Thanks for the hint. If your browser or feed reader has autodiscovery, it will still detect individual feeds for each section. But unlike before - and this we will "fix" as well - these feeds don't include sub-forums right now. We will also bring back a single page showing all available feeds.

Let's see...

That would give an other dimension of browsing that is quicker than scrolling.
The hybrid mode is kinda tricky. Currently, when you click on a post within a thread in hybrid mode, the currently selected post plus posts that are direct replies are shown at the bottom of the page. Example:

a
\
b
|
c
|
d
\
e
|
f

When you click on a, all posts will be shown. If you click on b, only b will be shown. If you click on c, only c will be shown. If you click on d, d and e will be shown -- meaning d and someone's reply to d (=e). If you click on e or f, again only e or f are shown. You can test it with this thread. Your suggestion sounds great, but I am not sure if it can be implemented at the moment. But I will keep an eye on it!

The blue menu bar could follow you everywhere you go and stay just at the top of your screen or one button called 'Top' could do the same and follow you. Once you click on it, it brings you to the blue menu bar at the top.
That would involve some javascript/xhtml coding. Not really my expertise, but if someone is willing to help out...

Thanks for all the hard work, Alex!

Another suggestion: On the frontpage, where the latest attachments are listed, could you exclude e-book uploads, and perhaps make another news section dedicated to latest e-book uploads?

That would be easily possible. Give us a few days

It also seems that there was a temporary issue with the front page RSS feed, which also included some non-front page posts during the Sunday, but that now seems to be fixed.

Exactly, this issue has been discovered and fixed earlier, thanks for reporting though Also, when you subscribe to a subforum, the feed will now also include the subforum's children forums again.

Thanks Adam for the report. The PHP function getimagesize() always returns false with our new PHP installation. I am looking into this.

Hi Liviux, yes, it'll be back. Please give me a couple of days. I'll be putting the script on another server.

When I view MobileRead's feed in bloglines, the images attached to the posts are not showing up. Instead I'm seeing the path of the image. Something like this:

I had added MobileRead to my subscriptions just shortly before this migration, so my memory may be misleading me.

Could we get a menu bar at the bottom of the page with the "User CP" etc on it? I find myself scrolling back to the top a lot as I read through new posts.

While I'm on the subject of the menu bar, I'm wondering why the E-Books link is the second item there, when it only has books for Sony?

I think Alex was looking ahead to when folks have created and uploaded books for other formats/devices too.

That's mainly why I was suggesting a menu bar that could follow your movements through the page or just a button.
Maybe there could be a simple 'Up' button on every post next to the 'Karma' or 'Quote' ones ?

Good point: If I decided to convert Metropolis to other formats besides LRF (like for eReader, iSilo, MobiPocket, and MS Reader), where would I put them, guys?
