After seeing @westridge ask for a changelog of genetic updates over here i thought it would be nice to keep everyone up to date with changes we are making here on the forum.
The User list has upgraded from the simple list to a detailed “user card style” layout.
This includes social links on each card… See 3) on how to add them.
The “website” field on user profiles has now been changed to “MorphMarket Store”.
This is to keep your store easily findable.
Any current non MorphMarket Store URL you have there should be moved to the correct field… (See 3))
Social Fields added.
You can now add social links to your profile to make it easier for other users to find.
To do so, head to your “profile preferences” page in your settings…
Firstly, there is a new optional theme that you can choose named “Morph”.
This isn’t really a big change for users that use the “dark” theme already.
The most noticeable differences being:
Rounded buttons →
Darker tones. White, grey and black used throughout to match MorphMarkets scheme.
To apply this theme, head over to your profile by clicking your profile picture in the top right.
Click the little user icon ( ) and select “preferences” → “interface” →"theme".
Secondly, hovering videos.
Now when someone posts a video in a thread, you can click this little icon in the top right corner of the video player…
And it will pop up as this little box in the corner of your screen…
This allows you to continue browsing any part of the forum you wish while still watching the video. This is a perfect way to spend your date with Dr Travis Wyman.
There is known issues beyond my powers to address with this.
If you switch the side of the screen that the pop-up player sits while watching a video, it will restart the video.
You must press play before leaving the source topic
The third and biggest change is the new “featured tiles” across the top of the latest page.
The badges next to the name don’t show up for me for some reason. It’s just like it was before without the badges.
Google Chrome version: 85.0.4183.133 (Official Build) (64-bit)
This is mainly for users that are also Sellers on MorphMarket, though it can be used by anyone.
There is now a new tab in your user menu that has several useful links to your store
@staff Members will also find extra buttons here to make navigation easier.
