Great and useful site.
A minor problem is that there is currently no visual feedback on entries I upvoted. The up arrow remains dark orange. I would expect the up arrow to turn light orange as the down arrow after I upvoted. But this is a detail.
Yes good idea, thanks.Â
Great work on the site! This is my primary source for keeping up with the Go community.
One minor suggestion: On the log-in page, it would be great if the cursor focus automatically jumped to the Username field when the page loaded.
Thanks, will add that to the list.Â
Hello @kenny, first of all good job with the new internal and front-end changes, I liked all of them but I have one recommendation,
At the list of news and topics the previous color was better than the full black, you may want to change that as before and make it transparently when visited ( like you did now, but with a lighter color than raw black when is not visited)
hmm, I quite like the black because it is more legible (a bit boring I know), what did you prefer about the colour, more interesting? I was worried the blue wasn't strong enough on some browsers.Â
Ok, I'll go first! Â I like the idea of styling, the styling options are pretty basic though. Like that you can use emoji too : )
Weekly email is planned, stay tuned, also subscribe to the twitter handle if you haven't already.
Just fixed a bug introduced with the new changes - newly registered users couldn't log in as their role was left empty.Â
Nice. But still something crucial like reset password is missing.
If I go to sign up or login I get submit in the menu, that's the idea?
I have the code in for that, just need to check the mail setup and add the link.
