MGBrose Posted July 4, 2009 Posted July 4, 2009 Have you guys noticed that when your staff and about to reply to a post you notice this . Don't know if it is just me, but it just seems too cluttered with the topic and post moderation in addition to the standard stuff that members see, it gets cluttered up in that corner. I don't really have a suggestion on how to have it less cluttered but someone else might feel the same way as I do and might have a better idea on how to solve this cluttered area.
TrixieTang Posted July 4, 2009 Posted July 4, 2009 I noticed this a long time ago, just never said anything about it. And I think everything down there is cluttered, not just that one corner, but that whole area down there. It's a cluttered mess, someone needs to force Rikki to make it less cluttered. :P

He attacked them and took ALL of the SubWay food and thus nothing gained. They learned that day to just let Rikki have his way.

On topic though, I noticed it today too and think it is a bit cluttered. :S

Mark Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 How do you propose it should look? Saying "it's cluttered" is all well and good, I agree, but I can't personally think how else it could be presented.
Lee Craven Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 I personally overlook it all, only staff see it, and as I say unless a post bothers me I don't really look at it!

Saying "it's cluttered" is all well and good, I agree, but I can't personally think how else it could be presented. Well personally, since I've been using VB for a while now, I can't help but compare. I don't want a flame marathon here but they might have it the way that could solve the issue (IMHO) Probably not the best way but its a solution. What you can do is actually put those drop downs on the topic title category bar, on the right hand side. Prime real estate in my opinion. But not of course how the drop downs looks like right just stuck up there. Plus you actually add the search as a drop down too, and move the forum jump down, probably below the active users to remove one more bar. Not only will this distribute the clutter evenly, the second part of my suggestion, will reduce clutter for the members also. I was wondering why was the forum jump was moved in the first place from 2.3.6? It was fine the way it was IMHO. Edit: Something like this
