What happened to the "Users last active in the past 24 hours" bar? I don't know why, but the Information Center bar looks just really bare. Is the "birthdays" thing even there anymore?

I changed the 'Featured Scripts' section, but as far as I know, that worked.
Has anyone else done anything?

Is there a way you can add a feature that allows you to edit/remove already-existing polls in a thread? I find it annoying that once you put a poll up, you can't edit/remove it. Some of the polls in some threads have been locked for ages, it just looks messy.

Some of the polls in some threads have been locked for ages, it just looks messy. I'll look into it. It's something that was bothering me too, but it's not top of my priorities just yet =)

Righters Untie Version 4.3 * In order to counter the problems the forum was having with the central alignment clashing with other codes, I've removed it in part. Now only the logo is centrally aligned =) * Added some funky little sidebars to the RUN page that displays every show (not including movies) in alphabetically order available on the RUN. danhoger.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=runetwork* Links and colour coding (to specify which shows are finished/cancelled/etc) will be updated soon. Also adding a feature too allow writers to request reviews for a certain show.* It is not possible to delete polls once they have been attached to a thread. However, it is possible to manually hide them from view. I have implemented a code that will allow me to hide specific polls once they have ended. However, polls can only be hidden by changing the code - you cannot do this yourself unfortunately proboards doesn't provide a way to delete polls unless you delete the whole thread. If you want to make polls in the future I would suggest a separate thread tbh, so that you can delete it when you're finished.

I love the sidebars with all the shows, would it be possible to link them to the show, however? It'd make it much more efficient I think... It just seems a bit pointless to have it sitting there without giving it links.

I am working on it, but I actually don't have enough time to finish all of the links and what I have planned for the RUN today (and it'd be even more pointless to have half of the links completed and the other half not!). So I'll finish that off tomorrow mate =D In the meantime, here's something to whet your appetite: danhoger.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=runetwork&action=display&thread=3091

Johno's been making some good suggestions.
After cruising around the new layout all day I saw a couple things too. Completed Seasons are sticky'd. I'm all for promoting/honoring completed seasons (with a separate sub-board possibly?), but personally I'd prefer to see new shows at the top of the RUN pages, not seasons that wrapped up a year or two ago that no one is reading anymore. Maybe that's just me.
And it's a minor quibble, but when writing out a post, the text is all grey'd out. It's fine when you post it, just kind of annoying when you're writing. Any way to revert this?
My eyes are still adjusting to the Central Alignment change... so I'll get back to you on that.
Otherwise, loving everything else I've come across.

I understand where you're coming from. This is however just a temporary fix! I didn't want to move the threads into the "Full Seasons" board just yet because whoever made that board hasn't done it themselves, so I assumed it was still being dicussed? So as a temporary/trial thing I thought it'd be nice to group them together in some other fashion. The nice thing is now, if I am to unsticky them, they will all be moved down simultaneously when new posts go above them and will remain grouped together (at least in theory) =D And it's a minor quibble, but when writing out a post, the text is all grey'd out. It's fine when you post it, just kind of annoying when you're writing. Any way to revert this? This is a colour scheme thing. I'll play around with some colours on the test forum and change it here when I find the right one =)

I noticed that when you post up something, a linked url is practically nearly the same color as the rest of the text. Hi.comIt's hard to notice where the url is and it's kind of annoying to have to manually change the color, do you think you can mess with the coding for that too? I was on Blake's JP thread and it took me a minute to notice that his script was linked in the post because it was pretty much the same color as the rest of the text. The old forum had it a bright blue so it stood out, maybe give it a cool bright purple/blue color here too? Or is that something we'd have to change manually? Sorry if I'm annoying you, just voicing my concerns. ;D

Righters Untie Version 4.4b

Righters Untie Version 4.5
* Finalised the layout of the Welcome Table. Displays "New Shows" (the most recently announced shows), "New Episodes" and "Latest Reviews".
* Adjusted the colour of text input to Black. ^^
* Continuous updates to the RUN Sidebars.
* Added a "Now Playing" feature to posts! Whenever you write a post you can now add what you're currently listening to (if you want).
* Added a "Reason for Editting" feature to modifying posts. Whenever you make an edit you can now divulge the reason for your edit if you want and it appears in small print at the bottom of your post.
I will continue to make adjustments and continue making sure the RUN information (new shows etc) remains as up-to-date as possible for as long as I have the administration powers to do so.
Reason for Editing: Added the "Reason for Editing" feature.

Righters Untie Version 4.6
* Done a bit of what I consider to be a "clean-up" to board layout and whatnot.
* Moved the RUN and closely associated boards into it's own RUN category. The RUN is a fully-functioning machine in its own right and I figured it deserved its very own category.
* Created new Contests and Competitions board for the hosting of official forum events.
* Moved old contests out of the archives and back into the Contests category. Even though these contests are old, the archives are not available for people to look at, but I feel like these huge contests should be on show (and would help in attracting potential members)! I've tried my best to keep it neat however.
* Renamed the "Social Issues, Politics, Philosophy etc..." board to "Current Affairs and Debate".
* Moved the so-called "Large Archives" boards into the "Archives" as sub-boards, removing excess categories, whilst deleting nothing.
* Especially for Johno... Increased the "View recent posts" from 20 to 30.
* Added an Affiliates section, which currently needs filling in.
* Got rid of the annoying feature that tells you how many sub-boards a board has because honestly, who cares, and it looked messy! /shudder
Reason for Editing: View recent posts changed again

Righters Untie Version 4.7
* Overhauled the Quick Reply area. Now it contains those all important buttons for codes and colours =D You can also expand/collapse the Quick Reply area (and the forum will remember this setting).
* Done a couple of aesthetic changes, stuff you may or may not notice...
* Reverted back to the original info centre.
* There is now a "Posts Since Last Visit" button (located near the bottom of the main page - just above the info centre). It does exactly what it sounds like it does.
* Achievements have been added. That's right, you can now earn in-forum achievements, but what those achievements are, of course, is top secret! It's like you're on the 360 or something! (All achievements are to do with RUN).

Forgot to mention you can view your achievements in your profile =)
And I'll be adding more and more achievements too, I think there's 12 at the moment though.
