Shockernet upgrade Questions, Concerns, Comments

Sorry all! Had to bounce the site.

It's not perfect, but when you go to:

Forums --> [click forum of your choice] --> Click little blue button by the Topic with unread posts and it will jump to the last post in the Topic.

That will save you a ton of time and is similar to that functionality.



Are you referring to the Thanks and Like stats?

The blue button is taking me to the last post in the thread, not the oldest post I haven't read yet (as the old site did). Is that the intended behavior, or am I doing something wrong? Going to the oldest unread post is what makes sense to me.

And yes on the thanks/like stats.

No idea; the 'gif' was posted from my laptop using Windows 10. I haven't tried posting photos or gifs from my iPhone or iPad.

Thanks, very helpful! I have updated them. Let me know if there are any more that are broken!

Wheat Wire WSU Blog can probably be removed. I don't think it is used anymore. The only thing I found doing a google search on goshockers.com was this from Sep 19, 2008.

http://www.goshockers.com/news/2008/9/19/1585866.aspx

Other links that are no longer used or have bad links.

On the left side, GoShockers.com can probably be removed since it appears on the right side.

On the right side, add links for:

Men's Golf: http://www.goshockers.com/index.aspx...spx?path=mglf&

Men's Tennis: http://www.goshockers.com/index.aspx...spx?path=mten&

Women's Golf: http://www.goshockers.com/index.aspx...spx?path=wglf&

Women's Tennis: http://www.goshockers.com/index.aspx...spx?path=wten&

Cross Country: http://www.goshockers.com/index.aspx....aspx?path=cc&

Track and Field: http://www.goshockers.com/index.aspx...px?path=track&

You'll also need to remove the "s" on Men's and Women's Basketball, Baseball, Softball, and Volleyball.

On WSU MBB Calendar, it says, "Events from one or more calendars could not be shown here because you do not have the permission to view them."

Thanks a ton! I have added a reference to this post on my to-dos!

Nice catch! I believe I have fixed this. Can you verify for me that you can see it?

It's good now. Thanks.

This is close to unusable on mobile.

This is maybe something you could do after getting everything else fixed and updated. The favicon that the browser pulls in from shockernet.net doesn't look that great. On my laptop, it looks like a low res picture of a tiny basketball. When I save a link to shockernet.net on my computer, the browser gets two images from shockernet.net, a 16x16 pixel image and a 70x70 pixel image. They don't look that great when used as a Windows 10 tile.




Compare that with the images the browser gets from YouTube, which are 32x32, 70x70, 126x126, and 270x270.

Another super nit-picky thing regarding read and unread posts. The little blue button that jumps to the first unread post works fine now. However, It would still be nice to have a way to visually see which posts you have read. Like on the old layout, I believe it was the time indicating that the post was made (example: "11 hours ago"), the text was yellow if it was unread and white if it was read. Could you perhaps do this for the new layout?

Or if there's already a way to tell which posts are read/unread and I haven't figured it out yet...

Thanks, Kung Wu. You're doing the Lord's work.

2. I would suggest increasing the number of threads displayed per page inside each forum. It looks like this is currently set at only 10 threads per page although stickies don't seem to count against the total. I know once basketball season gets going we could easily have more than 10 active threads at a time and I hope to avoid having to go to page 2 or 3 on a regular basis to view recent activity.

The board default is 15, but each user can override that:

[Click your username in the upper right] --> User Settings --> Account --> Scroll down to Posts per Page and change it to what suits ya!

Looks like there's a little misunderstanding here. You are talking about how many posts there are per page in a thread which is something each user can adjust themselves.

I was talking about how many threads/topics are displayed on each page in a forum (such as the recruiting forum) which I don't see anyway to edit.
