New DarcyF1 - Test Today!
admin 8 years 8 years
EDIT
=========
The test site is no longer available as the new site is published!
=========

Open for public testing! The new DarcyF1 is now available to all members to test.
We'd love to have you come on over to our test site to check out the new look and features of DarcyF1 but there's thing you need to know first.
Please familiarise yourself with the current issues -> https://www.f1tv.xyz/report.php
You'll probably deduce the test site's home page is https://www.f1tv.xyz
The point of having a test site is that you can get on, try it out and (most importantly) let me know what doesn't work. We're always interested in feedback and suggestions too, but you must report all issues you discover; simply use the Report Problem link at the bottom of every single page. Feedback and suggestions can just me messaged through to me. Please give yourself time to adjust to changes before writing them off, and consider providing constructive feedback if you don't like a change.
Some important notes.
1. This is still a work in progress. You may find some things work one day but don't the next - I'm probably making changes.
2. Some pages have been completely re-written and should work great, while others have been roughly translated and may be a bit clumsy - report what's going wrong!
3. Niceties are missing - changing themes, discord link.
4. Critical system functions have not been replicated into test - moving files from the FTP to the website is one of them.
5. Some things will link back to the main site - feel free to use the main site to do things that you can't do on the test site yet (like discuss the new site on the Forums).
6. Things. Will. Change.
7. Points are now known as Tokens, because points was confusing! Nothing else about them has been changed on the test site.
Please, get on there, have a click around, maybe try and use it as your 'main' way to access DarcyF1 and see how it goes.
Last, but not least. Members browsing the test site have a chance of find new, rare collector cards exclusive to the test site. There's plenty of them to be found! But I wouldn't recommend trading them just yet as users browsing the current site won't be able to see them!
As always, comments, questions, concerns are very welcome. Feedback has and will continue to power DarcyF1!

Critical fix to the Forums was pushed last night, so they are available for public testing now.
Some changes will actually be reflected on the main site too - unavoidable.

RSS buttons have been added to browsing pages.

User collections are now available. Note that collections are now private by default. Users can choose to make their collection public and it will be listed on the User Collections page.
The ability to remove videos from collections, as well as re-order them is yet to come.

Users can now add videos to their Watch Later collection, an existing collection and a new collection from the video download page.

Note: A private collection will be still be visible on regular DarcyF1, as there is no functionality there to differentiate between public and private collections.

Has anybody found a collector card on the new site ? Still no luck here..
admin 8 years
A collector card? Dozens have dropped via the new site!

Both Forum replies and Forum edits have been rewritten to squash the inability to post twice on the same page bug. Both bugs are gone, but retesting is required.
I understand there is a formatting issue with code when the post is reflected back into the page, but this is cosmetic only.

We will attempt to transition to the new site this weekend! Check out our twitter @darcyf1 for updates

In preparation for the transition, the test site is not available for testing until further notice.

how do i post without replying to an existing post? i see no button for that.. also need to make unread PM's stand out more than the thin orange line i think..
admin 8 years
@Nubbin you can use the reply button on the original post to reply to the thread. I am going to replicate to the bottom of the thread following feedback. And additionally add reply buttons to nested replies which was an oversight.

I'll look into enhancing unread PMs.
admin 8 years
@Nubbin Unread Messages are now displayed in an orange background.
All forum posts have a reply button that will continue the nested thread.
Each thread has a reply button at the bottom of the page.

I can't edit the names of my uploads, the filename contains tags that I like to remove but it reverts to the filename after each edit..

@admin
I was on the fence with the new site first, but I'm really liking it now. However, When searching for stuff, I can't uncheck any options I picked. Is this a glitch or will it be added later?
admin 8 years
Could you please give me an example of which options you can't uncheck, so that I can attempt to replicate it.

Things like race category, video type, etc.
