New Touch site

15-07-2021 05:59AM

Is there a thread on the new desktop site? I want to find out where 'mark all forums read' is gone.

Pages loading notably slower too. Ah early days.

Vicxas · 15-07-2021 06:03AM

All my followed forums are either gone or i don't know how to find them.

Also, a "lol" button. What is this, a MySpace page from 2004?

Press your avatar icon on the top right and then the star on the top banner menu that appears.

I'm going to sound like a right grumpy oul fart but my god the touch site is a difficult one.

Wheres me followed forums gone?

Do I have to request to join the soccer forum?

Am I the only one who finds it impossible to navigate?

Agghh!

jester77 · 15-07-2021 06:09AM

At least the ads still work like before!

stevek93 · 15-07-2021 06:09AM

My dark theme on this desktop is gone 😭😭😭

Gael23 · 15-07-2021 06:10AM

What a disaster.

Menu bars all hidden, search bar gone, no way to see post notifications.

Well done on taking such a backward step guys

Seems like a stupid thing they did, add in multiple clicks for a task that used to be one click!

Pat_bottom · 15-07-2021 06:11AM

State of it.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000 · 15-07-2021 06:11AM

On the upside I can see After Hours for the first time in 10 years.

YellowFeather · 15-07-2021 06:14AM

I can find the my discussions link at the bottom of the page, which seems to work, although I can’t sort by date yet. Made me realise how much crap I’ve posted seeing old threads. :)

Ah, it’s just nice to be back. Change is always scary.

YellowFeather · 15-07-2021 06:15AM

Awww. I can’t like my own post.

Piehead · 15-07-2021 06:15AM

This is utterly awful

What the everliving **** is this background colour. I can barely read it

cruizer101 · 15-07-2021 06:17AM

This is what I get when I click discussions, WTF, how is that in anyway usable

Nigzcurran · 15-07-2021 06:20AM

Yep same here, a shambles so far unfortunately

Necro · 15-07-2021 06:20AM

@cruizer101 switch to the desktop version of the site

Also 86 windows open? *shudders*

Vicxas · 15-07-2021 06:22AM

How do you change to the desktop version. It used to be hidden at the bottom of the screen now its just.... Hidden

15-07-2021 06:23AM

Don't often complain but the copyright of vanilla keystone should be keystone cops.

Site is cannot be navigated. Blue and grey on discussion is unreadable.

Necro · 15-07-2021 06:24AM

You need to do it through your own phone's browser (apologies for responding above the quote btw, just testing to see will there be ridiculous amounts of whitespace when I do it)

CrowdedHouse · 15-07-2021 06:25AM

Is the soccer forum missing?

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000 · 15-07-2021 06:25AM

Literally unusable.. unreadable..can't navigate the site at all...and the private forums are missing.

Initial impression on the touch / mobile site is awful. They have broken Boards ☹️

85 of them are boards pages looking for ways to Follow Forum. The one page is pawrn!

In all seriousness boards, can we please have a button at the top of each forum that says Follow Forum.

We're dinosaurs, don't be the meteorite that kills us.

RurtBeynolds · 15-07-2021 06:26AM

How to stop the pop up notifications?

Sonics2k · 15-07-2021 06:27AM

I usually use the desktop version, and where the **** is my drop down menu gone. It's such a quick form of navigation and it's gone.

TheMilkyPirate · 15-07-2021 06:27AM

The touch site needs to look like the new desktop site. It's not great either but it is miles better than the new touch. Everything just blends in together it's awful

Lumen · 15-07-2021 06:28AM

The patient is barely out of ICU and you're all punching it in the face.

Never change, boardsies.

petes · 15-07-2021 06:29AM

Someone actually looked at this before migrating and thought this is the way to go, it's actually terrible and will see an awful lot of people not using boards again. Before anyone jumps in and says 'but it's free', it's also the community that makes the site. New users will take one look and just move on.
