"Message boards" is the only option available for me on the User Forum, on both Windows & Mac systems. Anyone else with this problem?

This is all part of the upgrade of Oxford Uni's IT system. When finished all pages will be https making the site more secure. If you click on the, main page link at the bottom of this page, you will find the other options there.

Text is either too big or too small. There's no visible difference anymore between visited and unvisited links because the colours are manipulated. There's no reason to do this. It makes the site unusable.

To quote a small part of one post of an ongoing thread on the BOINC message board:
It's called Bootstrap, a new CMS for the forum front end.

In the discussion, some of it heated, mention is made of the sizes, the worst being when "quote" is used.
It's a long thread in The Lounge, and starts in the middle of page 2.

Apparently it can be customised, but that may take a while, as the whole site needs to settle down.

I'm not sure about the "visited and unvisited links".
When I look at the board, the new/unviewed posts still have a yellow marker in the top left corner.
Perhaps one needs to be logged in to the new site to see this?

Over the past weekend, every time that I looked at the message board, I'd been logged out. I found that the only way to get back in was to use the account key.
So now I'm not sure where I am, although the account url seems to be the old one.

It's about links in the task list.

Over the past weekend, every time that I looked at the message board, I'd been logged out.

Edit:
opps my mistake, it says I am logged in,
there is a button, in the upper right
corner of the web page that says,
I can log out.

Hi Alex

Found it.
Reported.

Thank you!

This has now been fixed.

When a link is selected, it turns red to show that it's been read.
It/they will stay red until all threads are marked as read on the front page.
Except for the first link on the front page which will stay red until the cache is cleared.

It's not about the forum, it's about the list of workunits. Nothing has changed there.

When I click on a link in the task list and go to that task page, the next time I see the list it has that link colored red as Les said it should.

Yes, there's a problem if you use the List of tasks to go directly to the WorkIDs, but if you go to something in the Tasks list, then it's working.
And once on the task page for a model, if the click the link for WorkID, then it does go red.

And the WorkIDs pages aren't of much use. It's the model page that gives the info that's needed to find problems.

I tried another browser and now I see the difference. For some reason Firefox doesn't show different colours.

Andy used Chrome to set this up.
I'm using Firefox 50.0.2, and that works.

So I don't know where this leaves us.

Anyone else?

It worked fine on Firefox 50.x for me.

It works on Firefox 50.0, Ubuntu 14.04 (cpdn.org) logged in
Did not work on (no color change) on Chrome 54.0.2840.71, win7 on both cpdn.org (logged and not logged in) and climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk (logged in)

For what its worth it works on FF53, Chromium53 Konqueror and whichever version of Chrome I have here.

Visited links are shown in red now in Firefox, though I didn't change settings.
All credits are pending. It looks like the software cannot handle a minimum quorum of 1.

There's no visible difference anymore between visited and unvisited links because the colours are manipulated.

Same problem again.

When I look at a thread or post, it goes red.
