Public Beta on dprevived.spirito.eu before we switch on next Monday.
You could test everything but changes and files will vanish on update.Some Info about changes:
- Quick menu
- Custom limit for number of post per page
- Emoji picker
- Changed colors in dark theme
- Added mark category read
- Automatic statics on homepage
- Jump down link in pagination
- Free space indicator for Uploads (test limit is 100MB/File 400M/User)
- View Serverspace in backoffice
- Switched javascript to event driven
- Moved themes config to own file
- Moved all extra css to one file
- Cleanup javascript
- Added version info
-
Just to check I'm understanding this properly: On Monday, the (test) limit will be up to 4 100MB photos (presuming there's no text)?
-
No, at the moment, on the test forum, you can play testing a 100mb file upload and a quota of 400Mb.
When the forum goes live there will be different limits (if we stick with what the admins discussed earlier) and you won't be disappointed.

Thanks for the reply Alan.
-
It seems that exif info is not displayed underneath previously uploaded photos. Is this just a feature of the public beta?

Yes, Martin tried to fix the decimal place bug and and got something wrong. He knows about it and it will get sorted.

I tried it and got back the same 4m error message.
No idea why or what I did wrong though!
-
It's possible Martin reset something on the test box. I haven't looked as I've been out all day.
I'll have a quick look now
[edit] - yes, it's been set back to 4096 for members. I think it's had a database refresh from the current live system. I don't want to change it in case Martin is doing something.

I've updated to 40Mb. Log off and log back on again and see what happens. [This is on the test forum - not this one, of course]

( tried it now - pasting the screenshot - I use PicPick ) -

- Are these statements on the front page still true? They dont seem to get updated.
-
When I select "Forums" at the top of a page and go to an option, I have to click on the arrow at the rh end of the tablet to select it. Is it possible to make the whole tablet live, to make selection easier?
-
Where does it explain what the limits are on user space/upload size, etc?
Thanks!

Grrr - it should have had a date by it. I'll fix all that.
As to the other stuff. I am going to write a 'how to' on the new Forum menu system. But basically, even though the cursor hasn't changed, you can click on a title and something will happen. I was delaying writing it because I want the cursor to change (but Martin needs to do that bit).
Limits are not explained anywhere apart from the 'Drum Roll' thread that I started.

This is as of the last time you accessed that page. So, it is up to date.
I've removed the '99 new members ...' as that is not rlevant any more.

I had to click 3 times to get this list of part of the forums.
At the old Dpreview I only hovered "Forums" and did get all subforums.
-
Yes, I totally agree. Making users click every time they want to see a sub-menu is not very user friendly.
The :onhover selector should be used in the CSS for the submenus instead of giving them an onclick attribute or eventListener reacting to clicks.
The way DPReview handled their menus was much more user friendly.
