Hunting Forum

HuntingClub.com will be down starting at approximately 7 p.m. on Monday, July 2, 2012. The website should be live by early in the day on Tuesday, July 3. The site will be getting a new look and feel that we hope enhances your experience. With this change, there will be a few bumps in the road that you might find before us. Please post any issues here (screen shots are helpful) and we will fix them as soon as possible. Thanks for bearing with us.

Here we go all will lose everything again .Be ready .I've it three times .

Great another upgrade to make things better. I've just recently got things fixed from the last upgrade. Thanks Josh.

The Internet team is doing everything possible to ensure a smooth transition.

I better not loose anything or I am going to make you fix it josh .

I just wanted to add to what Josh had to clarify the times a little better and add to what Josh had to say. We'll be bringing the site down between 7:00 and 8:00 central time (depending on how long the back ups take) and deploying a new home page and interior pages. There are literally thousands of interior pages so the potential is there that something will be missed. We'd really like your help in pointing out markup and functionality issues and reporting them here. We will have multiple resources monitoring this thread and dedicated to fixing anything that you turn up. At some point when we've gotten the big and medium chunks cleaned up we will migrate any outstanding issues to a change/enhancement log that we will be sharing with you.

For tonight, you'll know we'll all done if you can find this thread and you see me say: "Let the critique begin!" At that point I will log any "known issues" and an estimated eta for fixing.

Thanks and watch this space for details.

We're back.

For the most part we are looking pretty good but here are some known issues we'll be addressing tomorrow.
-My Account Page looks a little messy
-Inside Track Section of Footer isn't taking up the full area
-Right Menu in the Trophy Room looks meh
-Trophy Room pages need clean up
-Trophy Room Honor Roll isn't rendering

Let the Critique Begin....

Just my 2 cents, but I don't care for the black background and white foreground. too much contrast, hard on these old eyes.


Time stamp also appears to be off.  I posted @ 3:57am cst and this shows the post at 8:57am.


Still need to get rid of the Beta Test/Social markers from the Fourms page.  It's just wasted space.  At least create a header and place them all under a single header that can be minimized by the non-Social Networking users.

Yeah, there is a ton of forum crud. Should we start a thread of what forum stuff can go? What's the collective appetite for that do you think?

That's a pretty accurate image of us disgruntle members, LOL. Just horrible.

Get rid of all that junk .Like was said start its own heading .

I see what you're saying. Ok, that makes a lot of sense. I'll see what it will take to get that done.

i agree get rid of the beta test markers

How about reinstalling the old banner that gave us the "home, social sites, benefits, and contest, etc." areas that made it easier to access.

We've started moving all the social forums off to a section of their own at the bottom (and collapsed). There's a lot so they wont be all moved out til Friday or so. I like the idea of a better dashboard/menu/banner type system. Trophy really, really needs it but the whole club can benefit from one.

Have a super great 4th of July guys!!

Why do I have the trophy thing on my page but can't get into it .Waist of my time .And do something with this black .It is killing my tired old eyes .The green was ok .

Today, the drop downs are working from the banner. I don't know if that was changed or if it just didn't work the first time I attempted to use the function. Regardless, thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

No problem RT. Keep the bugs and suggestions coming.

Holly, the Trophy Room link shouldn't be visible to you so when folks get back from vacation I'll have that hidden from view. Also, we'll be working on a button that will allow you to toggle to a lighter background. I've heard that the contrast is too great from enough people to think it's worth the extra effort. I don't think we'll be going back to the green but we can make it more of a charcoal so everything transitions better. It's *possible* to make it so you can choose your own background but I'd rather fix other stuff first.

It's past Friday, and nothing has changed about all the social networking crud on the forums page. 
Perhaps I missed this new "section of their own at the bottom" but I haven't noiticed any new headers. 
Was it just wishfull thinking or was someone jumping the gun when they said "We've started moving all the social forums".


Time is still screwed up also, this was posted at 6:04am CST.

Lloyd, would it be possible to either decrease the signature line size, make it a different color, or even separate it by a line, so that it doesn't appear to be part of the post?
