

    Done?

    The @xxxxx is gone on Replies as per request.

    Previous posts are now listed under the Reply window, as per request.

    Multi-quote has been added, which wasn't requested, but I assume will be a matter of time.

    Quote appearance has (I think) been improved and is acceptable. If not, please let me know.

    Login has been added to each screen rather than just on the threads themselves.

    Dark Mode toggle is on every screen rather than just the main screen.

    I have worked on sizing the columns and I think they are better- let me know if that needs further tweaking.

    To Be Done

    BBCode has still not been enabled yet.

    Treasury Module has to be built, installed and set up.

    Smileys (may come with SMF import)

    Smurf Filter

    Let me know what else needs to be done- yesterday I almost posted this version in this thread because I wanted more feedback: https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,95315.0.html

    Give me all you got- this place has to be running soon! I know there is more than needs doing, so let's get it done!

    Message history is showing on desktop but I don't see it on mobile.

    Fuck

    Looking better now.

    Defender said:

    Also need to remove the @xxxxx again when someone clicks Reply.

    Yeah yeah, don't remind me, that's next.

    Possible multiple quote issue solved?

    Yup, definitely see it on desktop.

    Double fuck.

    Page numbers added instead of one long thread with 1,000 replies.

    Currently limited to 20 posts per page instead of 25 on SMF. I feel like that's good enough (for now at least) but it's easy to change is anyone gets upset at missing five posts per page.


  • Pfrsantos little corner of complaints

    Okay, I liked that, but if it's a pain I'll see if I can remove it too.

    Signature area should be smaller now. I can go a bit smaller if need be.

    Fixing the annoying floating footer now (hopefully) and then putting the light/dark switch on every page so you don't have to open threads to find it.

    Let's see how the quoting looks like now.

    Kinda weird. You get a small font line with the initial part of the post quoted on top and then the full quoted post below.

    Isn't it a waste of space?

    How's this for quotes now?

    @pfrsantos

    Yeah, I haven't really gotten to the quoting issue yet, which is why you haven't seen anything change there significantly.

    It's definitely on the list though.

    The Main Site at Multitool.Org is offline and has been for a while, so that's why that link doesn't work.

    The EDC-TV link doesn't work because it's .com and not .org, so that's an easy fix.

    GearFeed is working, so that's an easier fix.

    Need to add SAKWiki as well.

    Testing to make sure I didn't break something

    Hopefully we can get this closer to what we are used to. I'm not a fan either of the user interface so far. I know Def is working hard at getting it closer to what we are used to. Hopefully the software allows it.

    I'm also hoping we can get closer to the sunrise color scheme.

    I was actually happy (more or less) with these colors. Do we really want to go back to the various shades of grey?

    Yes, and the smurf filter too!

    @pfrsantos

    Those are the goals.

    I had started by modifying an existing theme until I got close to what I wanted it to look like, then decided to create a custom theme instead.

    I build the new theme and fought with a few settings, only to realize the old theme mods were still in place. #facepalm.

    Currently I am working on removing any duplication between the theme I created and the custom CSS/Header/JS that modifies the theme so I can remove the custom mods and just have the theme.

    I am also trying to clean the code and organize the changes so that when we have issues with something five years from now, we will be able to find things quickly and easily.

    Once I have all of that stuff sorted out I will come back and start dealing with the smiley box, colors, widths and other visual issues.

    The next step after that is to try rebuilding a few modules like the Treasury, and one that allows us to keep using standard BBCode like the [img][/img] tags you have discovered don't work yet. 😄

    And, at some point, there will be the SMF import, but that will probably mean shutting the forum down, pulling a backup, using the importer module specifically designed for SMF and then a whole pile of cleanup and config once that is here.

    And at some point, the MTO specific smileys all need to be imported and I doubt they will come with the rest of the import.....

    Dark Mode colors are shit. I know that much already.
