XF2.3 feedback and comments

[Miri]

A strange icon accompanies the forum category links when I hover over them with the mouse.

On desktop, when viewing the forums page (/community), if I hover the mouse cursor over a forum node name/link, I see a small graphic/icon appear near the end of the name/link text but I do not see the tooltip with the node's description. I also don't know what that graphic/icon is supposed to be.

lol... My last post is the same issue @Miri reported

This is a feature, not a bug.

You may now send a direct message to yourself.

Well this is depressing.

Unable to insert video into post

It can be attached but cannot be inserted into the editor

 

[Corey]

I believe this is also fixed.
Let us know if it's still happening.

I'm able to reproduce on some names but not all. For example I can on Kier and my name but not Paul B, Chris D, Jeremy P or Slavik.

Missing language string or something??

The darkest black shade (backrgound, sidebars) should be lighter (less dark).

We intentionally make use of black in order to allow OLED and mini LED displays to save energy.

While the colours may seem to be quite contrasty, many are at the lower limit of contrast for Lighthouse to consider the design accessible.

Of course, admins may trivially change the default colours on their own sites.

Not sure if this is 2.3 specific - on Latest Activity, clicking 'Show older items' will load 15 more results, but subsequent clicks will keep loading the same 15 results over and over.

Is this thread being used for bugs/issues until the public beta?

This one was also sorted yesterday.

This makes sense considering you were the one that told us about this new dark style.
The beauty of it is we can tweak the colours if we want a brighter and colourful background.

omg I can now talk to myself online as well as in real life! Glorious!

But seriously, Microsoft Teams has this feature which is very handy for making notes... and silly jokes about talking to yourself, to yourself.

@Chris D

Just a little feedback on the new dark mode now I've had a day to get used to it.

It's great and is so dark that it looks like someone's switched the light off. However, I would tweak the text colour on the home page to something a little lighter. It can still be blue, perhaps, but just a bit brighter I think would look a little better. I'd have to experiment to suggest any particular colour and I know we can tweak to our heart's content for our own sites.

btw, I like the instant switching between light and dark - no page loading delays.

@Paul B twitter login gives an error

@Paul B a beta bug. Probably needs merging into other thread.

Videos won't load, and messages can't be deleted

Do you mean videos can't be inserted into the editor, or they don't play?

 

[Suzanne O]

Looks like they won’t insert.
Just tried with a video of my cat

 

[Paul B]

We're aware of that issue - just trying to determine if that's what @Miri meant.

The purple is far too blue.
