Yes, it's Invision's platform. But why would you expect the average player to know that or to know what "Powered by Invision Community" even means? It's DE's forums. Their name is on it, so it's expected that the average user would address DE with any complaints. That's appropriate. DE will forward such complaints to Invision and Invision will help fix it. That's how the line of communication works. Invision communicates with businesses. Businesses communicate with their customers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should've picked a better title, one that referenced this being one in a series of technical issues with the forums, and you should've mentioned those issues in this post.

Lion Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Old version of the forums was perfect, IMO. The design was still fresh/modern by today's standards, was not in need of a face-lift. Now it's pretty painful to even browse it (on mobile that is). I really don't see the need for the change and I hope DE takes note of the feedback.

Things like this (some logos doesn't show) happens all the time however it's not important. Can you post and read on the forum? If you couldn't post/read then that would be bad. I have even checked one thread with images. It works. So, from my PC experience, I don't see any trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I personally haven’t seen very much difference on the laptop version, but other people have told me that it’s slightly worse. That may or may not be true, but it’s certainly not any better than it was before. And as for the mobile version, trust me, it’s absolutely broken. You can’t go into account settings or check your recent posts, and notifications have been pretty buggy, and that’s not even the full list of whats wrong with it, it’s awful. Also, as I’ve said to a couple other people, this post isn’t really about just the missing logo, that alone isn’t a big deal. It’s the accumulation of things going wrong with forums that concerns me.

The Forum software itself is done by Invision and then DE has to adapt and configure the website -- usually when this happens they're quick, but I guess COVID + vacation + post TennoCon + God knows what has affected this. They'll probably need to check and see what needs to be adapted. Anyways, I just hope they take advantage of this to try and upload the avatars that haven't been yet (Xaku, Inaros Prime, etc).

(PSN)Lei-Lei_23 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Yeah, on mobile the accessibility is very limited. You’re forced to zoom out to 50% Reader View and have your phone or mobile device tilted sideways in order to expand to desktop mode, giving you the full amenities of the forum options. It wasn’t like this before, or at the very least the only options affected was certain post privileges like bullet/number points etc. Prior to the changes you could access your Profile, Notifications and Latest Staff Replies, and the forums form-fitted themselves to the view of the mobile device’s screen without breaking toward the right and portraying empty space. This is just very inconvenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the specific issues but I highlighted the main points of what I was trying to say. You may be right though, not everyone uses the mobile version, so maybe I should have been more specific. 2) I already made a post specifically about the technical issues with forums. When I saw the broken logo I thought it would be a good opportunity to push the matter a bit farther by making a post about that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKerris Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 rofl This is DE's mess. People should really stop trying to push it on Invision. Invision is primarily a software company which happens to do forum software. They may be doing service packages right now, but the state of this site makes it obvious that DE like many are not paying for one. If they were it wouldn't be so broken. I used to use Invision on one of my forums and like other forum software it can be a pain to configure. The image error which has now been fixed looked as if it may have been a copy paste error. Which ended up pointing to the wrong location for the image. Not all that hard to believe that it could happen considering that the guy at DE probably had to look at Invision's instructions for the "new and improved" version of the mobile website. As to why the changes... Well someone did say that they were not warned that they were coming. Which to me means that Invision pushed them and unfortunately these forums were set up to auto update.

What? What Invision Community forum? This is an Invision Community forum. Leave feedback here (or, rather, in the proper feedback subforum), then DE passes that along to Invision if DE doesn't have the means of fixing it themselves. More than likely, DE has the means of fixing it themselves. You all don't hold DE responsible for anything. Again, it's not a big deal and certainly didn't require this thread being made, but DE has the tools to manage their own forums, so they should be the first point of contact for any forum issues.

This post isn't about the forums logo being broken, although it may have seemed that way initially. The first sentence I wrote was "First you ruin the mobile version and now this?". In other words pointing out yet another embarrassing mistake that was made on the forums website. It was meant to underline and emphasize the complaints that have already been made in regards to the most recent forums update. I now see that my OP was not very clear, and have since updated it to better reflect the message that I was trying to convey in the first place. That message being; the update has ruined the mobile version of forums, and even after the update silly careless mistakes continue to occur. These problems need to be fixed rather than broken even farther. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)demishock Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Ever since the update, it's impossible to scroll up and down on mobile, too. It just bounces up and down like it's hitting an invisible wall. Has made checking the forums on my phone virtually impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
