Chulla 4,946 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 If you click on Activity and then on Online Users you will see how many people have visited the NS site in the last 30 minutes. When I did this a couple of minutes ago (it keeps changing) there were 33 visitors of which only six were members. Six members is a long way from the 60 or so we usually get. Has the new format frightened most of them off? Edit: There would never be 60 online at one go, of course, but cannot see a daily count. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,529 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I can see more detailed information, and during the last 24 hours 79 registered members visited the site (and an unknown number of guests). I'd say that is slightly below a typical figure before the update. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,109 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I noticed similar figures earlier this morning. It'll soon revert back to normal figures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bearing in mind things which have been mentioned previously, I wonder if any of those 79 people tried to post something but found they were unable to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moody cow 87 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Finding this new format awkward. Takes longer to try to find anything .not so quick to look at .sorry but find it off putting,like I can't be bothered sorry I'm trying to work with it. cant help how I find it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisB 150 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I have to agree with the last two posts. I'm sorry to say it's lost much of it's appeal for me now, it's too much hassle trying to find anything, it was much simpler when the most recent posts were listed across the top. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MargieH 7,617 Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Crankypig, Moody cow and ChrisB, after choosing 'Activity' choose 'unread content' also, under the label 'sorting' you can choose 'newest first' Obviously, once you've read a certain topic it no longer appears on your 'unread content' list, so if you want to find it again you have to go back and choose 'activity' again Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mick2me 3,033 Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 For the first time there is a 'contact us' link at the bottom of every page if people have trouble posting. I have already forgotten the old format but as Margie says. its all on the top menu bars starting at either brows or activity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,529 Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 There's also a feature I'm using which I haven't seen anyone else mention yet. Go to Activity, then My Activity Streams and then Create New Stream. It allows you to set up your own filters to show whatever you want to see when you look at the site. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Smiffy49 590 Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 I do not have much time of late to visit this great Nottingham website but when I do I always find something to enjoy in the few minutes I usually have to hand. However, the time it now takes me to try and navigate around the confusing pages may deter me in the future. Sorry to be a little negative about what still is a great website, set up and managed by dedicated people for ordinary people like me... Keep up the good work, but it was far far better as it was before. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonnaB 4,909 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 #10 I found that out a while ago. At first it was very confusing but think now I've got using My activity streams . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mick2me 3,033 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 The latest (V.4.x) plug in which showed the member online today and the max numbers ever online has been installed but it does not show anywhere on the board. The support topic and also the authors own website has disappeared! MembersOnline Today Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chulla 4,946 Posted August 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 It is not so easy to check the list of who has given you a Like tick. Under your avatar picture is the number of Likes (now called Reputations) that you have received - it is the number in green. Click on it and the list that appears on the left side of the screen defaults to 'Status updates'. Click on 'Posts' and they will all appear, along with the Likes that you have given.

katyjay 5,091 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Crikey, just checked to see who is online, and there is a total of 6. 5 members and 1 guest. Never seen so few. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MargieH 7,617 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Katyjay, Perhaps everyone is Christmas shopping? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,091 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 If they are Margie, perhaps they can do mine too. I haven't a clue what to buy everyone. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MargieH 7,617 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Neither have I. We just give everyone money because I hate the thought of buying something they've already got or, even worse, something they don't like! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,109 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Something has happened since first thing this morning. The guests are not now shown for some reason. I liked seeing what old topics folk were viewing. The Forums screen has changed too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,529 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I noticed the same thing sometime this morning. I'd been messing around with my "Activity" settings and assumed it was just me seeing the reduced number. I can get this display of information; Below the heading "Who's Online" there's the list of the 9 people online at that time; and then 29 Guests. However, if I click on "See full list" I don't see a full list...just a list of members. There only seems to be one Guest showing on the list at any time, even though the other heading says there are many more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,429 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I think the mods have been busy. . That's not a complaint. A new poster posted a new topic on Chandos school. I replied. Both posts now moved to the Chandos school thread. Makes more sense. Thanks to whoever moved it. Helps to keep this site great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FLY2 10,109 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Yes, I'm an avid fan. Pure unadulterated innocent fun ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MargieH 7,617 Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I love Strictly Come Dancing. I know that some contestants are kept in just for entertainment value rather than their dancing skills, but I don't think that matters. It's fun and varied, and I'm just amazed at the way the contestants improve each week, despite many of them having other employment as well. Bruno irritates me sometimes but to make an interesting programme, each judge has to be (or has been told to be?) different in the way they evaluate each performance. I really love the dancers' outfits, make up and hairstyles as well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
