Suggestion Menu Bar fixes for new theme

Dragoncoals · 08-23-2008

Firstly, the blogs button on the lower bar should be removed, as it is in the top one already. The IRC Chat link should go in the top bar, because it's a major page.

Also, I think there should be a 'forums' button on the top bar, so when we are viewing User CP or a profile, we dont have to click 'Home > Forums'

There also needs to be a link added for the Rules. Before the change it was up there, but now it is gone. If you take DQ's suggestion, you can replace the Blog link with Rules instead of removing it entirely.

I noticed this because I was gonna check the rules real quick to see if my new signature was too big. Now I don't know exactly where to find this out at and I don't really want to spend a whole lot of time finding it. So, is my signature too big?

hey, the forums button just got transferred up there.....i think that a link to user cp should go there too, as i check it every 5 minutes!

There is a rules, its the top nav bar. When you click on the big "ForgeHub" picture at the top, it goes directly to the forums, eliminating the need for a forum link. But there are two nav bars, guys, it has everything you guys mentioned.

The tweaks are being made to the x version of the skin first and there are forum members working on new banners etc.

I know that, but he's so inactive, yet a vary important part of FH.

To your eyes maybe.
I'm sure he does a lot of behind the scenes work on the site and talking with the staff, which leaves little time for '1000 post party countdown' and 'Rate the user above you' nonsense threads...

Anyway, back on topic, kinda. Do you know about the blog error Lionheart? A little more than half the time I can't reach the blog section. It gives me a 404 error. So if you didn't know before, you do now. :D

Well yeah the blogs thing and rules thing were probably mistakes, but i don't think the IRC thing is that major. Most people who use IRC extensively dont use the IRC page, they use chatzilla or w/e.

I also think that Foundry Designer should be replaced with User CP. I use CP a lot, about once every few minutes when I'm on, and rarely use the Designer, maybe a few times a month.
