i have seen others mentioned this but only seen it now on my smaller laptop but yes in low enough resolution the sidebar does overlap the left hand side. i'm using 1366 x 768. if it were any narrower and the side bar would start to overlap over the users id box.
 
I hate that section that lists all the moderators who are online. I don't like any of them, why do I give a **** if they are online?

Also, I don't have any interest whatsoever in the bigfootynews or opinion/blog pieces, so the vast majority of the home screen is completely irrelevant and pointless to me. I now have to scroll to the bottom to see the most recent forum posts, and there's less of them? The whole formatting of the home page is pretty ugly to be honest, with the gigantic icons that clog up all the space. Font size looks massive too, don't know if that's great.

Speaking of the "most recent posts", it would be nice to see which forum the post was in. It will save my visiting the Richmond board where most people appear to be missing a chromosome.

There's also (as others have said) seems to be more white space on the screen. and more scrolling required to read the forums

Site looks ugly on my (small) laptop. Not sure how it looks anywhere else yet.

Also, I'm tired of having to see everyone's avatars again. Can I turn them off? I can see prettier girls elsewhere.

Whatever.

To the people complaining about the Staff Online bit, how often are you on the home page? Are you forced to look at it? Get over it.
 
Site Width
At the bottom left of the page you'll see "BigFooty Fixed". Click this and change to "BigFooty 100%" and voila - BigFooty the full width of your screen.

I've pushed it down the page now anyway.

Haha will say its better than where it was :p

Not that I ever minded it, I like the idea of seeing what mods are on, if I ever need to get in contact with one I can find one that is online.
 
Again, any hints on how to post code now? No longer works for me since the upgrade. Just trying to paste from excel, but the columns go all out of whack when you post it.

Try adding '=rich' after 'code' - ie [ code=rich ] (without the spaces). May still take some tinkering / may not work. YMMV.
Also try pasting it in BB Code Editor (not Rich Text Editor).

With the BigFooty 100% template, does everyone now have the left nav overlay the postbits (the avatar/user info stuff)?

If so, would 'BigFooty 90%' be a preferred option, allowing room for the left nav?
 
Chief the Alerts don't work as well as the old My Big Footy function. There are several threads I have posted in that don't get alerts but others have added to it.

And that includes threads that I have posted in after the change to the system

Are you watching those threads? When you post (more options...) You get a "Watch this thread" option. If you just quick-reply in the box at the bottom of the thread you don't get this option.

UNLESS you have ticked "Automatically watch threads that you create or when you reply..." in your preferences: http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/account/preferences
 
Thanks, but I'm not familiar with it - what/where is the BB Code Editor?

Clicking the little A in the top right corner of the Rich Text editor (the box you type replies in) will switch it to the BB Code Editor.

Yeah I had already ticked the Automatically watch threads that you create or when you reply... option in my preferences. It was more that sometimes I got alerts and othertimes I didn't and other threads I got no alerts at all.

I will use the Watch this thread option when I post and also watched threads function in the User/Personal Profiles drop box.

Thanks for the tip.

Nope, still doesn't maintain the columns...
Code:
Curran, Peter 51
Morrissey, James 45
Considine, Paul 29
Wade, Scott 29
Lee, Scott 20

Feeling pretty special , able to post without a like option coming up !!
Is it something I said ??

One can't 'like' their own posts. You'll have to find someone else to stroke your ego. :p

Flicking to BB Editor then pasting the data, then putting code=rich tags around them results in this:

Rich (BB code):
Curran, Peter 51
Morrissey, James 45
Considine, Paul 29
Wade, Scott 29
Lee, Scott 20

Obviously has difficulty with different cell lengths, and far from ideal, but may give you something to tinker with.

Rich (BB code):
Curran, Peter	51
Morrissey, J	45
Considine, Paul	29
Wade, Scott	29
Lee, Scott	20
 
Ok, I think I was doing it in the wrong order. We might be good now, I'll try it out, thanks!

Can we make that text smaller so it takes up one line instead of 3?

Same with peoples names..Instead of 2 lines, or widening the box, make their font smaller?
