Our Fresh New Look Is Here

@lkg4answers She is on staff with CC and compiles articles. The Forum Champion team is supposed to help link relevant articles from the database but I haven’t really done that yet

** You know that actually helps **

@ucbalumnus I poked around in the source code and found the custom theme, which is copyrighted by a specific designer at Vanilla. I could still be wrong, of course, just enjoying some amateur sleuthing :slight_smile:

Of course, if the forum site owners outsourced the reskin to Vanilla Forums or specific people at Vanilla Forums, they still had to have given a general idea of what they wanted the web page designers to make, and approved the result before it went live.

Bold type should be the default.

OMG that activity page!!! Not ok!!!

The bold is a lot of contrast.
…someone had to say it.

Isn’t there a way to set how high the contrast is, in bold? Or is that not on a browser?

** Ya, the activity page is a riot - with the same people getting acknoweldged for 4, 5, and 6 years! I get a kick out of the “Most Helpful in this Category” which I seem to run into randomly on the right side of certain pages with no reference to which “Category” those “Most Helpful” are actually most helpful. And I’m with @thumper1 on those kind of lists - ick!

Back to my porch, but I do love this thread. It seems to be the last bastion for the regulars, at least, that I have found. **

How fun is this! Always learn something new on CC! Love the new default font! **

Yeah, the bold is a non-starter IMO. It looks terrible on a laptop.

Let’s boldface every reply just to make a point.

I see my number of replies and discussions have disappeared in above post. . I think it’s a conspiracy.
Aha! Only happens if you edit a post.

My question is why don’t they keep the old format and just add photo/pdf/attachement support? Was it discussed in prior post?

And if you edit a post there’s no date at all!!

**The bold works for me. :smile: **

** where is this activity page everyone talks about? Link pls? **

I learned something today ?

@10s4life It’s on the right side/column of this page under “Highlights”

@10s4life

So you are supposed to push/link to those generic articles? Or those the articles in the database? As a volunteer? For some reason this surprises me a bit (although I don’t know why; nothing should really surprise me any more with the administration of this site). So you are supposed to contribute to the (rapidly) increasing uselessness of this site?

so they can change something—my post reply numbers magically reappeared on my edited posts plus the date too. Too bad. I was happier without the post counts showing.
Now put the date at the top
