Should wrong planet update the forum template?

Post Reply New Topic

Its prehostoric.. I cant even find topics ive started from a few weeks ago.. Maybe i am too used to facebook but everything is so OLD! other than that i love this site!

what do you think?

I don't really have a problem with how it is at current, but there's always room for improvement.

I don't like the colors. It looks obsolete. But i don't like Facebook either.

What are you doing to find the topics? I've never had a problem finding my own posts.

This template is perfect.

I'd like to see a user control panal with a spot for posts you subscribe to. I'd also like to see different skins.

I am a koala. Your argument is invalid.

I almost never have trouble finding topics, especially if I have posted in them. The only exceptions being when the mods delete a thread or my posts within that thread. I just scroll through my recent posts or use the search function.

WP is just fine the way it is.

I would like to see a good search function.

You can have Google search this site with all of the operators normally available to it by using a slightly modified form of searching, in which a specific site is named instead of leaving Google to search everywhere.
For example, tell it to search for occurrences of "pick up a stick" on WP with:
"pick up a stick" site:wrongplanet.net

See: http://www.googleguide.com/advanced_operators.html
Or "fill in the blanks" here: http://www.google.co.uk/advanced_search

(note that this would not search the Members Only forum)

id like to know what decade this template was made in.. also I cant find threads i started from as recently as a few weeks ago. I dont check this site every day.. am i supposed to trawl backwards through 100s of threads? Update this site FFS

You don't have to search through hundreds of posts to find threads you've started or posted in, just your own posts. Here's how:

1. Click on your username.

2. Click "find all posts by Projectile".

3. Scroll down until you find the "Next" button near the bottom right-hand corner of the page.

4. Use it to move through your posts until you find the one you want.

It could do with a bit of a change, but this site has been here since 2004 and probably been the same since then. There are members here who have been here a long time that re used to the site being this way, so they may not like any changes made to it.

If it was not for this, I would have agreed and suggested that it becomes one of those forum sites where you can change your name (If you get tired of your current one, especially if it is a username-like name).

Probably update the themes a little bit. It's too bright for my liking.

Other than that, this site is good.

It'd be nice to give people to choose which theme they want, personally.
