New look forum

#12

Hey @ndalby :wave:

Sure, probably, hopefully … but as said, the forum sytem is just bought (3rd party) and also hosted (3rd party). So if someone is fixing, changing, working on it, it is not anker.

But maybe anker got their “own personalized” version of 2.2.4 (see below) … don’t know.
I don’t think that Discourse has released “this” version of the forum to all their customers. Then hundreds or thousand of forums would look, feel and be like “this” now :open_mouth:

As they are working at it, we will need to be patient and wait and see what the next days will bring. I am kind of optimistic and hope they fix what is “suboptimal” :grin:

While the community is discourse based, discourse can be customized by coders and designers…these parts are likely being done by Anker’s technical/website team…

Oh ok … thanks for the info! :+1:
mhhh … so let’s see what they do.
But anyway … beta testing or checking the code/changing in a closed non public area before uing it on a “live-system” with trillions of customers and the public … would be … smart :wink:

Hi @yamyam,

Thank you for your honest feedback, we really want to build a community that could be recognized by the majority of users, especially those active users just like you!

We opened a new category called ideas & suggestions, you could create a thread to let us know your idea about the community upgrade suggestion. :blush:

Maybe we will adopt it in the next community update version.

:rofl: Me too … got flooded with them.
What you can do … uhm … let me think … :thinking:

All you can do is … try to enter some toilet paper
into your printer, print the badges on your favorite
super soft toilet paper and then …
… you know what to do with toilet paper, right? :wink:

Serious: You can do and buy nothing for it … just some little anker forum fame :crown:

Neither toilet paper nor a printer available here in my house! :wink:

I really like the Dismiss New button under the New Topics section. As someone who hates seeing unread badges on my devices it is nice to clear posts I’m not interested in.

#26

I am a proud badge carrying Member now.

Like the new community page.

look forward to when the testing club goes live too.

Well done Anker

Personally myself, I love the new look of the community and find it more faster and responsive than the original site.

The giant emojis definitely need to be toned down in size though, it looks like they have been on steroids! :joy:

It took 10 minutes to get the new look/feel, seems much more approachable now.

What emojis?

I think I really like the new look. I’m still getting use to the layout and feel, but I don’t think they changed too much rather than just making it cleaner and a little easier to navigate. Overall, I think I’m a fan, but I’m going to give it a few days of use before I make up my mind.
