New Community coming tomorrow

[peblaco]

I (and I think many others) used this a lot due to the restrictions on the forum search. (Such as >3 characters required for the search term etc)

Yes can the 3 character limit be changed, it often caught out searches with 3 letters such as css and vat!

TBH I'm a little surprised at the choice of colour for both the community and the new website.

I always tell my clients, and forum users who request feedback on their site for that matter, that good contrast on a web page is important. That they have to consider that some people viewing a screen may be colour blind or have contrast issues, so I'm very interested to hear how/why Actinic decided on this palette?

Don't get me wrong, the layout of the site is far better than before, but IMO much of the site is very difficult to read.

[Rich Brady]

Also, while I'm at it LOL, why is the banner image promoting Actinic Business not a link to the "Buy Now" page?

[Mike Hughes]

OK. Someone has to ask the question.

What banner image?

I was just wondering, has anybody mentioned in the last few days that they don't like the pale lavender colours of the new website and forum?

If nobody has, I'd like to add that I find it all a bit wishy-washy!

Does the header have to be quite so deep? Everybody that comes here knows what its about, and that banner wastes a lot of space by 'KNOWLEDGE BASE' being on its own line.

+1 for me

[Rich Brady]

On the website, sorry., I should have made that clearerererer...

I'm guessing on the main actinic site not here.

Edit: Beat me to it Rich.

If you're not sure, then ask, surely it's a better idea than presuming?

Sigh - why say silly things Lee

The two Actinic logos that indicates 'Forum Contains No New Posts' or 'Forum Contains New Posts' could do with more contrast between the two as they are not easy to tell apart without looking carefully, although I don't tend to look at them myself as would usually use the 'New Posts' option instead.

Problem with new knowledgebase?

I'm getting a problem when I use the knowledge base.

When I click on an entry I get an error relating to :

http://%3cdomain%3e/acatalog/%3Cpagename%3E


Anyone else getting this?

[Golf Tee Warehouse]

At least the Google Search is back, Yippee.

Woohoo, just the colours, the width, the logo area and white space to sort out now . Only kidding, not that bad really, the white space will be fine once the site expands again .
