Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
September 9, 20177 yr Management Personally, I'm not a fan of the very top bar being white. I think a dark bar would look better, such as (the bar there is #212932). However, my browser skin is also dark, so maybe it looks better with white above it. Nice!
September 9, 20177 yr I personally like the white. Seems more modern than the dark bar. That's likely just a purely taste thing though.
September 9, 20177 yr I like the new change maybe community menu should be in the different place, it took me a while to find it, but its okay now
September 9, 20177 yr Where's the marketplace/download tab gone? I don't see it anywhere on the menus.
September 9, 20177 yr Where's the marketplace/download tab gone? I don't see it anywhere on the menus. It's a bit hard to find: Home > Marketplace
September 9, 20177 yr I like the new look but i find navigation is dreadful now.I'm constantly being taken back to the homepage.At least add back in the the links to the user menu drop down so we can get to things easier.When i finally found marketplace i then couldn't get back to forums.It just doesn't flow for me.I understand that you want to stuff features down peoples throats when they come to the site to promote your product but for someone who uses the forums i find it difficult.I think this is due to the white top bar being so unnoticeable that I even forget it is there.
September 9, 20177 yr The color transition of the widgets looks wrong to me. IPS should either make the navigation bar "sticky" (movable), or whatever its called, with some box shadow at the bottom, or change its color. I prefer the first one, cause it will look more professional, instead of changing the color.
September 9, 20177 yr I think the front page looks great. I'm not a fan of all the white on the forums. Too bright and washed out with no contrast. I especially do not like the white bar on top. It blends with the Browser Chrome entirely too much. And for the love of all that is holy... CONTRAST. This is a thing. I mean, if you have nothing but a bunch of 16-25 year olds, fine. When you start getting older, contrast helps with the eyestrain. light gray text on white background is harder to read. Especially in small text sizes.
September 9, 20177 yr I also don't like the white color on userbar on top, make it something similar to navigation looks nice
September 9, 20177 yr Ok if this is an airing of grievances thread about the great new look, I have one: Barf. Oilers? Really? It's like you are trying to get us to dislike this.
September 10, 20177 yr Is possible ips offer this new look like a theme? I really like it, so nice if can make it a homepage...
September 10, 20177 yr Management Is possible ips offer this new look like a theme? I really like it, so nice if can make it a homepage... It's possible (and I'd very much like to) do and release theme modifications, but our own corporate theme is for our site only. We appreciate your interest though!
September 10, 20177 yr Community Expert The chages made on the theme should be applied in the default theme. I mean, buttons are blue; in default theme they're green, etc. I know we can change it but it feels better.

Yeah - selfish of me I know, but it feels like this was a great little set of tweaks and I want them.
September 10, 20177 yr I also don't like the white color on userbar on top, make it something similar to navigation looks nice I like it in the middle plus is stands out more
September 11, 20177 yr With the white header area, it does seem to hide in the background and it's harder to see.
September 11, 20177 yr Any plugin can provide all changes mentioned here? a plugin to build homepage, none need coding knowledge...like some webpage building software in the market
September 11, 20177 yr I think a fixed (after scrolling) header would be very useful - @ehren. usually incorporates these into his themes and they make navigation much faster.
September 13, 20177 yr I dont really like the new redesign, :l At first I thought my browser was bug lol
September 15, 20177 yr I have to agree that I also like the new fixed navigation menu. If someone on my forums posts a message, they don't have to scroll back to the top of the forum page. I've also found a fix for the navigation menu bar and I'm working on a similar menu that uses the same IPS wrapper but doesn't use the mouse-over effect, which has always bothered me. Once I have it finished, I'll post on the forums how to create it, in case others want to use it.
November 7, 20177 yr How can i make our navigation menu like the one used here? I much prefer the links to big fat tabs. I also like the nice dropdown submenus you have here.
