I did mention this earlier but must've been washed over in all the frenzied activity.

Do a hard refresh that has been taken care of

I'm afraid so, sorry about that!

The bug report thread was pretty difficult to keep up with in the beginning, but I feel we're getting somewhere now.

A minute spelling mistake needs to get fixed

Fixed with a hint of irony

Maybe a bug or not but on mobile (Android/Chrome) a link to the homepage/index page is missing.

Although there is HOME link in the breadcrumb but a logo link in the navbar would be wonderful

Dark theme mobile, minor bug for longer Category names:

Ok, one more request.

It'd be good if the font-weight is changed on the link (thread titles) visited. Currently, it just changes the colour to a lighter grey and makes it a bit hard to recognize that the thread has been visited/read by self.

Vanilla shows my timezone for posts as GMT +5 instead of GMT +5.5

Browser: opera/duckduckgo/safari/ firefox
OS: Mac Catalina/ iOs/ android
Theme : either
Thanks

I think 'Discussions' and 'Categories' should be flipped position wise.

Can we get the plugin for Vanilla the saves the Quick reply box on reload?

I'll look into that, thanks.

This has been an issue in Vanilla for over 6 years unfortunately. I can sort it but I'd have to go over and create a pull request at Vanilla - so it'll take a while. Here's the issue: https://github.com/vanilla/vanilla/issues/1626

Thanks for confirming, I figured it was a Vanilla issue.

@Solaire - quick ask - would it be possible to have a slightly darker (non-white, more grayish) background on the main page for discussions that have no unread posts for logged in users? Something similar to LET, where the background is white only when there's an unread post (and it sort of "highlights" that discussion). It is (to me) much easier on the eye when there's a bold-font as well.

I'm struggling to discern the read-vs-unread discussions on the main page as they're all uniformly listed.

Thanks in advance.

On the dark theme code tags make text the same color and is unreadable.

It'd be nice if we could tab from the textarea for comments right to Post Comment. Right now it links to the Markdown wikipedia.

This is controlled with the tabindex property.

The OK and Cancel button captions for adding hyperlinks have the same color as the background. They do change to green on hover. I could not dismiss the dialog after adding the link (neither OK nor Cancel works), had to click outside the dialog to dismiss.

Edit: Even the edit gear wheel has the same color as the background. I thought this new Vanilla does not allow posts to be edited at first. Hard to see below:

Dark theme on Chrome 78.x on Debian with uBlock.

That was quick. I can already see things so much better and it is eminently more readable for me. Thank you so much for a really important ergonomic change.

Now if I could just speed up my brain to comprehend things faster...

This one goes to @Phill , he beat me to it . It's only working for the default theme though - so I'll have a look at that to make sure it also works on dark / grey.

Sorted. Will be included in the next update:

Change log for the next update. If I missed anything so far, please let me know.

Please empty / clear your cache. This was sorted days ago

Sorted . Dismissing it still doesn't work by clicking ok / cancel, that's a more long-term thingy.

There is a tabindex on the Post Comment option but I'm afraid it's overridden by the editor. I'm kinda missing ctrl + enter myself but I'll have to look into the editor at some point to fix a few things so while I'm at it I'll take a peek at this

UPDATES IN - HARD REFRESH!

Thanks for the hard work, Design Team! I think the UX improvements since the start has made the forum so much more user-friendly. It's a lot easier to understand the various state of discussions on different platforms! I am really enjoying the UX a lot better than the one on LET. It's like a short-sighted person putting on glasses after years of blurry vision.

Thanks Solaire for the updates
And phill too

Quick nitpick: can the Design Team tag (maybe other roles too as long as they're contributing more than a general member) be in a different color so that it/they stand(s) out?
