Good Morning!
I've been doing a little work behind the scenes this morning. Here's what's new:
Thread Tags: This has been installed for a few days. When you create a thread, tag what it's about. Tags are just keywords. Think what would you type in the search engine to find your thread. This is great for SEO and is needed.
DJ News Feeds: Click the DJ News link on the navbar, there you can view a brief description of DJ news articles along with links to the full articles. Right now Google is our only source. Over time, I'll be adding more and may expand the topics. Suggestions are welcome.
Top 5 Statistics: You can now view the top 5 thanked people, referrers, newest members and viewed threads on the forum homepage below the shoutbox.
Private Profiles: You can now choose to have your profile viewable to anyone, members only, or friends only. Friends are defined by your buddy list. To set privacy, edit your profile.
Avatars in PM list: When you view your PM box you now see the persons avatar instead of a stupid icon. This isn't of much value just makes things look nicer.
I also reinstalled a SEO hack, which will give us better search engine rankings. I know of one bug: View New Posts on showthread doesn't work correctly on all threads. I'm waiting for a fix from the developer as soon as it's patched I'll fix it.
I also moved around the Google Ads. They looked ugly on the top of every page. I'll be placing some back on the homepage in the next few days once I figure out how to make it look nice.
Other than that, I've tested functionality as much as possible. As with any modification errors can pop up in different browsers, operating systems, etc. If you find any errors, please report them here.
This is just the latest round of new features there are more coming soon. :tank:
Keeping you in the loop,
Dan :walkman:
