Infinite scrolling does not unload posts after they leave the screen

Asonix 9 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 8 years ago 1

In order to improve efficiency, posts and images and stuff no longer visible (scrolled past) should be unloaded (just removed from the page probably) to preven the browser from freezing and crashing after trying to render too many elements.

Answer

At this point, previous posts are unloaded in order to prevent the crashing described in this idea. This definitely has helped with stability.

Encrypt support.furrynetwork.com

Due to the option of logging in via this unencrypted URL instead of beta.furrynetwork.com, it would be wise to extend that TLS 1.2 encryption to this subdomain.

Collapsible tag search pane

Songbird 9 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 8 years ago 1

When viewing galleries, I would be appreciate the option (arrow icon) to collapse the search pane on the right into a thin strip, using the same icon to revert it to its full size.


Presently, I can only see three rows and five columns of thumbnails on my regular-sized laptop monitor, the least amount of thumbnails at a glance between FN, Fur Affinity, e621, SoFurry, and Inkbunny. Refreshing thumbnails to fit the additional space when the tag search element is collapsed would make browsing artwork more comfortable for someone accustomed to the higher information density offered by competing image gallery websites.

Answer

The site has had a significant redesign since that time. While only a few rows can be seen, the thumbnails are now compact, and this makes it easier to view a large amount of thumbnails at a time.

Option to disable sticky navbar

Songbird 9 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 8 years ago 1

One of the biggest grievances I have with the UI of Furry Network is the sticky navbar. While a common tenet of modern web design, it limits screen real estate, and in my opinion, the resultant claustrophobia is worse than occasionally having to press the 'home' key to access that menu.


I understand that some people enjoy quick access, but as someone who's accustomed to websites where all content moves on a scroll event, having a UI element not budge is jarring and limiting. Please include an option to disable this behavior.

Answer

After a significant amount of redesign, we are now happy with the general layout. I imagine this could still be simplified further, but we are close to finalized. The navbar at the right side of the screen is now gone.

Retrieve deleted journal

Rafael Montero 9 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 8 years ago 1

I seem to have messed up and clicked on the "X" on my post/journal entry and now it is completely gone. It was really long and very personal and important to me so it will kind of break my heart if it's permanently lost.

Is there any way I can have the post restored from an earlier time? Even after I deleted it it seemed to flash on my dash for a second so it seems like maybe it's SOMEWHERE, just hidden? is there a toggle? A trash can somewhere?


Answer

We don't currently have the ability to automatically save drafts, so we highly recommend saving drafts periodically. As the site grows, this request could become more common, and we can look into including automatically saved drafts at that time.

What's New Posts Inline

Maara Rainshield 9 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 8 years ago 1

It would be great if you could open submissions and other kinds of content inline (using AJAX) when browsing them from your "What's New" wall. Having to navigate to a different page and then return is kinda cumbersome.

Answer

The site now has the submission pop up over the initial page, and a "Close" option opens up at the top-right. This makes navigation a little less cumbersome.

The site has had a lot of restructuring. At this point, it looks like it's working correctly.

Ability to turn off all notifications

Drygun 9 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 8 years ago 1

Currently at least one of the notification dongles needs to be selected at any given time. Fairly petty, but it just bugs me, makes it slightly annoying when trying to switch between a single one. Seems like an unneeded limitation anyway.

Answer

The site has gone under significant changes, and this no longer appears to be an issue bothering people. If notifications do still appear to be a bothersome issue, feel free to submit a new ticket, and we can look at solutions.

See Only One Type on What's New

Beast Shocked NSFW 9 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 8 years ago 1

Currently if users just want to see new submissions they have to uncheck everything else. There should be a way to just focus on one types of post easily and perhaps a way to delete all of one type of post as well.

Not a bug

No text displayed in the header.

Fafnir314 9 years ago updated by Rykomi (Support Admin) 9 years ago 2

I can see all the icons at the top of the page - the palette, the camera, the book, etc. - but the text which is supposed to be next to the icons ("artwork", "photos", etc.), to explain what each one means, is not displaying; and if I hover the cursor over an icon, no text appears. The "Furry Network beta" logo displays just fine, as does my username, though my (square) icon does not completely fill the (square) box just to the right of my name. I tried turning off AdBlock, but it makes no difference. I am using a MacBook Air, OS X 10.11.3, and Safari 9.0.3.
