one but crucial thing I miss already!
LL old, home page, actually all pages, top right are the Community Rules.
but LL new this is no longer the case, therefor is now the word * Club *.
Actually, the rules should be emphasized for everyone, especially for new Members! ;)

That's exactly what my Prince would say and wish: emphasizing the Forum rules. Unfortunately he's is working to tell it too, therefore you have mine and his support on this :)

In the event it has not been reported

 

Opera Browser is not able to change pages in posts. So you get stuck on whatever page loaded when you went to it from the forum menu. 

 

(if this has been report, sorry for the double post, but I can't change pages)

 

FF has currently the same issue ...

I havn't seen this on dev.ll.com in tha last days. Only now. Strange :/

 

EDIT:

Plus the "Submit Reply" button has a similar problem ... It submits appearingly, but I see that only if I reload the page manually .... Double-strange :/ :/ :huh:

I was shifted to the new log in this morning. Lost all my previous history, my latest question had vanished, and the "download this file" on pages has no link.

 

I'm using MS Edge.  

 

I'm assuming this will settle down, so good luck with the changeover.

Heyho,

I have a small question: how can I create an activity stream that shows me any file update since a certain period of time?

I attached a picture of settings I've tried, but there it also has shown me reviews a file ratings :/

then I would have to say goodbye to this website, I play for 3 years nothing more that is listed here on LL.
some would be glad if I disappear, but millions would miss me. 

I have no idea what you are talking about.

 

Maybe I am being unclear in my request.

 

I only come here for Skyrim mods.  I'm interested in FO4 as well, so I'd like to see new files for that, too.

 

When the sidebar is filled with files for Sims, Starbound, etc, that is not helpful to me since I don't play those games.

 

Sometimes people put up multiple mods in a day for a game I don't play, and it can drown out the information I actually want.

 

I'm seeking the ability to filter the file sidebar to only show certain games.  Not asking for the site to drop other game support or anything like that.

 

I cannot see how that would effect you at all, or harm your visibility or what that has to do with you being here for 3 years.

 

This is a common function in some other sites, just wondering if it would be possible here is all.

 

If not, no problem.

 

With respect, I don't think we are communicating well.  Hoping this clears it up.

If you use anonymous browsing, then no. No way.

Because your "no" answer will not be recorded.

Infinite Scrolling.....well not infinite but the scroll bar is really long and no content is there after 1/4th of the bar.

You can do it by creating your own activity stream. Do it like the screenshot:

 

Of course, you can change the categories of files you are interested into.

It seems to be caused by the "users browsing this topic" section at the bottom of threads for some reason. I've disabled it for now, will look into fixing it when I get a chance.

Clubs are experiencing endless reloading.  The main page listing all the clubs is not affected.

 

Updated all of the download pages for my files (edit >save) so that they use the new template and now it's spamming the Files section in the main LL page.  It's as if I uploaded all those files for the first time.  Nevermind, looks like it fixed itself.

It is something should not be visible to normal users.

It is used to approve new users and to handle the delete requests.

 

@Ashal I think you can fix that.

The "new files" is now "updated files" to give visibility also to updated mods.

The first days, while updating the template, pretty much all files will go there. But the situation should stabilize in a few days.

Probably Ashal already fixed it.

The new site looks great. Thanks to you folks for a job well done. I do have a couple of requests. I'd like a download indicator next to an uploaded file so that folks can see at a glance it's popularity. Having it only viewable by me in a drop down menu doesn't inform others of its value. Also, I'd like posted pictures to be clickable thumb nails so that I can post larger pictures rather than having to resize them to fit the page and lose many of it's details. The smaller clickable thumbs allows more photos to be added across the page rather than down as it now. Hidden content (spoilers) are good for post discussions of a file or post when quoting but new posted files need visual appeal at first glance.

I switched the sidebar widget to new files instead. But I'm going to change the download categories to sort by updated.

Two freshly discovered problems.

1. Whenever I log in get this picture instead of standard one.

2. After logging in I'm "randomly" threw on different threads instead on the main forum page.

For some reason I can't attach the gif file from  this archive in a post while other such files has been attached well. What's wrong with it?

Passionate Reverse Riding.zip

It's a 32mb gif for starters...

Thanks so much for that, CPU.  Much appreciated.  I had no idea that was a thing.

but it up to 100 Mb possible as I see:

 

Drag files here to attach, or choose files... 
Max total size 100MB

 

Large gifs is something we've been needing to crack down on for a while now. Every time somebody views a thread with a 32mb animated gif in it, that 32mb gif is downloaded, eating up bandwidth and slowing the page load down for something the viewer might not even have wanted to see.

 

As for why it's not working now, I'm not sure.

I can't make it smaller, it's just a long animation. but it's up to 100 Mb possible as I see:

As a small recommendation, you can convert the gif to a webm file, and post just the link to the hosting site (https://webmshare.com/ or https://mixtape.moe/) maybe behind a static image.

May not be a big thing, but is there any way to do indents in blog entries? I know there are bullet-ed or numbered lists, but that is not exactly what I'm looking for.
