Freebird Posted December 7, 2014 #1 Posted December 7, 2014 You've had a couple of weeks to adjust to the new site. Are you pretty much getting it down now? Really not that many changes when you really get into it. I'm always a bit surprised when I get emails saying "how do I post on the new site". Posting is exactly the same as it was on the old one.
Yammer Dan Posted December 7, 2014 #2 Posted December 7, 2014 I'm still lost!! No wait a minute I was already lost. Or in hiding. Yeah that's it.....just hiding Sun is shining. I'm going to the garage.
bongobobny Posted December 7, 2014 #3 Posted December 7, 2014 Awww, Don, you already know I'm well, adjusted...
Venturous Randy Posted December 7, 2014 #5 Posted December 7, 2014 I think it is doing very good with all the tweaks you have done to it. I like the map being back, but I did like to be able to look at the Members List by state as it was before. RandyA
Guest divey Posted December 7, 2014 #6 Posted December 7, 2014 I think the new site is great Don. I too would like to have the members list available by Province/State. Doug
tz89 Posted December 7, 2014 #7 Posted December 7, 2014 Yes, but... Yes, it works quite well now that the tweaks are in place. But, somehow it seems a bit less like a messy old garage full of guys having fun and a bit more like any other forum. I can't put my finger on it exactly, so maybe it's just that 'change' changes the flavor a bit. On the techy side, do web stats show a difference in use or participation?
eagleeye Posted December 7, 2014 #8 Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) I think I've learned more about the new one than I knew about the old one. And am getting on good. New or old, I'm always trying to figure things out. Well, I see adding my visited states maps didn't work. I think I know what I did wrong though, so I'll try and fix it. Well, I got one of them.

utadventure Posted December 7, 2014 #14 Posted December 7, 2014 Still the best site on the web! Thanks for the great work.
Freebird Posted December 7, 2014 Author #15 Posted December 7, 2014 Members by state was a customization that I had done also. You can find members by state by using the advanced members search. Another step or two but not hard to do. Still, I'll look at adding it back.

I may not be completely understanding your question but as far as I know, stats should be the same.
tz89 Posted December 7, 2014 #17 Posted December 7, 2014 I was just wondering if you had noticed a difference of any kind. Did long time members show up less, or post less, or something. Did people stay on for longer or shorter sessions? That kind of thing.
Freebird Posted December 7, 2014 Author #18 Posted December 7, 2014 Oh...I see. Don't know but will take a look and see.

Freebird Posted December 7, 2014 Author #20 Posted December 7, 2014 The change seems to have had no negative affect. Here are the latest stats.

Skid Posted December 7, 2014 #21 Posted December 7, 2014 I like it ok but not on the Tapatalk app. After the change if I click on unread threads I get over 200 where I used to only get the new threads since last log in.
Freebird Posted December 7, 2014 Author #23 Posted December 7, 2014 Skid, I think that is because of the way that cookies are handled now. Now any unread messages are truly saved as unread where before, they were marked read when you left.
Marcarl Posted December 7, 2014 #24 Posted December 7, 2014 It seems ok to me,, but then it's Sunday and on Sunday everything should be ok. Now Bob on the other hand, still needs some adjusting,,,, next time out I'll get to it.
Skid Posted December 7, 2014 #25 Posted December 7, 2014 It's like that on the other forum too. I use the mobile page without the app more now.
