HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

URL Links replace the HaloMods window, rather than opening a new tab.

Avatars that are 80 x 80 overlap with the 'Online' banner near our usernames. I'm leaning toward having them 'on top' of usernames, or not having them at all.

Isn't that a browser option (as opposed to it being PHPBB3's "fault")?

You must be running a very low resolution. Or a very narrow window. And I think what GTAF said is correct.

I was unaware. I assumed that since the feature appears to have changed due to the move to PHPBB3, that it was the culprit. I shall research.

While many browsers may allow you to force this, it is by far not a "browser option [...] as opposed to be PHPBB3's 'fault'". A proper link to an external resource would be formatted, in its <a> tag, to open in a new window, which the forum is not doing.

I understand they did it to meet specifications, but it's silly.

Wheel/center click.

Whether it can be solved client-side or not, the software is still not using proper formatting. That's the issue here.

No wheel or middle mouse click because I use a wacom pen.

No thread subtitles yet, or so I believe.

When a new reply is posted, and you're at the index, there's no text link that links to the new post. Instead, you have to navigate to subforum, then to topic, then to post. It's a bit less convenient.

There's a little icon next to the poster name which takes you to the most recent post in that category.

Oh... well isn't that handy...

In the top under the banner, it goes index then haloMods, but they're identical except halomods General is spread out. Was this done on purpose, or just a redundancy?

All of the boards are in a single set of boards titled "HaloMods". They are then further divided into "HaloMods General" and "Forum", but this division is hidden when viewing the main index. I think it was done for the aesthetics of the main page more than anything else, and the bread crumbs are more of a side effect.

It wasn't done on purpose, but I don't really feel it's an issue. If anyone has any real problems with it, let me know and I'll 'fix' it.

Extremely old posts may have lost their date tags during any one of the upgrades. 0 = 12/31/69

I've seen odd date errors like that on Halomods in the past. It's just some sort of glitch that phpBB boards experience sometimes.

When will it be fixed?
