Site improvement - Page 6

Could you add the "previous thread" and "next thread" links to the top of the page as well? Currently they're only at the bottom of the page, and if you have the posts set to display as "newest first", you end up reading from the bottom of the page to the top and then having to go all the way back down for those links.

Added.

This is a modification to something I haven't wrote (the forum is a commercial software), so I hope you don't mind me cursing you in the future, when I have to bring this modification to the next vendor release.

If you could duplicate the path display at the top on the bottom as well, that'd be nice too, since going back to the top to navigate elseforum is a bit of a drag otherwise. [Same for the navigation bar.]

Also, the title of the RGRN news archive is stuck on RGRA's.

There is a Forum Jump thing in the bottom right corner of the page, would that do? I'd really hate to do any substantial hacks to forum software, as they will fire back at me once I have to upgrade to new vendor release.

In case you mean HTML element TITLE, fixed. Or, what do you mean?

Yes, that'll do, but it won't replace the menu bar for different parts of the site.

You got it, yes.

I recently learned to use the home and end buttons a lot when browsing. Solves that problem too

I find the way the variant list is ordered in the ladder section to be quite hard to follow. Perhaps I'm the only one, but my eyes want to scan that list vertically, rather than horizontally, making it quite difficult to find variants. I would like to see them listed in alphabetical order down then across the page, so like this:

Angband Entroband Fury ...
AngbandTk EyAngband FuryBand
Animeband FAAngband FuryMod
Drangband FrazBand Gerband ...
...

Right, there's a word for that. I want the variant list to be transposed.

pav · May 30, 2007, 08:40

Transposed it is, then.

Nice.
Maybe do the same for the screenshot section?

That one is getting out of the hand, yeah. I need to do something with it.
