New Website Feedback
-
@tube On the calendar page of the new website, you can display just the entries related to the series you have marked as Followed: By using the "Followed series only" toggle. You can also set that option as the default for when you browse that page again.

@jhkghl678690iop Yeah I know, and chocolatkey said that something similar is coming to the front page too, so that's awesome.

Your library will now show you when new versions of premium ebooks are available for download!
Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

@myskaros
Will this work on volumes I downloaded long ago? -
@bartzbb We were not tracking when the last time someone downloaded a volume was until today, so it will only apply to new versions that are available after today.
-
@myskaros
That's unfortunate. Thanks for the clarification. -
@bartzbb To further clarify, if we were to update an ebook later today that is in your library, you would see it with an "Updated!" tag like in the above screenshot.

A few small issues I noticed on dark themes:
The texts in chat menu do not show without hovering over them.
There's no indication what this button does.
The post headers on user's profile could do with more contrast.Also there's still the previously reported issue that
codehas a rather high contrast on dark themes which makes it jump on eyes and hard to read. -
The new site is still having trouble applying the correct CSS(?) when opening pages in new tabs. For example:
- Homepage => Left click on CALENDAR so it opens in the same page => All good.
- Homepage => Central click on CALENDAR so it opens in a new tab => The page looks all messed up. (Clicking on any page and then clicking back on CALENDAR, while still remaining in the same tab, fixes it.)

This morning the new-view website is missing all content besides "coming soon" and the old site can't load the content either.
Hard refresh doesn't do anything.

Hello,
There seems to be some maintenance being done by the company that hosts the J-Novel Club website.
Everyone's patience is appreciated until this can be resolved.
Thank you

Where do you find the Japanese titles? I saw there's the extra details tab on the top right of a series page, but I might have missed it.
-
On any series page look to the top left of the screen, it is located above the English title.
On mobile it is on the series page below the English title.
-
The calendar page is still extremely finicky. A lot of times when I go to it, it seems to pull mangled metadata about the ongoing series and then completely bork when trying to render the list. Anyone else getting that?
-
@zwabbit If you can grab a screenshot next time you see this and also provide your OS/browser, that would help us look into this issue!

The "Our Latest Digital Releases" section on the front page on mobile, hitting the right-arrow button to slide the list right once works fine. Hitting it a second time goes back to the beginning (instantly, not a visible scrolling motion) instead of scrolling further right. I know there's more to the right because I can drag the books to the left and have more show up on the right when I do it. Eventually when I get to the end dragging it, the arrow on the right turns to a double arrow pointing left, which works as designed and goes back to the beginning (with a rapid scroll).
The "Our Latest Titles" section actually does the same thing, so it's common to that widget it looks like

@myskaros The updated books feature is a great new feature. It does leave to some rendering issues on mobile though.
Because of the lack of space, maybe the "updated" tag should be removed inside the series tab on mobile and only list the updated books on the top? Additionally you could maybe recolour the "download" button green to indicate the book that has been updated to give the same amount of information on mobile as on desktop but in less space?

This is a bug with the reader on both the old site and the new site present at least on mobile (android) chrome. The margins shift (left-to-right) as the part progresses. On the old reader with the thinner margins, this can result in text getting cut off at the right edge of the screen; but even if the new readers wider margins typically prevent text from getting cut off, the shift still happens (and adjustable/thinner margins is a quality improvement already on the known issues list).
The margin/text shift seems to be in proportion to number of pages (rather than merely %), as it only ever shifts far enough to cut off text on longer parts.
