Announcement New Site

[Vollmer]

So, I did not plan to release this, yet. I, however, had a multitude of issues, while importing information from the old site, so, I ended up having to move forward with it, a little earlier than planned.

I know everyone hates change. I do too. Please hang in there, as I iron out whatever issues arise with this new site build.

I tried to port over as much as I could. I lost all classified ads, fishing reports, groups info, and gallery images. I do hope you all help to rebuild these areas, with new content.

Your login should work normally, with the same login information.
This should be much improved for mobile viewing.
This should be much quicker, and responsive.
This is far newer "technology". The old site was on some seriously old code/framework.

Please report any issues, or findings, in this thread, or email me at dgsemipro@gmail.com, or by using the "contact us" link.
I will address them as fast as I can.

Not altogether sure about the trophies.

 

[Vollmer]

Did you get hit with a ton of them right away?

Looks good V. Thanks.

Looks good V. Thanks.

Thanks, Davey. Still plenty to do, but I am chipping away at it.

Pretty sweet how the FaceBook ad is now 1/3 of my screen.

Note, one used to be able to choose to go to the latest unseen post on a given thread, has that feature gone away for good?

The challenge is that it is a responsive site (works on any size window, including mobile), and dealing with google's responsive ads is a bit of a learning curve. I am trying to find a way to limit the height. I will keep the number of ads as limited as possible (as long they cover the costs). Thanks for the feedback.

It should do this automatically, now, when clicking on the post in the "recent posts" sidebar.

I google NDA it still goes to the old website, I bet quite a few of the gang are lost and wondering wth is going on.

Maybe I'm the only one having this issue, but on my laptop, the profile pics for the people making the posts overlaps into the text section. Makes it a bit harder to read the first word or so of a post. Just wanted to point it out.

P.s. I haven't tried it out on the phone or any other computers to see if it's the same...

I "THINK" I have this "mostly" fixed.

Yup. Thanks for this report. Pretty sure this was my own doing.

Maybe it is because you spend a lot of time on facebook. Don't worry they can find you where ever you are. LOL

I like the new look but there must still be a glitch, one of my trophies was for somebody liked me
