Updates & Changes for ZDriver? Comments Wanted...
 
I've been in touch with Silvrhand to make some site adjustments. He's been REALLY busy lately, but asked that we put a list together of things we would like changed / fixed & he will take care of them next week (Dec 16 - 22). So please post anything that you want / need attention on.

My list:

#1... Add MARKETPLACE to main forums page.
#2... Upgrade search feature: No "30 second wait" between searches, and that it will recognize words less than 4 characters in length.

What else?

change the word Marketplace to Classifieds. That seems to be a more reconized name for selling items.

b300z 12-13-2007 11:22 AM

classifieds.

minimum character count.

time between searches.

increasing standard for visible threads.

maybe something about how we are automatically billed for our subs. it should be a notification and an option if you want to renew your sub.

b300z 12-13-2007 11:24 AM

maybe change the front page, so the most recent announcement is on top

b300z 12-13-2007 11:26 AM

and maybe more announcements, or put up a picture of a members ride

entropy31 12-13-2007 11:35 AM

maybe give some site format privelages to admins who visit the site regularly?

limit the size of signature pictures. If not automaticially we could add it to the site rules and post a bulletin.

not sure what you mean by #4.
wtf.. sorry totally my bad this was not some tin hat foil conspiracy, it's been fixed.

NismoPick 12-13-2007 07:35 PM

silvrhand 12-13-2007 07:39 PM

Yep... classifieds works. I tried the search feature... I love the zero wait time! But... 3 letter searches still don't work. Like AFM ... MAF ... ???

only threads that have been posted in in the last month are shown, which means that there are very few visible threads in some forums. this may scare new people away if they dont realize that. id suggest bumping the time up a bit, maybe to like 3 months, if you can

b300z 12-13-2007 08:26 PM

oh, and i was talking about the 10 character length in the messages, not search


thanks for stopping by silvr!

the search limit is more annoying than the message length thing.

snwbrderphat540 12-13-2007 09:06 PM

those suggestions rock, but there is a 300 character length for sigs that is kinda a hassle, cause i can resize my pics for my sig so they are small and not obnoxious but then i cant type more than 10 characters once they are in there....

also, come on canyon carver... come on.... im real help with s30/s130, Z32, only in spots... only in spots... dont hate me cause im beautiful

snwbrderphat540 12-13-2007 09:30 PM

not sure what that means. ^^^


edit: never mind i get it, make them as one pic. well i would, but when i resized it it will smash it to the desired dimensions and look crappy.

not if you do it right.

snwbrderphat540 12-13-2007 11:52 PM

i have 2 real suggestions now.

1. get rid of the 60 seconds between sending pm's

2. give an option to re-send the email confirmation for new members, because i just got a im on aim from a new member that needed his e-mail confirmation re-sent. and i know this has happened at least once before.

edit: oh yeah and im still missing like 2000 posts from my post count :(

second edit: and i motion the idea to change "marketplace" to "classifieds" its what more people look for imo

Niku-Sama 12-14-2007 12:40 AM

yea i'll seccond that one

my werid luck it never came and i was like what the hecks going on?

thanks again 540

hoov100 12-14-2007 02:12 AM

i vote deletion of the post whore thread and that we make a general vehicle repair forum or subforum...
