Ah, actually, I do have a question.
I usually do keep up in the right-hand threads and have an inkling when a new thread is put up. Usually it's a "second verse, same as the first" sorta thing. But if, for example, a Veronica Mars thread is created, would I have to hit "home" and search through tv-media-whatever esoteric title the folder is given to find and subscribe to such a thread? And it would then come up on my message center, right?
I do occasionally click on "home" just to see what's going on in threads I don't habitually frequent. So this would just be looking through separate folders for anything tasty, rather than reading down the unbroken list of threads on the home page?
I'm sorry if I'm only at kiddiegarten level--I don't code, and the talk gets circular and I get lost.
If you miss the Press announcement (and my suggestion is, if you care about these sorts of things, read press, but that doesn't seem to be the habit), it'll always be listed on your profile page allowing you subscribe from there.
Yes, I keep up in everything yellow and right-handed. Ooh--profile page. I hadn't thought of that. Thanks!
I hit the Message Center link on the left hand side and when the page loaded, on the right side was
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: listgroups() in /home/httpd/vhosts/buffistas.org/httpdocs/main_right.php on line 3
I hit the Message Center link again and all is well now.
The Closed Threads folder is at the very top now? That doesn't seem right.
Unless it's an alphabetical thing, in which case it's still weird, like, "Whee, here are our closed threads, come read them!"
And nevermind.
I changed it to your language, DCJ. Do you see how it's going to require coding changes to make the page itself make sense?
Not really, but then I'm not that far into the coding issues, just the visual feel.
If I really wanted to get weird, I'd suggest a little more white space between the
Film and TV Discussion
and the
Closed Threads
links.
A little leading for a more open feel.
Film and TV Discussion
Closed Threads
But I won't.
ETA: fake linking appearance repair.
I have no problem with the folder idea -- I see it as being more a technical change than something that will affect me as a community member. But since that isn't stopping anyone else, I will chime in to say a)it looks nice and b)I'd kind of like a third subfolder for literary, fanfic, buffista fic, book club and GWW, with "reading and writing" as the folder name, just to make things more categorized-y.
Me too, Lyra Jane. That was originally suggested and it's still on the table, if I'm not mistaken.
Me three.
And... I heart the foldering. Heart it, I tells ya'.
We're funny. Long live our pedantry.
Thank you in advance Liese. You are just so tagable.
