The forum, helpdesk and some other areas will be getting the new header/footer elements for our website integrated into them this week.
If you see the forum looking a little odd while these changes are being made, that is why. Just give it a few minutes to clear up.
This won't affect vPanel...only forums, helpdesk and similar future public facing sites.
;-( I was still hoping for some identification of the account type in play in the logo or title on top for example. 'VOIPo Residential' vs. 'VOIPo Express' vs. [plug in 'Carrier-Phoenix' or whatever down the line ;-) ].Quote:

Does the new forum theme work for everyone here now?
It works, but the width has diminished considerably. Was it meant to do so?Quote:

Looks nice! The width is narrower. I cant tell yet if that is easier on the eyes.
I think we are all waiting for the ONLINE sign to flash so we can talk to the VOIPo babe!
(Did I just say that??!) LOL

Do you suppose that customers who are daring enough to switch to VOIP, still function on 800x600? ;)Quote:

Accessing these pages also changes the color scheme (slightly) in the billing tabs--the font on the tabs becomes black.
Do you intend to import this header to the billing portal? If so, can you have it 'skip' the header when accessing the support/knowledgebase pages from the billing system?
Loads perfect now and looks good.
The "inside" header in Tickets/KB within billing needs to go.Quote:

Any opinions on whether to use this header/design and put "vPanel" and "Billing" inside of it so we're 100% consistent on all sites or just leave vPanel as is?
I think I like the 'full size' forum better :(
This doesn't come close to looking good on my 24" LCD.........
Not that I'm complaining, but, agreed. Looks nice though.Quote:

Same here...I personally like the full size better..Quote:

Keep with your original plan for these pages, and get rid of the 'inner' banner when rendering the support/kb sites with the billing or vpanel header already on the screen. While I see some value in 100% consistency, there's plenty of room for differences between the customer-only facing pages and the public-facing pages.
I would like to see the color of vBulletin to change and match the gray theme. It looks nice though. Also, the page title for the vpanel client area is "VoIPo" while everywhere else has "VOIPo" with the "o" capitalized. Just find that strange..
A suggestion; unless I'm a "Forest Gump" and I can't find it. In the forum section; main web site page, vpanel site, and billing site; maybe you could put links to the OTHER portions of VoipO. I.e. In the forum site, under the "Quick Link" tab, have links to billing, voipo.com and the vpanel. Again, if this already there, then I'll get another "Box of Chocolates" and look again. Thx... Mike....
I like the full size too also doesn't have to scroll down too much with the full size :)
I like things a bit bigger CTRL+ on FF throws the header off a bit.
I like the larger format. Can't you make it dependent on the info/capability/settings passed by the Browser?
Tim,
is there any plans for making the forum mobile friendly?
I cannot login into the forum on my Nokia E51 via its builtin browser nor Mini Opera browser. As if my login credentials were not matched, and I know for sure I entered them properly:confused:
however, I can login the control panel just fine - again making this mobile friendly would be nice
I had to capitalize the first letter of my password to get another forum to work... because the phone automatically capitalizes the first letter on a line and I can find no way to stop it.
I do not think that I mistyped the credentials as
I cut & paste mine
