A Few Changes
-
Hey guys,
I have made some changes to forums. The main changes you may notices is the global sidebar to the right. Currently this is how I want it for the main forum page but I do not want the global sidebar to show the widgets inside a category as they conflict with the category sidebar widgets. This makes the forum look pretty messy. I have asked on the community forums for NodeBB to see if I can add a forum sidebar that will only display on the forum and not globally. Hopefully I will get a reply soon and I can then tidy things up a bit.
I have also changed the width of the forums to accommodate for the sidebars. Previously the forum was very thin when there was a global sidebar and looked kinda odd. I have now made it wider to fill out the screen a bit more, is it wide enough? Too wide? Let me know and I can make a few quick changes to make it perfect.
You may also notice the Live Streams link in the header. This is a new custom page where we can add all our members live streams, currently there is only my stream on the page and I will be adding @Leo’s and @1UP’s soon.
Because these streams are on a different page I wanted to be able to let our members know when a stream goes live. I found this wonderful website that generates a status image for various live stream websites; I have embedded these images into a widget that is displayed on the global sidebar. So now, when one of our streamers goes live, you guys wont have an excuse to not check out their stream!I would love to hear your feedback on these recent changes.

The widget for the streaming is awesome. Good work Scuzz o/ !

How big are those Nav icons?
Having the word Live Streams really bothers me when everything else is an icon. ;;

@Leo Yeah I’m looking into having a logo instead, not entirely sure how to do it though.
