IPCT Major software update in works at IPCT

So are you no longer putting the date joined, location, message and reaction counts in people's summary for each post? I liked it being there by default rather than having to do another click to see it.

yes, please return it back unfolded.
information about message count gives information is this person is newbie (bot maybe) or someone with longer experience on the forum.
Also location is sometimes important in context of someone problem.

Also Please optimize skin for mobile variant...
Unread Thread list is not optimized for vertical space used.
it can be minimized by one even two lines per thread without any problems...
move message count in thread on line up (after group name), remove empty lines..
the group name is duplicated in second & last line...

The sidebar now appears every time the "What's New" tab is clicked and has to be omitted manually......every time....which is annoying, IMO. The old software didn't open the sidebar whenever "What's New" was opened. :cool:


EDIT: 10/3 @ 0556 CDT: You fixed it it! Sidebar does NOT open every time when "What's New" is clicked THANKS, MIKE!!!!!:love:

Fully aware you are still working on the upgrades.... FWIW, the formatting toolbar is greyed out when composing posts on Brave browser (Version 1.70.123 Chromium: 129.0.6668.89 (Official Build) (64-bit)).

Mozilla does not have that issue

Thanks again for your efforts!

Happy to hear about the updates, @Mike . Two small observations from the iOS mobile view:
  • The current logo used for the iOS PWA home screen icon is distorted and should probably just be the circle logo without the text. (By the way, using "Add to Home Screen" on iOS allows for push notifications.)

  • The round "up" and "down" buttons look squished vertically (intentional?), especially because they appear next to the circular "new reply" button:

I changed it back to the original as you and many others have requested! Thanks for your input, as well as everyone else's. I'm going as fast as I can!

I'm also still tweaking everything (including the dark style) so expect to see some more minor changes, plus I'm updating all of our IPCT Tools and soon will be adding a new one that has been in the works for 2 years! I'll get into that later on :)
 
Have you considered making certain elements (sub-sections) of the forum private (User registration required)?

The Chit Chat section (in my opinion) should be set to private in which only registered users (that meet minimum criteria) can view and contribute to

According to the description, donating to any of the three levels grants a user access to private area(s) of IPCT

Your thread should be behind a paywall :lmao:



But yeah there are some subforums that not everyone can see.
 
@Mike thanks for the quick response! Your work is greatly appreciated!

Is the focal length calculator working? I don't see any way to make it calculate.
 
@Mike , one additional request from the iOS side, please.

Are you able to modify the iOS PWA push notification title to remove the redundancy and shorten it to one line? Currently it says, "New alert at IP Cam Talk from IP Cam Talk" but "New alert from IP Cam Talk" would be nicer. Thanks!

As with all new things...there will be growing pains. I like it and THANK YOU for all of your hard work!

Still looking for the :puke: in the likes......
 
Maybe I missed it but can the spell checker be enabled and disabled? :idk:
 
I do like the new look, looks much more modern
 
Any way to add more width to the column highlighted by the red border? It would be nice to see the topic headline in full or at least most of it.
