Change to Design of OffshoreCorpTalk Today -> Count Down 3,2,1.....

[VESTANON]

@James Spader and team:::

Whooa Much Whaoo....The new look forum, color scheme, UI seems like a blast into a futuristic Cyberpunk Metaverse..

Quickly switched on the dark theme, my favourite, would spend quite sometime figuring it all out...Something about the color scheme and layout just got me in a zone.....
sheeessshhh..

Impressive would be an understatement right about now...

A superb upgrade nonetheless..

All Aboard the Oceeteeee..

P.S Switched to my dark theme which is available actually.

Where is the option?

I suggest to change the motto "Every man has a property in his own person" with "Man is born free but everywhere is in chains"

Where is the option?

Under Settings -> Preferences or below link

You mean the sidebar "Latest Threads" or What's new

?

I can't find the "what's new" anywhere

 

[Martin Everson]

I can't find the "what's new" anywhere

Community -> New Posts -> Whats New

What's new is still the same as the old one.
click on the "latest threads" on the side bar on the right and it will automatically redirect you to "what's new"

side bar on the right

I’m using an iPad and I don’t see any sidebar.
Also I don’t like the new avatar shape, it’s too small

Community -> New Posts -> Whats New

Can you make it easier to reach like it was before? Not good to go through 3 levels menu to see new posts.

 

[Martin Everson]

I’m using an iPad and I don’t see any sidebar.

Click on three dots to right of search (magnifying glass icon) to toggle on the sidebar if on ipad.

Wow in general it looks much better awasome
Only my 2 suggestions
1. Notifications icon is not working as someone mentioned
2. Maybe you can make thread titles longer on the main page like it was before? Now it's hard to understand what is the thread about since its so short. Thanks

Nothing wrong about the layout, quicker, it's better for sure...
but hey those are some really bold color combinations for sure...
Maybe I'll need some time to adapt.

 

[CyprusLawyer101]

Too much light ..
Also agree too , there is no easy access to recent posts..

1. Notifications icon is not working as someone mentioned

On what sort of notifications? - please elaborate, can't reproduce the error ?

Looks good, but I can't find Invoice section that was available previously.

UPD search bar is not opening when I click on it. (Safari)

Not exactly a well-thought design when the bright colours of username and links prevent readability of the very same.

Great job with the design! However, search bar is not working in Edge and Chrome on Windows (I click the magnifier and nothing happens).

Is that on the light or dark version ?

Can you make a screenshot and post here maybe?

Light version. See below screenshots.
Moreover, the blue bar is highly disturbing, moves around and cuts into the visibility of the screen: A redundant "enhancement" which should be removed completely.

Just a few more pointers:

1.All member signatures not displaying.

2.conversation mail inbox indicates full, despite deleting older mails, and prevents new conversation coming in.

3.the word (mentor group gold) as indicated on member profiles could be highlighted in gold fonts and (silver membership) in silver fonts, as the Icons/Badges previously used, do not appear currently.

There is no dark version with the new design! The lack of this, which was actually the standard version of OCT makes this site even less readable.
Honestly, it seems the developer has tested this site only on a desktop. He never took into account that in today's world users are more likely to post by using a mobile phone.
Btw., this site has become largely unusable in the mobile version of Mozilla (Firefox): Try to edit a post using Mozilla mobile version and the entire post always moves around due to the blue "Home" bar.

I am gone for now. Will wait until these technical design flaws have been fixed before posting again.
