Gymnaverse Software Change

[falcon9]

First off… thank you all for being part of Gymnaverse!

I’m going to keep this short as it is a necessary change / update at this time. The site software will be changing sometime in the next week. As this change happens… please contact me at [email protected] if you have any issues logging in to the new site.

All site content (threads… posts… etc.) will be migrated to the new software.

The primary focus of this change is making the site easier to maintain so it can live on into the future forever.

Again… thank you for being a valuable part of this great gymnastics community!

Thank you so much, Justin, for the long-term thinking and the work of doing the migration!

I have discovered that I am a creature of habit. This will require a lengthy adaptation period!

I think everyone is. It will take a bit... but once you figure it out is it good.

Use the "what's new" button at the top...

What's new

I for one will miss the non-functional reactions and ads that took over the screen. But the XenForo switch is worth it to have signatures back.

Everything is loading massively faster. I just clicked through all the threads that were marked unread and everything popped up instantly (on desktop, haven't been on mobile yet.)

 

[QuietColours]

This is comfortable to me. Love having pagination over infinite scroll

It'll take a minute for me to get used to, but I like it.

So this thread wasn't appearing in my "latest" list, is there a reason why? Also, since all threads are new, you start on page 1, jump to new, but new seems kinda random. It was hopping me to October for the social media thread. Now that I've scrolled to the end, will jump to new take me to actual new or will entering the thread automatically take me to new now? Y'all need to start takling more. Make up some gymnastics rumor or something.

Ok, I marked everything as read and then x-ed out the unread and now it is showing latest which includes this thread, so, cool. But coming back into the thread started me at the top, not the end and there didn'tseem to be a jump button. Maybe there is a setting I need to find...

If someone (anyone!) can create a Help Desk, I'll be ever so grateful! And maybe send it along to the FIG WTC for reference!

The interface is much more user friendly and less "harsh" on the eyes, more modern too.

Will take a second to get used to it.

Also will need to learn the new shortcuts as :romania: is no longer the flag of romania. and :uk: is no longer Great Britain.

I knew those by heart! ARG

None of the "read data" was transferred over from the old site... that means that everything is effectively new right now. Read data is stored for 90 days. This means that once you haven't visited a thread for 90 days... it will take you to the beginning (post #1) of the thread.

Thanks for all the work to get this up and running, @falcon9 ! The layout seems quite functional and I really like the vault diagrams at the top.

 

[Rich]

Great thanks. Its already better.

 

[OnoNoKomachi]

Easier to read than the last version
Reminds me of the old board

 

[JaJa]

Big improvement

 

[ucrgirl]

I am enjoying the new board. So far I have not had the issues that I had before (difficulty in scrolling through long threads b/c it keeps jumping me backwards, adds interferring with reading posts). Thanks for your hard work.

 

[Gymnbf]

THIS IS SO. MUCH BETTER!

I am so happy that you all are liking it! I really think this site is going to become really active as we move towards the 2024 Olympics.
