Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Beta testers needed

Alright, so the index page on the new PM system is almost complete. While I'm working on the PM viewing page, I want people to be testing out every bit of the index page.

I don't need very many people, and all I need you to do is unsubscribe from a few PMs and move them around from folder to folder and make sure it behaves like it's supposed to. If you sign up I'll set you up with about 10 PMs and 2 extra folders on top of the Inbox folder that everyone has. Be sure to try putting all your PMs in one box and moving PMs out of the second page. For the beta test, the number of PMs listed per page is set to 5.

Wrong PM system. I'm making a new one and dropping that one.

Re: Beta testers needed

Okay, got some more volunteers from IRC and now I have enough. Once I finish the moving PM part of the code I'll work on getting fake PMs written up.

Re: Beta testers needed

Okay, Kubapolish, Prodigy, Dyro/HG, Zoey2070, and Processor. I need all you nubs to go to the new PM index page and just move your PMs around from folder to folder and make sure that the correct messages got moved, and that it didn't miss any and that there aren't any stowaway topics. And also try unsubscribing from a few of them (unsubscribe from one in each folder) and also make sure that the right ones are unsubscribed from. And like I said, I need people to try moving and unsubscribing from topics that are on the second page. If you unsubscribe from all your topics and need me to re-subscribe you to them again, just let me know.

Re: Beta testers needed

o_O This beta testing is a good thing for me but when unsubscribing does it mean Delete?

Re: Beta testers needed

Yes, I named it unsubscribing because nothing is being deleted. The message and the conversation still lives on, you're just not a part of it any more.

Oh ok but still there should be a tab off the pm you unsubscribed and after a limited time it could delete unless you want to delete it yourself //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/tongue

Re: Beta testers needed

Works for me although it'll probably be added after I finalize the rest of the system if people want it.

Re: Beta testers needed

^^ Consider it helping. Don't mean to offend, but the original post just wasn't that easy to understand //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/tongue

To be fair I had trouble phrasing it too

The PM viewing page is in the process of being written up. That said, that is a really weird error since I know that the column exists. No it doesn't. I typo'd "topics" for "private_topics".

Re: Beta testers needed

The index page has been pretty thoroughly tested by now. I've moved on to working primarily on other parts of the PM system.

that's the worst, though. Not having a fancy development program to do all that... whenever working with SQL and PHP 'n whatnot, I'm spending more time checking column names than actually punching code.
