Post by **Rollie** » Sat Dec 30, 2006 2:47 pm

Well, it's been a long time due, but we now have a new look for WarcraftRealms.com!

There has been a lot of effort put into the redesign and I hope you all enjoy it. There will likely be some issues here and there as we make the transition so if you come across any problems, please post in the forums!

Let me know what you think about the new look!

The new look is great. The old site was good too, but the changes are appealing. I'll have to explore the new site more thoroughly before I can comment about the functionality.

Cheers,
Rojin

Wow, looks great!

First thoughts: the my characters page could maybe use a touch more spacing, as some of the columns go a bit close together (one of my servers is EU-Daggerspine, which isn't exactly short, thankfully I don't have any really long guildnames to make it worse!) Those are very minor details though, overall I like the new look a lot, great stuff! Now to have fun learning where to find each page

Yeah, there's going to be a lot of needed touch ups to different pages. Will get 'em done bit by bit!

We're missing the Guild Progression page.

The front link that says "Check out the World of Warcraft Census information here" just loads the main page. I don't think that is what you have intended it to do.

Man I came in and hit refresh on the site and for a moment lost my bearings lol. I love the new look it is much cleaner and more professional looking to me

Seems more pleasing in general on the eyes as well. Especially the main page which seemed kind of cluttered and awkward before with the placement of all the text that was on there. Anyway rambling... I love it !

Great job!

Progression is back.

Link fixed.

Keep 'em coming! =)

Looks lovely

None of the menu buttons work for me though (Community / Realm Data / Graphs / etc) on any page

Is it just me?

It doesn't seem to be holding onto my login currently - every time I log in I check the box that says to remember me, but next time I visit it's forgotten me again

Shouldn't be a cookies issue, I had no trouble with the old site...

Do you have javascript disabled?

notthehoople · Post by **notthehoople** » Sun Dec 31, 2006 12:47 pm

Nope. Javascript enabled.

When i hover the mouse over each of the menu items I can see "javascript:void()" at the bottom left of the browser. I get this for all of the buttons.

I'm using Firefox though, not IE. Could this be the issue?

All the dates on the posts are in UNIX time_t format. Is this normal?

When you hover over the menu's that comes up. Its fine. However there is a menu that will appear below the heading when you mouse over. And I bet Rollie made this site using Firefox and not IE

Try reinstalling Java, I remember running into a problem with IE7 and some websites that used Javascript and I ended up reinstalling Java back and it worked like normal. Try IE and see if it works, otherwise just reinstall Java and see if that helps...

Also having the same issue....

I can't seem to find my server anywhere... US Dunemaul

Any suggestions?

Balgair · Post by **Balgair** » Sun Dec 31, 2006 8:50 pm

Menu problem might be the same as one I just came in to complain about

What I'm seeing, is the menu won't work until the entire page has loaded... and that includes an ad that takes one heck of a long time to load (I'm on broadband, it shouldn't take 2+ minutes!). If I get bored of waiting and hit stop the status bar just says "Done, but with errors on page" so I have to sit there and waaaaaiiiitttt before I can use the menus.

And yeah, I know I'm on ad-free, but given that it's not holding my login that's not a lot of help at the moment
