@dc42 said in Sensorless Homing oddness:

I'm sorry, this new forum is a pig to use on a tablet, I can usually see on!y half a line of what I am typing (often I can't see it at all) and none of the message I am replying to. Anyway, moving the head a short distance away from the endstops may fix the problem.

I have asked @MSquared to look into how we can make it more user friendly on mobile

I am experimenting with something that might make the mobile composer view better.... You might see some odd things while I do this if you are writing posts on mobile devices

Great work on the transition and the new forum!
So far I'm still getting used to a few things - but overall I like it!

Not sure how configurable the underlying template it, but I prefer looking at the https://forum.duet3d.com/unread page to quickly get up to speed with new posts. On the old forum there was a single "Mark as read" button, on the new forum I first have to click the button, and then select which categories (or "all) to mark everything as read.
I'm also using vimium to get an easy keyboard-based navigation - which is also a bit more cumbersome now with the two-click-button style.

Is it possible to get a single button (== single click solution) to mark everything as read?

Thanks!

@t3p3tony Tony I figured it out last night by reading the Markdown docs! Good to know these little tricks. Is there a way to add these to the edit bar the way PHPBB allows new tools to be added?

Nice to see Discourse in action again. We use it as well and I really like the way it behaves and looks.
Great work keeping the posts!

When you click on the “mark as read” button there should already be a “mark all as read”

resam · 9 Apr 2018, 12:46

@msquared yes - the point I was trying to make is, that I don't want to click the “mark as read” button first, and then select "All":

On the old forum this was exactly as I want it:

1 click is better than 2 clicks - can't argue with that?

I am not sure but will add it to the wishlist!

Btw, moving an individual post into another thread worked!

Not Discourse though... NodeBB

AdiGital · 9 Apr 2018, 14:55

Just a little note - the forum link on the main page (duet3d.com) still leads to the old one.

T3P3Tony · 9 Apr 2018, 15:25

@adigital fixed, thanks

T3P3Tony · 9 Apr 2018, 15:29

And added a redirect for the bare /forum url.

If anyone notices links that point to the old forum that still end up there please let me know

Monster Delta · 10 Apr 2018, 09:27

Hi the new forum looks great but more often than not i cant get on here i get 305 error system overloaded alot

T3P3Tony · 10 Apr 2018, 10:01

@monster-delta we had an issue yesterday with load. It should be resolved today, how are you finding it? If you leave a mobile client in the background for sometime it will disconnect but the reconnection should happen quickly when you bring the browser back to the foreground

Monster Delta · 10 Apr 2018, 10:29

It seems to be fine today but yesterday i could hardly get on

And having this button available on all views (defautlt, unread, latest..) would also be nice.

@T3P3Tony any chance to improve the email notifications? They completely mess up the markup. Not even quotes are displayed correctly - it's just the whole text in a single line... This makes it really difficult to follow and actually read, because "old quoted text" is indistinguishable from the actual new reply text.

T3P3Tony · 12 Apr 2018, 17:22

@resam I will have a look at it - I had not noticed really because i always go to the forum to read the thread.

MSquared · 14 Apr 2018, 04:35

@t3p3tony @dc42

Can you send me a screenshot from your phone for when you can’t see what you’re typing? I am working on some style changes for the mobile composer but it would be helpful to see what you’re experiencing.
