Hi! As you may have noticed, the Exiles forum has had a facelift recently. The goal of this update is to reduce clutter on the Exiles forum frontpage and open specific sections for each platform to make things easier to track and report.
The revamp is not 100% complete as of this writing (we still need to migrate some topics to their new, appropriate sections), but it’s mostly done.
I’m loving the changes so far, especially the subforums dedicated to bugs
I do have one minor complaint and one question. The complaint is about the breadcrumbs on top, i.e. these:
Those used to include “Conan Exiles”, so I could click on that and see all the latest Conan Exiles topics. After the changes, some topics have it and others have not. For example, this one doesn’t. Can we make sure all topics have it?
EDIT: I figured it out. The breadcrumbs get collapsed when I scroll down. It would be nicer if they didn’t but I can live with pressing Home before clicking.
The question is about the “Servers and Recruitment” category. It says it will be “retired soon”. Will the bookmarks for posts in that section still work once it’s retired? To clarify, I don’t mean browser bookmarks, but the ones implemented by the forum software.
Your bookmarks should be fine? That’s a good question actually. If you’re saving threads by the actual topic URL then you’re fine, as the actual URL of each topic will not change.
Oh my bad, yeah, the actual bookmarking feature of the forums
Yeah, the actual URL of the thread won’t change, so you should be able to access the topic anyway. We’ll do our best to recategorize as many of the existing Server/Clan threads as possible, and we won’t delete the category, it’ll just be delisted.
Any specific threads that we miss that need to be moved can always be done so individually if someone lets us know.
I appreciate the (perhaps slightly cynical) banter personally, but yeah, should probably keep this thread on-topic moving forward. If you notice any issues, formatting bugs, or oversights, or if anything else jumps out at you, let me know. Thanks
On an unrelated note, I noticed that the profanity filter has been ever-so-slightly relaxed. If you did that on purpose, @AndyB, then you have my eternal, undying gratitude
