Site Improvement Suggestions 14:33 - Jul 27 with 4982 views | TacticalR | It was mentioned a while ago that the site was going to be improved at some point. Here are some suggestions: 1. Add year to threads and posts so you've got a clue when something was posted. 2. Add ability to link to individual posts in other threads (at the moment you can only link to the beginning of another thread). 3. Add support for linking to a particular time in a Youtube video. This would be handy for longer music and football videos. 4. Add support for linking to other video providers e.g. Vimeo. 5. Fix the LFW Windows 10 Chrome bookmarks bug. No icon when creating a bookmark for LFW in browsers in Windows 10 by TacticalR 15 May 2016 21:42On my laptop when I create a bookmark for any page in LFW in Windows 10, then the LFW icon isn't shown, just the default blank icon for the browser. I use Chrome but I can see the same behaviour in other browsers (Firefox and Microsoft Edge). LFW is the only site I see with this problem, all the other bookmarks show their correct individual site logos.
Versions:
Windows 10: Version 1511 (OS Build 10586.0)
Chrome: 50.0.2661.102 m
Firefox: 46.0.1
Microsoft Edge: 25.10586.0.0 | |

Site Improvement Suggestions on 15:07 - Jul 27 with 3435 views | isawqpratwcity | Good suggestions, especially 1, 2 and 5. Currently using Firefox for LFW because Chrome (with W10) was giving me secured LFW pages that were completely blank. | |

Yeah this has been an issue for years now, really annoying! Only seems to happen in Chrome, not Firefox. But Firefox renders stuff in a way that makes all the text very small. | | | |

you can do bold and italic now. Agree that editing quoted text would make long threads much easier to read. | | | |

Am I the only one that doesn't want to edit posts? It's not like you have to type them out yourself. You can always cut the bits you want to refer to and paste them into your reply inside quotation marks. Perhaps if we just kept our posts short? | |

You can (usually) remedy that by rotating your device to landscape mode and refreshing. Though that's annoying to do in itself! | | | |

Not very user friendly though. Ditto with editing, you can do it but it's a pain. | | | |

Don't frighten us Clive! Is if possible to make it easier to post videos/pictures etc? It's such a faff atm going by the instructions, so I don't bother. | | | |

Always easier when there is actual football happening. As it is, the site may need a rebrand as Loft For Assorted Ideas. Where is Geoff Cameron when we need him? Surely when he played midcentrefieldsman for the Ocelot Spungoes, he was able to cure corona virus simply by giving it a hard stare? | |

Well atm the arse has fallen out of the advertising completely overnight and people are paying for things out of their own pockets so, like I say, I think tech developments and improvements are someway down the list atm. Does it function, does it still exist - that's basically what we're going for for the forseeable. | | | |

If the site is struggling to support itself, you may need to ask for donations. There are probably enough of us still getting a salary to be able to donate to keep the site going until advertising picks up again. | | | |
