New Website Feedback

@terabyte
This is happening to me as well. I'm using Firefox on Win10 with 1366x768. -
@Terabyte Is this still happening for the last entry now that it has changed to Altina?
-
@chocolatkey I'm outside so I can't check on the desktop but looking at it on my android smartphone (Chrome browser) I see it's still broken. Only potions entry still looks like in my screenshot above. The others are all good, even the new ones showing after it.
-
@chocolatkey It's that thing again where it fails to apply styles on loading but works properly when navigating.
It's not even browser-specific — it does the same thing on iOS as well as on Chrome, FF and Safari on mac.
edit: apparently it can get weirder if you're lucky enough.
edit 2: also, there's to many minutes
-
@_08 Thanks for catching that typo, it's been fixed. As soon as I manage to reproduce the issue on my end, it will be fixed.

You probably need to change system's time for that if it's set to western hemisphere since it results from differences between prerender's and client's clock.
-
@_08 It was supposed to render that part on the client side, but you may be on to something... I'll check in the morning

The new website actually makes the reader useable on a iPad, while not perfect still a lot better then the app.
For example if you tap to see the tool bar there no way of actually hiding it apart from going to the next/previous page.
It still not as good as https://crimson-jnc-reader.appspot.com/home which had a page number at the bottom and better margins (at the bottom) which effects the full screen mode the most but I am using it now.
-
Incredibly minor bug:
While website itself remembers dark mode through a refresh, the dark mode switch apparently doesn't.Fortunately, it still works correctly, but it looks rather weird.
-
With all the new releases today the RSS feed doesn't even show all of them since it is limited to only 15 events and there's 24 new events all at the same time... 😅
-
@terabyte maybe the code for the RSS feed should restrict it by a time period (perhaps a week?) instead of the number of items?

My Big Sister Lives in a Fantasy World
I purchased books 1 and 2, but my library is showing books 2 and 4. When I go to My Big Sister Lives in a Fantasy World series is shows I own books 1 and 3.
-
Just posting a reminder that the Has Print filter is still woefully incomplete.
-
I'm also having the coming soon design break like others have reported earlier. I'm using Edge 89.0.774.63 on Windows 10. I'm keeping it windowed on a portion of the screen, but even if I go fullscreen (screen res: 2560x1440) with F11 it still breaks like that.
-
Just had the same "Coming Soon" alignment issue occur on Chrome. Looking in the DevTools, it looks like the div for the affected row is missing the
flex-direction: rowstyle property when compared to all the other entries, and has instead picked up the generated class name from the date div (Monday, April 5th). Its parent is also missing the margin style.Hope that helps narrow the issue down. Loving the new desktop site so far!
-
For what it's worth, I noticed that if I click on the series, calendar, or user tab, and then click back on home, the alignment gets corrected. However, simply refreshing the home after that will break it again. Not sure if this info will help in any way, but I thought it might be worth to point it out.
-
On the old site, the Coming Soon list had a RSS feed associated with it, but on the new site, it is now gone.
Was it moved? I couldn't find it on the calendar page.
Thanks!

The new home sidebar looks pretty bad, IMO.
You have this whole design consisting of filmstrips, and you slap a sidebar next to all of it?
Why not just add an additional strip? It would look a lot less busy-design wise.
Too many entries? Well how about focusing on delivering more precise and relevant information to the user? A reason many liked the old sidebar is because it provided part release information on the homepage, and that's you could have focused a strip on. How about latest released parts? And if the user is logged in and following series, latest released parts for the series the user follows?
As an unfiltered show-all, the sidebar is literally just a worse version of the full calendar page, so it'd make sense to provide something more focused - and in this case it could be focused on recently released stuff that's already out, as the calendar is better serving the purpose of what's coming up, so link to that for that.
Also, why is the "latest titles" strip limited to just five entries again? It used to show all new licenses. I know there was the issue at one point where it got to less than five titles and the thumbnails got huge, but the solution to that shouldn't be setting the amount of titles shown to a fixed amount but rather just enforcing a max height or something. Or just set it to a five title minimum but don't cap the maximum.

Reader
The reader interface normally hides the browser's vertical scroll bar when the mouse cursor is hovering over the window. This does not work when Windows 10 is in tablet mode. This results in a few quirks with Microsoft Edge (and possibly other browsers):
- The browser's scroll bar is always rendered. This is rather distracting when using the Black or Gray themes.
- "Left-to-right" reading mode: Swiping upward scrolls the webpage down and away from the reader, showing the page footer. (minor nuisance)
- ""Scroll down" reading mode: Swiping upward scrolls the reader text normally until reaching the end of the current document, after which the webpage scrolls away from the reader to show the page footer. Swiping downward (to go back to earlier text) scrolls the reader but leaves the footer displayed. The footer remains visible until the user taps the scroll bar and drags the interface upward again, or until the user swipes all the way back to the top of the document.
Despite being only cosmetic, the first bullet is the biggest nuisance for me as a user. The Black theme is very attractive, but the permanently illuminated browser scroll bar is distracting to the reading experience on a full screen tablet.
I personally don't find the links in the page footer (Links/Information/Account) valuable enough to warrant the technical complications it imposes on the reader interface, and the Home/Series/Calendar/Forums/User buttons are the only ones I would use for navigating away from the reader. If you can figure out a workaround that keeps the footer while avoiding the browser scroll bar issues I would be happy with that too.

Bug Report:
Chrome on Windows PC
When navigating the the calendar, after refreshing the page, formatting breaks at a couple of points in the month of April. It appears to break after entries for part releases 8 and 10 of "Welcome to Japan, Ms. Elf!", which has me suspicious it could be related to some of the punctuation in that title. Though the page doesn't seem to break at the part 9 release. The issue also doesn't seem to happen if "part releases only" is selected as a filter; so it may be an interaction with ebook release entries.
The way the formatting breaks seems to be that date label and all entries merge into the same row (I can see the date and one entry of a release; it seems like the other releases for that date might be off-screen to the right). Also not sure why the formatting issue only happens on refreshing the calendar.
