.Cameron Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I noticed that the My Friends thing is a pop-up window. Why isn't a My Assistant-Like Interface (AJAX Window) being used instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TestingSomething Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I agree. I don't like it as the popup window. It should have been a tab in my assistant itself, and when you click the link in the member bar, it brings it up, already on the proper tab.

sully Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I like the way My-Assistant poped up indeed. Twould be a nice replacement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Either that, or integrated in with the 'Friends' tab on the profile. It confuses me that it is isn't in there. :sEdit: Afterall, you manage comments under the "Comments" tab of your profile. Why not handle friends in the same way?

Logan Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Do agree :)It shouldn't constitute a whole other popup... a section in my assistant would do fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat Barrie Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Just found a bug on the Friend Added Notification email, it shows "Peter" as Pⅇter :huh:That's not a bug. He has a special character in his name, I actually see the square in his member display name by his posts also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Matt Posted September 20, 2006 Management Share Posted September 20, 2006 The reason it's a pop-up window is so you can leave it open while you browse the board and it'll auto-refresh every minute or so to update the list (especially handy if you've set it to show only those online).Making it a DHTML window will lose that functionality.Edit: Afterall, you manage comments under the "Comments" tab of your profile. Why not handle friends in the same way?Friends pending approval appear in the Friends tab with a different background color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munja Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Nice, can we change the update time / turn it off. If we so please.Also, who wants to be my friend :PEdit: Well it seems i can be my friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Matt Posted September 20, 2006 Management Share Posted September 20, 2006 I do :PAlso, the friends list is opened by clicking on "Add Friend" and "Remove Friend" which wouldn't really be as possible with a DHTML floating layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.U. Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Some people block pop-ups. I had that issue back in 2.0 days when many of my users reported to me that My Assistant wasn't working because they had pop-up blockers that block it. I most welcomed the new DHTML version as it gets around such pop-up blocker settings. Personally the friends list is a "myspace feature" and really useless for me on my board, I hope there is a way to just disable the whole thing. If not it will just be one more reason against me wanting to upgrade my main site to 2.2 when that time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
