Thanks DanaJ, this is super helpful. David is fixing the bug right now!DanaJ wrote:Terms of service and Legal Disclaimer link back to Home when you're in the Forums section.

Man I'm bad at IT terms, I hope you guys understand what I'm saying. I guess this is why I upload pictures with the stuff!
BTW, using Firefox.
Cheers.

Hey I was just browsing around and noticed you've posted a video in the "Getting started" section. Honestly, that's a pretty sweet idea, and I really liked the way you presented the forums. However, I have two observations:
- Scholarship tab is no longer there (for a good reason - since it's like 6 months away), but you still emphasize it quite a bit ($60 000?! :gasp:)
- I think you might have shot the thing a bit too far away from the screen. Especially when you show off registering, it's really, really small. I'm not sure if this will annoy anyone except me, but hey, I guess I'm a lot about nitpicking.
Here's a Print Screen.
P.S. Hey you don't have an accent at all! I thought you were of Asian descent...

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, the getting started video has already become out of date! We'll need to re-shoot it soon once we have a couple more features settled.
And I'm glad you didn't pick up an accent--especially since I was born and raised in the United States!

If you didn't mention in your video, I'd have thought it's dubbed by the professional radio guy... or is it? :!:

not sure whether it's anything to do with new site updates, as it's related to forums.
The website slot in 'edit your profile' page is disappeared!
Still some members have their website on the profile page. & some dont (i am in latter category)

Since I've site admins power/controls I could fix it & added my website in profile but I knew its a temporary solution.
The website info disappears after few days. Strangely, it doesn't happen with 'all members'.
PS: Today I've again put my website; lets see how long it stays.

Hello everybody,
There are a few bugs (not sure if you are aware of them) on the new site and i thought i'll address them.
1. Please see the screenshot (btg.jpg): The forum tab on the top navigation bar shows the list of threads and the section: Business school is not updated with the new structure. Hence when one selects the "old" link "The Business School Application" it takes the visitor to a page which says the link is wrong or does not exist (not sure about the exact wording)
2. Please refer screenshot (btg1.jpg) for this bug. The right sidebar is half hidden by the main content section. This results from the page not resizing when one clicks on a thread.
3. Please refer to the screenshot (btg2.jpg): Typo in the "Getting started with BTG" section.
