hxckid88 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I only have 1 question, im assuming the brickfolios will be kept in tack and back up eventually? thanks. Quote
Jeff Mack Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 ItHoly smokes....looks like Brickpicker again... Nice work gentlemenIt's getting there. Just a little patience with a few sections like the Brickfolio. Lots of queries to update there as well as the actual login mechanism that will allow you to get to your Brickfolio 2 Quote
Jeff Mack Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I only have 1 question, im assuming the brickfolios will be kept in tack and back up eventually? thanks.Yes, it has already been mentioned several times. Everything will be back. Quote

I really appreciate all the work you guys do. ...stop talking to us and get to work Quote
cdenmier Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Thanks for all the hard work. I manage a corporate website and though I am not the technical side of it I really appreciate the long hours and hard work you've put into this. I've seen it before and am grateful. 1 Quote
pickleboy Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Thanks for all the hard work. I manage a corporate website and though I am not the technical side of it I really appreciate the long hours and hard work you've put into this. I've seen it before and am grateful.I made something similar to BP for a a different subject and I said eff that! (Never got anywhere near the size BP is) So yes...our statements are basically...under statements... Edited April 18, 2015 by pickleboy Quote
diablo2112 Posted April 18, 2015 Author Posted April 18, 2015 Just a great job all around getting the new forum up and running. I totally appreciate what a pain it is to go to an entirely new version/platform. Well done, and I see that you're getting a bit of the look of the old forum back as well. "Badges?!? We don't need no stinking badges!" Quote
comicblast Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Once again, fantastic work Jeff and Ed. Having observed 3 different forum templates and 2 updates, I'm extremely grateful for the time and energy you both invest in this site. I'm sure the small kinks will be ironed out, but for now, everything looks good! Looking forward to everything you have in store for us! Quote
10230 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Looks great - thanks a lot. I do appreciate the effort that goes into maintaining such a system, and upgrading is a (painful) part of that.Maybe one suggestion: swap on the right side "latest topics" with "latest posts" - but that is more a personal issue: I find latest topics more useful and would like them closer to the top, so I don't have to scroll down. Quote
10230 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Actually, after looking closer at it, it is nice as it is. It confused me a bit that the excerpt from the post is so large for each that it takes up a lot of space (and so one even has to scroll to see the last of the "new topics" - but otherwise it is as I like it already now. I don't consider my screen resolution low and my font size is tiny. Does anybody see all of the recent topics in the right menu on http://community.brickpicker.com/ without scrolling - just wondering. Maybe it is just me after all.(btw: somehow quoting totally screwed up just now) Quote
Sprocket77 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 2 days without Brickpicker, as a newbie it's just not good enough. Without the forums to study I ended up buying multiple Prince of Persia sets, 50 ConstrucT-A-ZURGs and the whole set of World Racers. That's me royally screwed Quote
ZULU Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Well done. Thanks for this nice software update. Quote
cissi Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Honestly, I just logged into the new admin for the first time. I have had about 3 minutes with it so far today. My job is killing me. Ha, I know time is always limited, especially when one tries to accomplish so much! Thanks again, Jeff, for doing all these! When you see so many people find themselves lost without BP site up one day, you know doing this is rewarding! BTW, is there a way to make the subject title of the new replies the same so they don't look like flooding in inbox? Or is it a preferable way that people wants to know who replied to the thread? Just curious, thanks! Edited April 18, 2015 by cissi Quote
tabolton314 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 The app appears not to work anymore. Hasn't since the forum went down. I get an error saying it can't connect. I also already uninstalled and reinstalled. Anybody else seeing this or am I just special? Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Also, just point people to this post if they keep talk about missing images, or other oddities. You will see that in the background it is updating a bunch of information, it will take a little bit.Wow. That is a lot of processes to update and run. Good golly. Quote
Jeff Mack Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Wow. That is a lot of processes to update and run. Good golly.Well that rebuilding posts progress was basically at 12% yesterday. Right now it has at 67%. So maybe early tomorrow morning it will finish? I am pretty sure this is a large reason why the site is not very snappy. I will wait to see what happens once that is done and it had a chance to rebuild its indexes. Quote
inversion Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Hehe this reminds me of some of my acquaintances who always requested capacity from the university's supercomputer for their 'research project'. In reality they were rendering videos and doing commercial stuff that took time on normal machines. I wonder why nobody ever checked what the resources were used for. Supervision only became tighter last year when some students began to mine bitcoin... 1 Quote

I am pretty sure this is a large reason why the site is not very snappy. I will wait to see what happens once that is done and it had a chance to rebuild its indexes. The site seems to have converted over fine so far from what I can see. I am happy to see all the thread polls made the transition okay and look good too. I remember going through with redoing them all over before from the 2.0 upgrade. Anyway, I can wait a week for the rebuild if that is what it takes for the process to go perfect. Quote
joel4motion Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Whilst logged in on the old mobile version the site would remember where you last left the thread and put you back there when you reopened it. Currently not doing that for me. I have to select the last page and manually find the new posts. Mobile site looks great though. Quote

Currently not doing that for me. I have to select the last page and manually find the new posts. Mobile site looks great though.The website is doing the same for me. I have to find the last post that I read manually and start from there. Will this issue be fixed in the future? Quote
Jeff Mack Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 If anyone has a moment, can you please logout, then back in again and then check to see if you can view your brickfolio. Again, you will most likely need to logout first to see if this works. Quote
