I'll start using the new system properly when:

1. I can edit entries.
2. I can look at my conversations page, click on the links there and they bring me to where they are supposed to.

I know you know about all those bugs already. But there is really no way I can use the new system to any great extent until those three are done.

I'll start using the new system when:

1) They re-instate skin support
2) They restore our original naming conventions

Alternately, I'll just hang on and hope that whoever buys the site has the sense to dump it and "roll back" to the last stable DNA front-end version. geek

The new site looks pretty, but I don't know where anything is and all I hear is it doesn't work so I'm sticking with Brunel.

Thanks fluffykerfuffle.

>>>>>>>
i am now pretty sure that the glitch in 'who's on line this site'
>>>>>>>

We'll investigate. Whoever the Who's Online function is not something we're looking at replicating on the new site. It will probably end up being retired, although we know how attached people are to it, so we're genuinely sorry about that.

'Whoever the Who's Online function is not something we're looking at replicating on the new site.'

erm It strikes me that there's an awful lot of 'we're not going to replicate that function' and not a lot of 'here are all the functions that make the site better.'erm

Many seem to agree that the new site 'looks' more 'up to date' than any of the old skins, and I realize that there's some sort of fixation on presenting 'modern' Barlesque look to a prospective buyer, but I don't understand why somebody at the BBC hasn't said, 'right, lets stop throwing good money after bad. Some whizz kid cobble together a Barlesque skin for the old site and let's be done with this thing.'erm

Re: 1-2. Please be assured that these are on list to fix, and will be there for the next release.

Re: 3. As far we're aware you should be able to reply to people's Journal entries now. Just click on 'Discuss this Journal entry' and then hit REPLY in the usual way. Can you let us know if this still isn't working for you. Cheers.

I thought the apostrophe bug had been fixed several days ago, but I just saw a post where it is still a problem.

But once all other bugs are fixed, people will start using barlesque en masse, and the apostrophe bug won't matter anymore.

I mean, wont&#39;t matter anymore winkeye
