Is this confirmed with you, Nao?

I will keep you posted!  Thank you for the effort in fixing this!

Archived fixes / A rather silly menu bug
« on May 19th, 2014, 05:45 PM »
Steps to reproduce:

1. Click on any link from a menu drop-down in the header (I choose 'summary' from 'Profile')
2. On the next page hit the back button on your browser.
3. Hover your mouse over the same menu in the header that contains the link you clicked prior.

The menu doesn't "drop down".

I am using Firefox 29.0.1 on Windows 8.1

('Silly' because I am guessing it's something that isn't a big deal, but eh, thought I should mention it anyway.)

Just FYI, this bug has not been fixed.  I just saw the same error just now, here.

Congrats!  Nothing witty seems to come to mind, so I will leave it at that and wish you the best.

All settings would be, if possible, in as few pages as possible.
This what stood out at me the most, and I agree to this. 

But I think as of right now just deal with what's on your plate.  The admin center is important, yes.  But I think it can wait.  (my opinion, but one in many)

I say go for it, if you think it would work in the long run.

That sounds like one big, stinky kettle of fish. :(  There were only two times I ever had to "hard force" settings onto all members; one, change avatar size and two, changing a default theme to something else and wanted everyone using it.  I don't know if those are good examples in relation to your current conundrum or not.

Features / Re: Relative dates
« on November 12th, 2013, 01:27 PM »
True, but then if you're going to be thorough with it then you'd have to do something like "5 days ago"...at least go up to months with relativeness?  So perhaps you can do "2 weeks ago" instead of "14 days ago"...as long as you consolidate with specific measurements of time.

Should I do it like them, and drop the idea of extending relative dates to months or even years..?
Short answer: Yes.

Slightly longer answer: Relative dates start to get a little confusing (at least for me) when it extends beyond the here and now of Today and Yesterday.

No worries, Nao.  I happen to like reading online novellas in forum replies. :P

All I can do is pretty much keep an open ear to what you have shared with us (as just above).  It's very interesting (dare say it, juicy :D) to hear what has been going on behind closed doors. 

Speaking of closed doors, I want to praise you again for the privacy features.  I am again laughing at what Arantor mentioned:

"SMF will never (stoop so low as to...) implement privacy features, because it's not what a forum is for."
I've had to use cake[1] tiers after tiers of membergroups to create gates for potential members to pass through so they can become official members for my (crumbling) SMF install.  With this new feature on Wedge where one can choose the privacy of every single thread they make is a time saver and is more efficient.  It puts privacy back into the control of the members on what they want to share with the world or with their own circle of friends or the forum at large. 

Even if it was SMF's intention to not input privacy features, someone out there (Me) is going to use the existing features to implement an ivory tower.

Well, if I ever was going to have people pay for Wedge, it would be for an inexpensive price, less than $50. Probably around $30.
30 dollars, 50 dollars, 100 dollars[2] I would gladly pay it, and I would hope you get some sort of monetary benefit from your hard work.

Also, finding out that Arantor wanted to keep the project under wraps really upsets me.  I am so happy that you're on the road to release.  Even that you're sharing it with the world makes me very grateful.

And because I'm a fair person, I just found a good example of a topic where I understand Pete's crude behavior:
Yeah, can I be rude for one second?  I hope that person steps on a lego while barefoot. :D
 1. Mmmn, delicious cake...
 2. One-time fee, right? :eheh:

Thanks for the explanation!  I stick with my original conclusion then!  I personally like the Home template better instead of Welcome. :)

I guess I can air what I think?

Arantor is a great programmer, though I find him to really hypocritical as a person with the recent events.  I had to laugh when remembering this thread after hearing the news that he came back to SMF.  Though, whatever, anything to make him happy?  I have to be honest, I felt like I was walking on eggshells when he was around here.  I felt as if I asked a question or offered an idea that he would pound me into the ground, mostly due to the fact that I am nowhere near his repertoire of programming.  I learn along the way to benefit myself and my sites; confronting problems takes me to task but I always learn something new about php, css, html, ect along the way.

Yes, I did offer 100 dollars to the Wedge project instead of throwing it at a forum license for v.bulletin.  Wedge fits the structure I want for my websites perfectly (especially with the unique privacy features, something my main forum really works upon), and I plan on using it in lieu of WordPress.  Yet even after saying all of that, I feel really bad.  I feel like I am leeching off of Nao's (and in essence Arantor's) hard work, hard work they pretty much did for free.  100 bucks is a drop in the bucket considering how many years was put into wedge.  Wedge is priceless and I am hopeless as to how to give back efficiently.

* Updated Home template to be more... generic, really. It was tailored for wedge.org, and didn't have a reason to be that way in the repo. While the 'default' is still Welcome, I'd appreciate to get feedback from users -- which one should be the default? (If Home is, then Welcome will be completely removed.) (Home.template.php, Home.language.php)
Forgive my ignorance, regarding the final result, is the Home template the very front page I see when going to wedge.org?  With a blurb about the site, then recent posts, recent thoughts and then the board index?  If that is what you mean in regards to the underlying "Home.template.php" then I would say keep Home instead of Welcome.
