Also, some info missing under the avatar, just favourite player though i think you doing a facebook on us, not informing of change? Maybe should have explained up front . Because of the problems with the site crashing due to high usage (still not completely resolved but should be very soon) we decided to put it into what's called "performance mode" for the duration of the game and for a while after. How it works... "If you receive a sudden influx of traffic, you can use this feature to address the spike in activity quickly. ..disable many of the slightly more resource intensive features of the site that are not fully critical to the site's operation. Examples include private conversations and searching." Seems to have worked because we made it through the day in one piece . Be back to normal in a bit.

Matt Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 anyone else having trouble with the "remember me" function not remembering you when logging in? Ive had to log in twice so far today. Not a big deal but a little irritating.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Oh! had an idea! Is it possible to have an optional 'preview' button as well as post? This way we would be able to see how it would look if its posted and make any corrections before actually posting. Just a thought....

This way we would be able to see how it would look if its posted and make any corrections before actually posting. Just a thought.... If you use "Add reply" instead of using the fast reply box you get the preview option. Or, if you use the fast reply and want a preview, click "use full editor" and again it'll give you the option .

Matt Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 (edited) right, next one boys! using FF and shoutbox often has "nopermissionnopermissionnopermissionnopermission" along the top. Anything that was in the box to shout is lost. Getting a tad annoyin that.... apologies for all the complaints, but i am a system tester!

Matt Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 how come whenever i get a notification of a personal conversation/pm etc im notified in 3 places? Oh, and i have to click on all 3 to get rid of them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 You don't actually, use the one in the top right - it'll get rid of them all at once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 just an idea, maybe have down the right-hand side a live update of topics as theyre responded too? Might be server heavy though but an idea none the less! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 oh, and sorting the shoutbox out! this thing is driving me nuts! 1st shout gets lost somewhere and cant shout another without refreshing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 Just seen that on the wbazone.com site that you get a warning when posting on a thread if another reply has been made during the time you were writing yours. Nice touch that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice touch that... Another (non-football related) forum that I use has the same thing....different template to ours though (Simple Machines Forum,same as the WBA one I see) so I don't know if it's possible with our software.

Matt Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Just a thought.... At work if we want to open up a system complaint we are forced to make a search with a keyword before we can create a new complaint, to make sure it hasnt been opened before by someone else etc. Could it be possible here too? Its a pain in the ass but on here it would force people to actually look for existing threads first.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
