Forum Updates
This is a small, long-term, no big deal type suggestion, but I noticed the discussion about the kudos feature and it being too long before, and the latest change is good. But, unless I'm missing it, I can't see a way to see all those who have liked my post. On TVF for instance, the hover tool tip showed the full list. If you could come up with some way to achieve this it would be wonderful! When your posts are as fabulous as mine, it's important to bathe in the full glory of your success.*

*This is a joke for those who are unsure.

This is something I'm already looking into as part of Forum 3.0, which is in the VERY EARLY stages of development.

If you go back through your notifications you can see who gave you the kudos and when, though of course on the forum you only see Fred, Velma and two others gave you kudos. So you can (in theory) bask in goodness knowing who gave you it, but of course if you are fabulous/jammy/comply with the algorithm/"own" somebody else (whatever that means), your basking can extend beyond the last two people who gave you the kudos.

The criteria for this badge is you must have joined the site within the first 6 months of the forum's launch, and have made at least 15 posts.

Verified users that meet this criteria are in this group, but will keep their blue verified status.

NOTE - the cut-off point to qualify to be a founder member will be 5.30am on the 29th September. Also, some members have slipped through the net and not been verified. If this is you, don't panic, I'll be working to get your badge added as soon as possible.

Only just noticed this, I still have a grey username, have I just slipped through the net?
Is anybody else getting a 403 Forbidden error every now and again?

Those who haven't got a badge yet, and should have one, will do so by the 29th. The bronze names are a bit too distracting, so I've reverted them to default colours.

Okay, I just noticed the font here has changed.
It actually makes the place look much nicer and professional.
Yeah, the old font was a generic one you'd find on any computer as standard, so this new one feels more modern.
While I like the new font, I’m occasionally finding it difficult to read text in some places. Also, in some locations, there is some kerning occuring, ie where f and l are close together.

PS: typing messages on ipad is impossible, the keyboard keeps closing itself completely randomly and for no reason at all. Only happens here so can only imagine its an issue with the text editor on the site.
flip... Yeah, I see what you mean. It's not actually a kerning issue at all. Compare fl to fi. See how the middle line on the f extends to meet the l, but not the i? It's actually converting f l to the fl ligature.

I wonder... looking here, might this line of code need adding in fonts.css?

Code:
body  {
  font-feature-settings: "liga" 0;
}
I shall have a look when I have a free moment.

Sorry, not a fan of the font. Very light and difficult to read in comparison to the previous one.

EDIT - it's more legible in dark mode compared to light mode.
I've improved the legibility a little bit. The new font is to ensure a little bit of consistency across all the TV Live sites.

The font is Manrope for anyone interested...

Don't tell people that - we'll have five 'TV Live Forum - 2021 Rebrand' mocks in The Gallery by the end of the week. Wink

I've had people send me their own takes on the logo already... :lol:

There are NO plans to change the logo, or any part of the TV Live branding in the forseeable future.
