QQ downtime for XenForo 2 implementation

I'd be surprised if the if the folks running the show aren't working on refining the themes, a lot of people are commenting on how much they hate the new look, but I've seen bits and pieces changing subtly since the reboot.

Rip, Wow reaction, you were taken before your time and will be missed T-T
 
I'm fairly sure these are the base default themes. All the very nice and swanky ones we had on Xenforo 1 were built, so it'll just take a little time for new ones to get put together here as well. Given the forum needed to move over to Xenforo 2, and finally did so less than 12 hours ago, I imagine that there are some other things more immediately relevant being looked at right now, but in time we should get something else.

I will be the first person to propose doing what Sufficient Velocity made and then fucked up by dumpstering; we need a Black & Orange halloween-esque theme. It looked gorgeous and worked really well for prolonged use when SV made it years ago, and it is a travesty that they've only broke it out 1 or 2 times since then, and only for a day.

Is the site logo supposed to be this tiny?

Woops, just found the XF2 feedback thread.

The BB code for Tabs seems to not be working. Hopefully that gets fixed.
 
For those looking for the feedback thread

XF2 transition feedback

As I'm sure you've all noticed, we've upgraded the site to Xenforo 2. There's a new set of styles and new frontend all around. Development on the XF2 deployment remains ongoing; we'll be tweaking styles and fixing issues. Please post any issues you come across, as well as general feedback on...

This. 100% this! I feel like I'm in The Shinning and that banner is "Here's Johnny-ing" into my space something fierce.

I'm tech terrible so any advice on fixing this would be appreciated.

So, I think I've found the solution to this. Beside your username, you should see the fontsize icon (the T with the up and down arrows beside it), tap that and you can drop the font to something smaller. I noticed it early and when I put it p to 32px I got a similar result to what you two are describing.

A lot of it is that people get used to a style and they don't like it being changed. Personally I just use tampermonkey to make minor edits to suit my tastes. I couldn't find any options to remove the header across the top(I despise fixed position headers), so a quick css change to change it's position and I'm good. I may adjust some colors to make the text less grey on grey as well.
 
Dark mode having white on black when writing a reply but light gray on darker grey when posted makes me hate it a lot more than if it was light gray on dark gray all around. Feels like a taunt' "We COULD do white on black, but we're not." Xenforo default dark theme sucks, man.

I am in love with the new update. Better reading experience, search function. filter and tags. For everyone complaining about the Dark Theme, I admit its gray-awful however, it can be easily fixed:

darkreader.org

Dark Reader — dark theme for every website

Dark mode on all websites. Care your eyes, use Dark Reader for night and daily browsing. For Chrome and Firefox, Edge and Safari.
darkreader.org darkreader.org

I do not want a '1 browser fix it yourself solution'... I would like a site wide solution that carries over across every computer and mobile device I use.

It's what I'm looking for here with a Style update.


... and Browsing QQ right now is hurting my eyes.

The problem is that it used to show up at both the top and bottom of the page, and now it's just at the top of the page.

I'm sure they'll get it fixed. They've already managed to do something about the themes. We've got Darkened Green back again. Though admittedly it still doesn't quite match clean look of old QQ yet.
 
Cool, the blackened green is really nice and close to what I was looking for, though I hope we get the blackened orange we used to have lol. It's awesome you guys are working so hard to make this a smooth experience for everyone and I really appreciate the responsiveness. I'm sure this is really overwhelming with everyone commenting.

Edit: Blackened High Contrast is great, now we just need Blackened High Contrast Orange lmao.

The XF2 transition broke a feature: We can't access the list of threat created by a person through their profile anymore.

Go to the profile and click the Find button. That'll bring up a drop-down menu with the options to either find all posts or find all threads.

According to my half-remembered knowledge of CSS, it's probably using some sort of "float" setting. That might make turning off the following behavior, while leaving it at the top of the page, a bit easier?
 
Probably has already been reported but there's a bug when clicking the box 'Update your status' that spawns another box when clicking on it.
 
Thank you staff-senpais for getting the old theme back. All is right in the world now.
 
Does anyone know why so many stories that were in my "watched threads" list are gone now? Some of them I don't even remember the names of anymore… how will I find them again?

On that page, it currently defaults to having a filter that only shows threads that have unread content. If you look, there should be a "Show Only: Unread" with an 'x' next to it. Click that 'button to remove the filter.

Click the thing that says "Watched" in the top bar, that'll show you your watched threads that have unread posts, then if you want to see the full list click on the button on the top of that list that says "Show only: Unread" to turn that off and see the full list.
 
Ever since the update I've been getting an alert every single time someone posts in a Thread.

Every. Single. Time. No matter how minor the post or how long its been since I last viewed the thread in question. This didn't happen before the update, and in the last 10 minutes I've gotten somewhere between 20 and 30 alerts about random people responding to threads I've watched. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Edit: I think i fixed it.
