Thread: New Features!

Usergroup Legend

Often new users are confused by the various colors of usernames on the online users list. So we introduced a simple but helpful usergroup legend to end the confusion.

Users Online Today

New forum statistics have been added to visualize the amount of users online during the day.

Live Posts

As it was discussed here, there has been a strong users' wish for an option to retrieve new posts automatically without refreshing DV manually. I promised to take it on the vb4 todo list and here it is!

Just click on the "What's New" button in the navigation bar and then on "Watch Live Posts!":




The Live Posts page will retrieve all new posts on DV automatically without manual refreshing. You can also choose to just retrieve new posts from your subscribed threads and you can manually press pause/continue:



I'm sure you will enjoy this new feature!

As discussed here, images are now automatically being resized to a max width of 800px to not break the forum design. By clicking on the pic you get to see the original size.

Example:

It has been requested many times and now we finally have it: an LD Count profile field! Now you can keep there your updated number of lucid dreams on count.

The LD Count can be seen in your profile and in your postbit info:

Profile:



Postbit:



To edit this field, go to "My Profile" -> "About Me" -> Click on the yellow pen right next to "LD Count" and enter your value.

Not really a new feature but now it's finally back!

When making a new thread, you will automatically be shown if there are already similar threads like that.

Example:


Enjoy!

To emphasize your Dream Journals even more, we just set up a Dream Journal widget showing recent DJ entries in the forum sidebar:



I hope you enjoy.
