As you may or may not have noticed, Hydrogenaudio is now hosted on a new server. There might be some minor issues due to that, but we'll resolve them during the next few days.

Dibrom hasn't been able to spend much time working on HA recently. As a result, there are some changes in the administration of the site. I've been asked to take over most of the admin work for the time being.

There are two other changes that you definitely should have noticed: 1) We returned to the original portal, and 2) no more ads.  We will keep you updated about further changes.

Regards, the Hydrogenaudio Team

Nice to see the original portal again.

Two features I miss at the moment:
1) forum/subforum display for each entry in "Acitve Topics", as seen in "Your topics".
2) "Acitve Topics" in the foobar2000 subforum.


No hurry, just mentioning it.

Edit: Grayed out as they no longer apply.

This had me pleasantly surprised!

Personally I'm missing the fast reply button. Sometimes I found it quite handy to just give a short answer (like this one ). But take your time!
edit: fast reply was there all along.

Nothing changed here, it was disabled in validated news before as well.

Ah, yes, I was surprised to see it when I browsed the forum and was about to correct my post. So much the better!

Ouch! I may be blind (and very often I've been proved of it), but I don't see any content in the Wiki's "Main Page", but a link to the old wiki content mantained at rarewares.org (which is a blessing to have, btw).

Hold on.... just checked in another window: there is content, even new one, and I can get to it through the "Recent changes" navigation link, but... still not an index page like the one I can get at rarewares.org  Where is it supposed to be??

You are right: I need to make a link to the index page at the navigation box or content list should be moved to the main page.

The index page can be found here: http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Topic_Index

Well, I'm not blind this time! 

IMO, a link to the index page at the navigation box would be better, leaving room at the Main page for announcements or other volatile content.

I was on my bi-weekly run past the active topics and noticed that the front page was different. Mohh. It's very nice to see the old portal back.

Any chance the spacing will be modified on the front page to condese things more in active topics & add room for maybe the last 15/20 active posts, given how active this site is.  All in all a breath of fresh air.  Soooooo good to have this portal back! So, Thanks!  :  :

I miss the more link on the active topics menu. I also noticed that the last post info for the CD Hardware/Software forum is inaccurate.

Google search page links to lowfi versions of HA threads are broken...Is that something new?

Maybe it's a space issue, but I miss "read/unread" (aka "New/No New") markers to the left of each entry, in the portal's "Active Topics" list.

Minor bug I noticed:
If I minimize then maximize the "Navigation" box to the left of "Active Topics" at the portal, it leaves a "large" gap between itself and "Recommended Sites". This happens with Firefox 1.0 but not with Opera 7.54 or IE 6.0. Possibly related to my Firefox settings/extensions. The bug can be corrected by toggling the "Recommended Sites" box.

Good work!

The latter should be fixed now. Please post if it happens again.

Edit: I added a More link. I personally don't really like the aesthetics though, moreso because "Active Topics" has the same functionality.

Would it be too much trouble to ask for a list of people who are the admins/mods now so if we have any issues we can raise it directly and privately with them? Or is there an option to show them in the members list?

EDIT: Nevermind found it... for those that don't know just click Members and scroll down to the bottom and select what group you wish to view. Simple as that...
