ColdBlooded Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Dear members, I was thinking this forum could do with some new functionalities for users. Shoot any suggestions if you think it will add value to your use of MWG forums. We will add them within a reasonable time-frame. Cheers. Quote
Djkanna Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Well if you think there's a need for some new functionality for MWG user, why not share the functionality you think we need? #makesSenseToMe. Quote
ColdBlooded Posted November 20, 2012 Author Posted November 20, 2012 1) Android and iOS apps of MWG. I miss checking latest posts and threads while I'm out and about. Thoughts? 2) Also notifications on the threads you have posted on. If another member replies on your thread or the thread you have replied to, you get notified about it. 3) Able to like other members posts maybe.. ..anymore from anyone? Quote

(it's called subscribed threads, you can set it up to email you). 3): Reputation kind of does this, despite it's anonymity. Quote
Lithium Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 1): I can see that being useful to some. 2): We have it already, check your settings. (it's called subscribed threads, you can set it up to email you). 3): Reputation kind of does this, despite it's anonymity. 1) there's something on the top left corner that states "New Posts" (so... "we" have it already) 2) already replied 3) Reputation does in fact the "same", and @DjKanna, it is not "anonymous" ;) Quote

Dayo Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 personaly i dont like the current rep system, would just prefer the old system of [-] and [+] Quote
sniko Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 personaly i dont like the current rep system, would just prefer the old system of [-] and [+] This. Software automatically detects mobile browser - uses mobile theme Quote
KyleMassacre Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Im posting this idea in regards to snikos new GOTM venture he is currently hosting. Since badges and awards or whatever you wish to call them will be handed out is there away we can get them added to our profile? Quote
ColdBlooded Posted November 21, 2012 Author Posted November 21, 2012 Sniko - I personally would prefer an app to serve this purpose. The app will also create in-phone notifications when you are subscribed to threads/blogs and new content is being posted on there. Right now, MWG does not resize and fit accordingly to your mobile browser app. Good suggestion Kyle. Adding these award badges to your profile could be good. For rep, +1 -1 as anonymous or show usernames? Quote

KyleMassacre Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 In regards to the rep points maybe +1 could/should show and -1 be anon to maybe not start a hate war cause some people take things personal. Also another idea is I believe I spoke to you about this way back when so I dont know if you remember but maybe a game url validator for various paid engines like MC and if A_B wants to hop on the bandwagon NWE for the forums? **Edit** Another thing, maybe fix the fact that when someone posts it tries to double post for some reason or maybe its just me Quote
HauntedDawg Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 MWG as is works perfect on my iphone. Quote
Dayo Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Yea on iPhone both the normal and mobile themes are good for me, don't see the point in spending time and money for something you already have. Quote
Ishraq Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 I use Opera Mobile on my android HTC. I prefer using what loads up. The desktop version. Quote
Uridium Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Im having an issue with MWG when i send a post damn explorer keeps saying do you want to leave this page Quote
Djkanna Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Im having an issue with MWG when i send a post damn explorer keeps saying do you want to leave this page There's issues with this, issues with double posting, issues with editing. Basically the whole forum has gone to the sh[it]s, at the moment. * I hate censors. *bleeping* muth*bleeep* censors. It'll be rectified as soon as it, well, is. Quote

Personalized game dev forum on this board for license holders sounds good. But, how much value will it give the forum holder? How will they use it to benefit their game? Why not just use the general engine owner boards as is? **Edit** Another thing, maybe fix the fact that when someone posts it tries to double post for some reason or maybe its just me Wow that's freaky, its been happening to me too for last 2 days. No clue whats wrong at the moment. Cheers Quote

How will they use it to benefit their game? Why not just use the general engine owner boards as is? What I mean is a field like where we put in our contact info for msn, skype, and all that jazz where we enter our game url, lasses through the validator and if returns true and adds an icon with a link to our game by our contact stuff here in the forums. I havent seen It in a minute but sometimes people post in help topics about the OP not running licensed software. And plus it can be used as some advertising for game owners you know. Quote
Cronic Posted November 29, 2012 Posted November 29, 2012 Getting this error once logged in, Warning: Illegal string offset 'link' in [path]/includes/class_bbcode.php on line 2777 Warning: Illegal string offset 'link' in [path]/includes/class_bbcode.php on line 2791 Warning: Illegal string offset 'link' in [path]/includes/class_bbcode.php on line 2777 Warning: Illegal string offset 'link' in [path]/includes/class_bbcode.php on line 2791 Quote
Sim Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 I'd like a android app to get notified. instead of having to visit or getting emailed when new posts are made. =) I seen on vBulletin, @Cronic would show a notification that someone mentioned them in a posts. I think this could be benifiicial. Quote
