Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted July 17, 201113 yr It looks like someone threw all items at random. We have 4 bars now (indicated above 1-4) Each bar has a different color. Why two searches? On a top of it they look totally different. Why the 1st search has a search button with "search logo" and the other has a search button with word "Search"? What was the reason to create bar #4 just for 3 links? #4 is a bar, not a part of categories, so why it's not same width as a header instead of being lined up with categories? Why it doesn't have a header like color instead of categories color?
July 17, 201113 yr #4 is an on-site customization to make it easier for people to find [and search] the IPS client area, resources and documentation. It is not a part of IP.Board itself.
July 17, 201113 yr I understand that, but I still think it should be lined up with a header. I don't understand how you think it'd look better in any other way? it's aligned with all of the other content inside the forum? If it wasn't it would be the only bit of content that isn't aligned and would stick out and look ridiculous.
July 17, 201113 yr if i go to IPB 3.2 i must pay $$ someone to make me 3.1.x look I have no other solution. This is the first version of IPB - I'll wait first skins - and then update Skinners will rub their hands with money
July 18, 201113 yr I agree that it looks messy, but it's useful on this site and won't be included in the default install so I'm not going to complain.
July 18, 201113 yr I think it looks okay - my only thought is that the two search boxes should not be beneath each other, as I can see some people using the wrong one - can they be combined even?
July 18, 201113 yr I guess 2nd search is option, I like top search. + after checking out another post about new skin editing feature of IPB 3.2 , I think it will be intuitive to create new skin in 3.2.
July 18, 201113 yr If it's just for these support forums, then it's fine, but if it was for the final 3.2 release, then yea, it would look a bit weird.
July 18, 201113 yr It's just a hook for our site to allow you easy access to the documentation. This isn't something that will affect any of our customers' sites.
