Michael Delamar Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 instead of symbols can they be F numbers? F1, F2, F3 etc. so you have to check what each one is and make it that more nerdier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcm@gwr Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Top right of every page, just to the left of your username, is your notifications tab, which will probably have defaulted to 'on' for likes etc. (mine had). There you should be able to see which posts have attracted ratings by clicking on the bit that says '(user) rated your post (icon) (rating)' Click on the 'your post' section of the notification and it will take you to the post. If their are no notifications showing then you can switch notifications on in your profile and you will be able to track future ratings. Andi Ok, thanks Andi, that is better than I thought. But, firstly, it doesn't tell you, it just transfers you to the post. So, there is still a fair bit of faffing back and forth, to find out who, what and which it relates to. Secondly, the post in question, shows 4 x 'agree', but the notifications show 6 x 'agree' and 1 'disagree'. 1 poster did one of each, so they cancel each other out! Maybe we should expect some teething troubles, maybe the small pleasure of seeing a 'like' awarded is just not the same anymore, or maybe I am a GOM.

ZiderHead Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 The likes were fine, this panoply of icons is ridiculous. It makes it so much harder to read the content. Its the user interface equivalent of those streets with a different road sign and marking every 10 yards. Please tell me theres a way turn it all off?

RMweb Gold JCL Posted May 15, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 15, 2013 A few posts back it says you can change the theme to "IPBoard 3.4 Default" to remove the buttons. You'll see "Change Theme" in the footer on the left. Hope that helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have preferred to retain that and get rid of the others. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andi Of course, this only works if you have notifications for ratings set on, which I don't, so I can't see which of my posts have been rated.

ozzyo Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Hello Andy, when you click the blue "list" it just gives the name of the person that has clicked the like etc. icons, would it be possible to put the avatar of the member up as well. like it used to have on the old like list. As with all new things it will have to have tinker time. OzzyO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium brushman47544 Posted May 15, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 15, 2013 What I presume is an unexpected consequence of the new ratings (which I like) is that when I scroll down the page using the wheel on my mouse, the page frequently scrambles with posts vanishing and the rating lines of several posts remaining above and below each other. Scrolling back up resets but I never know which post will be the first to reappear clearly. To stop it happening, I now have to keep clicking on the scroll bar on the right hand edge of the screen to move up and down the page. Ho hum... Edit for literacy.

Horfield Mob Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 The change takes a bit of getting used to but I like it. I got a "thanks" that meant I had not wasted my time posting.
