Suggestions

Hey guys,

I Like the way the site has turned out, especially in its current form. Thanks for providing this site and the show to the community. There are a few things that i liked better about the old site and if they are possible to add to this version of the site i think it might be better.

1.First is the way the recent forum activity is listed on the home page subforum list. Previously it would show you the age of the most up to date post in the forum and what thread it was in. Currently it just shows the most recent thread that was posted in and the date the thread was originally started. I preferred the old way as you could easily discern if a new post has been submitted to that forum since you had last visited and was thus worth checking out that subforum.

1. Second is i cannot figure out how to have multiple paragraphs in a post. Maybe there is a code to insert a new line that i could use? Or even better would be if just using the enter key worked. I assume this post is gunna come through as a wall of text! If this could be added to this system that would be great. Reddit lets you start new lines i believe.

2. Third is, it would be nice to to be able to preview a post before you submitted it. Not sure if the reddit system would allow this but if it does that would be cool.

3. Fourth is, i don't know if its just me but i cannot seem to find the way to edit a post i made. read the help on that but i just dont get a edit button.

4. Fifth is, any chance of the more advanced search engine coming back or something with more options. Date filter, specific forum search etc.

Thanks for the consideration and once again thanks for the great website and show!

EDIT........ Apparently i can start paragraphs and edit when i am the thread creator. This is good... Any chance that these features could be added to peoples posts responding to other peoples threads?

Thanks

It would be nice to have a dedicated sub forum for site suggestions. It'd be easier to keep track of ongoing changes and it should increase the amount of feedback.

Thanks! Hope your weekend is awesome too!

Sadly no fishing for me this weekend as my girlfriend is out of town and i am watching our son (almost 2 yrs old) alone. I may try and take him down to the river to play on monday and throw a pickeral rig out and see how long he wants to play. I am however going up to slims cabins on thursday so things will be getting a lot better!!

Just an Update for everyone. On the Home page the time of the last comment is now seen. This will make it easier for everyone to see which categories have new posts or comments from the home page.

Thanks,

Hey Guys,

New member here.

I really like your site and have a couple suggestions from other sites I've been a member of.

It would be nice to have a member profile page for each member where we could post picks of recent outings, give a bit of info about ourselves, and kind of build an identity of each site member. They had this on a site I belonged to in BC and it was great because you could actually get to know people, especially if you were new to an area, that had similar interests and then PM them to make new friends.

That same site was also set up to allow a "profile pic" that became your posting ID. rather than just having a letter next to the name.

Just a couple of thoughts. Great to be here regardless.

One thing I would like to see is a button to press to see all posts made since your last visit or all unread posts. otherwise, this is a great improvement over the last site! Thanks!

Thanks for the input, we will check with our programmer to see if that is possible .

Hey guys,

Just wondering if there was any chance of a fix for being able to post in paragraphs when you are responding to threads, msgs etc. Perhaps there is even just some code that we could put into our posts to make a line break?

Thanks

ggpr,
Thanks for the positive feedback ! We will talk to our designer and look at the ability to accomplish some of those things.
We already have him working on the recent activity and how it is listed on the home page. We would also like to be able to see the latest activity from the home screen.
We will also also have our designer address the other points .

Have a great long weekend!

I like the new site, but I think I may have found a bug.

When I clicked on 'forgot my password' link using an Android phone (Chrome) - the screen just went blank - no place to put in my email.

When I tried the same process on my Windows 7 (Chrome) machine - it worked fine.

Thanks @newt, we'll pass that info along to our programmer.
We appreciate the info.
