zoomer Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 That's good. (The unread icons got lost again since yesterday anyway) But the old forum worked for me perfectly for about 6 weeks now, strange. And somedays ago, when the posting lag came back I found that safari was blocked for any site to open site until the Forum reloaded. So maybe it is just a Safari issue (?) For the new forum system, it would be nice if there would be only one notification for new answers, until we read the thread. Quote Link to comment

zoomer Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 This might be a working solution but as the current forum looks a bit old fashioned anyway I would not spend too much energy on this. Looking forward to a new forum system. Quote Link to comment
C. Andrew Dunning Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Any more word on the Tech Board getting fixed? Issues that seemed to have been fixed have returned full-force: no notices for watched sections or watched threads and long pauses after clicking "Submit." Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted December 19, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted December 19, 2014 We have not been able to lock it down to a specific cause. The discussions have moved more towards a replacement, but no official word yet. Pushing for a superior forum/kbase solution. Quote Link to comment

The discussions have moved more towards a replacement, but no official word yet. Pushing for a superior forum/kbase solution. One thing I woukd like to see in any new forum software is the ability to be logged in on more than one device. Now when I go to answer a post I have to log in on my phone or iPad and that logs me out from my Mac. I do have saved passwords, so it is pretty easy, but you end up two screens past the post you were trying to comment on. It might also be acceptable if after the login it returned you to the page you pushed the login button on in a logged in state. I don't think I am explaining this really well. If it doesn't make sense let me know and I will try again. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted March 31, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted March 31, 2015 Thats relatively standard on all modern forum solutions, if nothing else it includes an option for an account to be logged in from more than one IP/device at a time. So far on all the replacement software research I've done, thats a standard option, with a secondary benefit of designed-for-mobile UI options that make using the forums on a mobile device much easier. Most likely it will be included in any option we go with, but I'll make sure its kept in mind though during the upgrade talks. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted June 15, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 15, 2015 Working on a major fix now. I can't promise dates yet, (because if I do something in the server room will explode or become sentient, you know how it is...) but something good is in the works. Quote Link to comment
