    What do you think about the new design for AkaQA?

    Hi guys,

    Just to answer a few of your questions and let you know of a few things on our roadmap.

    First - the reason we left the old AkaQA available was for you to get a chance to get used to the new version, and for us to hear your opinion and suggestions for it.

    The new site can also be used on your mobile phones, so you can now access AkaQA anytime, anywhere.

    Regarding a bigger change - we are still working on new features, but like I said - we wanted to get your opinion on what have and try to make the transition to the new design as easy as possible for you.

    So, if you have any ideas for new features, or things you like/dislike on AkaQA (new or old), this is the place to let us know, or you can email us using the contact page if you prefer.
    Thank you!
    The AkaQA Team

    Hi *Meerat*! Thanks for pointing this out. This is the first time I've seen this (with all these details) and by the sound of it, others also missed it. While you are making adjustments, please fix my duck. Since you put my "Mod tag" back, it has gone missing but only when I "comment". See? :)
    Note: You posted the question and then THREE DAYS LATER, you added the pertinent information. That makes a difference.

    Cleaner, sharper and easier to read. Now, new questions will be coming from where? When?

    OK so I found my notifications.So....How come the old format is still available??

    They won't be getting any new business until they put that green button that says akaQA at the top of welcome pages of internet servers, such as aol, Yahoo, etc.

    For "some" who may still be confused....they can just click back and use the old format until they get used to the new one, I'm guessing.
    mycatsmom

    I clicked back and nothing happened

    I haven't noticed anything except for the lack of new questions.

    Agree totally!

    There is a button on the left side of the screen to go back to the old format. I tried the new one last night and it would not allow me to answer new questions without a 404 coming up each time so I'm using the old format today.

    Where you able to log in? I can not get logged in on the new version. It tells me my password is wrong (it isn't) and when I try to get a password reset link sent to my e-mail, it doesn't ever arrive, not even to my spam mail.

    Colleen,I haven't tried logging in on the new version, I was on the original and I got a flash up I mean pop up to say try the new design yes/no. So I gave it a yes, and got on the new design fine, I just could not get my tu's and comments. Otherwise it seemed ok, but I clicked back to the original when it gave me the option.

    Information about what?
    I see nothing new, not a lot of info there.

    Moderator
    His TUs and stuff.
    ROMOS

    TUs seem redundant on the new design,no information about anything else,why still have "top contributors"?
    Colleen

    Can't answer that. I thought we were getting a whole new forum, not just a tweaking of the old one.
    ROMOS

    Happy 2m to you.
    ;)

    Other than the size of the text, I see little difference. The design is the same. I like the old way simply because the text is larger and easier to read.

    I have logged in with the new design, but can only see my tu's through my profile and click karma history. With the old design it all came up automatically when I clicked on unanswered . Unless I'm doing something wrong.

    If you are looking for the notifications, it's the same red circle but it is now attached to the big akaQA button on the left.
    sunnyB

    Ok thanks Colleen.
    sunnyB

    Yes I get it now, managed to find everything where you said, thanks.

    It's not bad, but the major thing that is missing is the column that comes up that tells you on what answers  of yours, who  voted it up

    I LOVE IT !


    It is sure to attract a brobdingnagian wave of perspicacious visitors.

    Tommyh

    Yes wouldn't that be simply spiffy.

    Having read all the comments,i thank you for the heads up,and i will stick with what we have,i do not see the sense in changing to something that is not much different to what we have..change for change sake is a stupid mindset.....so stupid mindset should get another opinion,,hey ,here is an idea,why does mindset not ask the people who use AKA ..US,US,US,,Naaaaaaaaaaa that would be stupid would it not..???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
