Features!

Posted by Michael Dale on Mon, 07 Feb 2005 10:57 PM

Yay! We all like features. Anyway I've got around to adding another feature to this website. It is in the form of a, er contact form! Yes!

I know, I know. I had one of these BEFORE. But this one is different! Really it is!

If you post a comment below and leave ticked "Allow contact form email" people can send you email via the contact form. This could be useful for blogs where someone wants to get in contact with someone else who has posted but doesn't know them.

Please note your email address is NEVER shown (everything is done via the contact form) and if you wish not to have this feature just untick the box when you comment.

The comment form also goes through my spam block system that stops mass email floods and almost all bots. You don't need to worry about that.

Anyway the option is there from now on.

That's interesting, because most blogs ask for an email address, but they don't show it on the page (which is understandable). But, with this feature, you allow the emailing to happen, still without showing it.

Very nice.

Hey, your site looks better in opera than it does in firefox...

Also that thing that highlights your comments as a registered user does not work properly. It only seems to highlight the first comment you make in each topic. Somebody probably already pointed that out right :-)

I couldn't work out where I should post this so I figured that the first topic would do.

Also if you uncheck the "Allow contact form email" without entering an email it has a hernia.

Thanks for the feed back people, I'll have a look at those problems now.

Also Max the highlight function isn't really working/finished yet. I'll get around to that at some stage ;)

EDIT: I cannot seem to find any problems, everything looks to be working fine. If you get an error please take a screen shot and email it to me. Thanks :)

Sounds cool. Now all you need to do is get someone with even a vague sense of style to completely redo THIS site's frontend and it will be all good. ;)
