Which browser do you use?

I have tested it in:

Opera 9.5x - Windows Xp and Ubuntu
Firefox 2 - Windows XP and Ubuntu
Firefox 3 - Windows XP and Ubuntu
IE 6 - Windows Xp and Ubuntu (ie4wine)
IE 7 - Windows Vista

and all worked beautifully. I have recieved reports it doesn't work in Google Chrome, but frankly I dont care  ;)

Safari (Mac default). I know a lot of people hate it. I don't care. I am used to it and like it. I DLed firefox a while ago but still like Safari better.

On Windows XP SP3 it works in Firefox 3.0.3
In Google Chrome 0.2.149.30 the drop down links at the top don't work.

Why is "Unread Posts" hidden in a sub-menu? When I log on the first thing is to go to read unread posts. It is a primary link/function and as thus should appear on top level.

If it doesn't work in Safari, than frankly, you are probably just screwed. Just use firefox. :)

P.S. I think the new topic and post reply buttons switched places from old one? This is the second time I've tried to reply and accidentally hit new topic. :/

I will look into this as soon as I get a little time. I do aim to support Safari.

No thanks. I like Safari more than the need to use the new forum theme.

now the 'unread posts' doesn't show the unread replies, like it did before.
so it requires the using of both buttons, what are already hidden a click away from the casual past  ::)

It is under Quick links now.

Quick links doesn't do anything for me. Literally. Maybe it has to do with my browser, I don't know, but since it doesn't work for me, using SMF default is still more convenient.

it's your browser. what kinda shitty browser are you on, anyhow? use firefox -.-

The functionality of those links has not changed (the links are the same).

I can confirm the broken state of the Quick Links button, and I don't use a crappy browser, since I don't use FireFox. In fact, I am using Chrome at the moment.

lolol It's funny because first you say you are not using a crappy browser, then you say you are using an early beta of a browser with tons of reported java and javascript problems! (Google chrome will not be supported untill they do a proper release - however I *will* fix the problems in safari, most likely today).

you can be sure that Khalsa is sarcastic also, since we are using an early beta of a website that now suddenly fucks up the good elements of the old one and quickly experimenting on us, while the "real" new site will probably turn the whole stuff upside down again, and all the debate can start again.

it like if instead of experimenting on MGdev servers, the developement process would change the master server every time they want to see if something works.

I found this one by following teh the electrodretch

http://www.webtechnica.net/demoforum/index.php?theme=30

Less clean but still it's easy to read content. And its much more tremulousish

The last good release of Firefox was 1.5.

Anyone who doesn't see this is suffering from fanboy-ism.

You guys can select the one of your liking in Profile > Look and Layout preferences > Current theme (*Theme link*)


It is above everything else and is in very small writing so look for it carefully. Good Luck :D

Can we get the Tremulous forums banner without the background? I want to advertise on my site and I am sure other webmasters would like the same. Plus it would look great on a wallpaper.. so many opportunities!

The current one is definitely sexier . In general, I think lighter colours suit better than dark ones (clan forums can be an exception) .
