The "Forum ideas / Bugs / Request" thread

Thanks the emails are back

I dont mean to rush anything, but is there any progress updates on making a mobile version of HPC:factor for HPCs?

Thanks,
Joseph

I think it's a fair question to ask. C:Amie is plenty busy, but it never hurts to gently remind him. :+D The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Just don't squeak too loud or he might get his feathers ruffled. heh heh

Yeah, and then he'll come over and pour grease on you.

I got a request, and hopefully it shouldnt be too hard to implement, but still.

Is there a way that you can make the website/forum "stretch width to fit"
I'm finally the lucky owner of a screen that displays 1920x1200 (WUXGA), and I have a LOT of empty space availiable on the right site of the screen when browsing.

The forum is delimited, as is the HCL.
The remainder of the editorial content uses limited regions; it was a design constraint of V2 as V1's delimited margins was unruly. I have no plans on reversing this.
The decision isn't one of a melodramatic 4:3 user. I am aware of what it looks like on the Widescreen displays, I put the site up on my 37" to check content changes frequently.

No progress on the mobile mod. It might be something I sit down and do over the summer. I'm not going to make any promises here though; this way I cannot disappoint any users.

That's too bad, cuz for the rest of us there's the opposite problem of the pages being too wide for our screens (usually when images are attached).

lol this is how you're going to disappoint users for sure...

Thanks for the progress update, C:Amie .. Anything that you do to make HPC:Factor better on HPCs (shhh or PPCs ) would help ..

C:Amie, the emails are down, again. :+( I assume you already are aware of this. I'll doublecheck my profile to make sure it didn't get inadvertently changed. Let me know if you think it is on my end.

yes they seem to be down here too

C:Amie, if it helps in the debugging process, I noticed email notifications died near the end of March and again near the end of April. I don't know if there is anything to this timing, but it appears to be about 30 days apart. Maybe it's just coincidence, but I'm hoping this helps you.

OT: This is my 200th post.

The problem is the SMTP server actually. When it goes, it goes.

Unfortunately more servers are not an option - unless anyone knows of a server tree?

Sorry to hear it's random. That makes it more frustrating for you, I'm sure. Email notifications are a nice convenience, but by no means vital. Personally, I can live without the feature even though I like it. If you find a solution, great. If you have to disable or discontinue it, that won't detract from the community IMO.

It will get fixed, the problem isn't with the web site, it's purely the standalone mail system. While you're not getting notifications, I'm not sending / receiving email.
