Welcome to the all-new WDWMAGIC

[prberk]

Great job on the site redesign, @wdwmagic !

You said "we" on the page announcing it, Steve; so kudos to you and your team for a nice, sleek design. Like anything, it will take a little getting used to; but it looks very nice.

I am sure the feature of not having to determine first whether you want the mobile or desktop design will be helpful for some, as will the "like" feature on restaurant menu items.

I have to say I recognize that time and detail you put into this site.

Thanks again!

Paul

Looks good so far and does seem to be loading better. I'll give it a better test drive later.

You are doing another IOS app, what about android?

I love the new look! It's clean and feels more streamlined. I wish the wdwmagic logo on the top left is a bit more prominent though, unless you're planning a new one? Also, the font in the forums is a bit tough for me to read. Is there a way to bold it more?

No native Android app is planned. But we have extensively tested the website offerings on all flavors of Android, so you should be getting a good WDWMAGIC experience through your web browser.

Can we change the background colors at all? The white is very bright and hard on the eyes.

Thanks! Glad you like it.

The logo is much smaller than before, because we are trying to make the content be the main focus, rather than our branding. I think you will get used to the font, I've been using the new layout for the past 3 months, and at first it was a bit of a shock to the system, but you get used to it - you'll have to trust me on that one.

Typo, address should be http://www.wdwmagic.com/photos.htm

One other thing that's just a tad annoying is that when I hold my iPhone 5S vertically, there's no Alert button. I have to take the long way around by clicking my username, clicking alert (taking me the alerts page not a drop down box) and clicking on my newest alert. Is this just me? It's probably me being lazy.

That should be resolved now for 320px devices such as iPhone 4 and 5. Can you confirm it is working for you now (might need a refresh or two)? Thanks.

Looks fantastic! Thanks for the hard work.

It now works, thanks Steve!

Looks more than great Steve!! One minor issue here, is it correct that the 'timer' in the signature is working properly?

 

[devoy1701]

Oh Steve you're killing me!

You know you've been part of an internet family for a long time when you've lived through 3 site migrations!

Thanks for all your hard work!

That should be working now. Good spot

The site works really well on Windows Phone/Mobile btw. Not so much on IE11 for the desktop. The home icon is invisible and the font is all stuck in Times New Roman. Luckily I have Chrome installed but I know some office workers are stuck with whatever browser the IT guys see fit.

Great update, Steve! Looks awesome on Firefox and Windoze.

Easy way to spot unread threads is to just look for the blue dot - no need to try and interpret the font weight.

I know it's because I'm running Noscript on my browser, but other than when I completely disable the add-on, I can't seem to make the blue dots appear. I just get an empty rectangle letting me know something is supposed to be there.

Any idea what part of your page scripts I need to allow to make it work?

This, feel like I need sunglasses. I'm also finding the font on certain sections extremely compressed. The list of who likes what is painful to read. I'm on Firefox on Windows 7 by the way.

IE11 was one of our test platforms, and we have confirmed normal operation on both the main site and the forum.

Are you running any form of ad block or something blocking access to external fonts?

Yes it is a compressed font in some areas. We used that to get the most amount of information into some tight spaces. At first it does seem jarring, but I found it to be quick to get used to.
