Just a heads up on some forum updates I've done.
- You'll notice a quick reply box at the bottom of this post. Ya'll know what this is, so no explanation needed.
- The looks of the forums have been cleaned up a bit.
- I added the ability to subscribe to threads. In the OP, you'll notice a "SUBSCRIBE" button. Click that and you'll be subscribed to a thread.
If you go to your user home page, you'll notice a link titled "View Forum Thread Subscriptions". Click that and you'll see your subscriptions. Included, also, is a number that shows how many replies have been made since your subscription.
Right now it doesn't update the subscription at all. I'm thinking about making it so that when you view a thread, it updates the subscription status. This makes it so when you view your subscriptions page, it shows how many replies have been made since you last viewed the thread. Let me know what you think.
- Misc bugs around the site have been fixed.
A majority of the work was behind the scenes. While it doesn't look like much has changed, the entire codebase was redone. First off, the new code is much quicker. Secondly, it's a lot easier to maintain and add features to. Win-win.
Next on my list is Post History. After that, I'm going to focus on another feature of the site that Andy and I have been discussing. If you can think of anything that is vital that should be done before I move to another section, chime in.
Your faithful delivery guy,
pizza
