Captain Kangaroo Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 The site has been updated. This will add features, and also make it more immune to SPAM and viruses. While usable now, there are a lot of background things still running. Some features will not up-and-running for a few hours. Skins (colors, logos) need to be re-done. Some work remains. Thanks for bearing with us. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Looks good. Really an improvement on mobile. Question - I used the "new content" feature on the old style, and I see unread content up top. Is there anyway to filter out a forum like on the old setup?

I did the above one with the url link. You can paste the link directly into the post also. I did get an error once, so something is amiss. Make sure your image is in the proper format as the feature suggests. There is also a new (very nice) feature where you can directly drag your image into the post where it reads "Drag files here.."

ZZZips Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 ZW - This may be a design or coding error. I hoping it may be a user option/choice you can change in a user control table. I use the "unread" option every time I get on the site. In the previous version of ZN.O if you clicked on the title of the thread it took you to the last entry of the thread. It now takes you to the first page of the thread. Kind of a useless link since I am requesting the link from the "unread" page. Only clicking on the timer at the bottom left of the entry gets you to the actual posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Thanks for updating the site and being the administrator. I enjoy talking about Zips basketball with other fans. With the new change in the web site my name changed from 1981 grad to Phil. When you have the chance I would like to return to 1981 grad. I tried to make the change with no success. Thanks, Phi,l aka 1981 grad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to make the change with no success. I filled out a ticket with the name changing issue this morning. If they are not able to fix it by Monday, we can manually start to change names by request. Please continue to post any other issues you guys may have. I cleared out the cache this morning hoping to address some known issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balsy Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 This will take some getting used to, but I think it's again an upgrade over what we had last time. Things Captain and all those who make this possible! Sidenote: Has anyone been screenshotting the homepage over the years of ZN.O? It'd be cool to one day look back and see all the different faces of ZNO over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valpo Zip Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Thank you Moderators for investing the resources and the effort to maintain this forum. This is not an issue with the board but since I have not lived in Ada since 3 years and I now live in Valpo, would it be possible to change my screen name from Ada Zip to Valpo Zip? Thank you again.

1981 grad Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Thanks. I got it corrected. A long time ago I probably had problems logging in and created the second account under 1981 grad. I prefer to use that account. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZachTheZip Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Can't post to the 2016 football recruiting thread. Quote Forbidden You don't have permission to access /forums/topic/34376-2016-recruiting/ on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) OK, so it turns out that pasting a twitter URL directly into the comment box (which it automatically turns into a graphic of the tweet) is what causes the error. When I create a regular link out of the URL instead, I can post fine. Also, thanks for the name change.

You should just be able to paste it in, but members are getting a "Forbidden" error as of right now. This could be a server side issue, we are checking into it. For now you can use the "link" feature. I will update when the issue has been addressed. Thanks for your patience. BTW There are many ways to view the new site, as we all get used to navigating around, here is my favorite way to start viewing http://zipsnation.org/forums/discover/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
