Neil Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 All, After two attempts and many hours of upgrading the new aberdeen-music web site is now open! Please take a look around and let me know either by reply to this post below or by messaging me privately of any problems you may find or any other feedback you may have. I am expecting there to be a few teething problems as I have only had a limited amount of time to test the new web site so far. I am also taking the opportunity to "tidy up" the web site somewhat and the following changes have been / will be made: The Local Bands Forums have all been merged into a single forum.Users with 0 posts and that have not logged into the web site within the last two years will have their accounts deleted. They are of course welcome to re-register.The hundreds of banned users for spamming will also be deleted over the next few days.The Supporters scheme will be further enhanced but the price will remain at £2 a month.Unfortunately the calendar entries could not be migrated from the old web site and so the Events calendar is currently empty. Like before, new posts in the Gigs & Events forum will automatically be added to the calendar and sop hopefully it won't take long to be populated again. Please note that the list above will be revised over the coming days so please keep checking back. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Just having a first tentative fumble around. I appear to have regained a lot of my mod powers. Better watch out people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 First thoughts, the functionality is better but it's a bit plain. Also I like that I'm a legend and Chris is only an Old-Timer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOX Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Looks niceeee. Might take a bit of getting used to but whatever. Also liking that Jan won't have to deliberately sat his font to Helvetica every time now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 I tried linking my FB and Twitters to my profile.FB worked fine but Twitter doesn't seem to work. It comes up with this message: 401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

If so, where is it? Site looks pretty good though, nice work. Found it, must be getting blind in my legendary years... Also, what's the most accurate option for getting to the last unread post on a thread as I keep getting bunged back to shit from ages ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 On the subject of the mark all as read function, I would rather it returned me to the forums instead of taking me back to the portal. Yay for a mobile site though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Can you still block people? I can't seem to find that option. Nevermind it's in your actual profile you set it up if anyone else is looking for it. Edited January 29, 2013 by Captain America Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Easy Wishes Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 It didn't work for me either to start with, but it works fine on newer threads (i.e. ones I've viewed post-upgrade). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, unfortunately it appears what couldn't be migrated from the old web site is the record of which posts you have already read in any given thread. However, going forward the system should remember which posts you've read and which ones you haven't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
