[Feedback] ThinkDigit.com Web site

[g_goyal2000]

and guess what...................they haven't updated their website still

its 3rd of nov

they are lazy 4 sure
Totally agree man! and the guy at digit are not alone in this lazyness competetion, the chaps at Chip are a bit more lazy. Don't beleive me? Check out there web site chip-india.com

Atleast chip-india.com is filled with links & other stuff.
thinkdigit.com is lame as a lama.
The site is nothing but a page with few useless links.
Even I could have done better than that.
I know...

I just designed 2 sites - one for my semester project & the other for my assignment. And they both contained more links than thinkdigit.com & were more attractive.

[1]

I think that guest posting should be allowed in certain channels of the bulletin boards.
Also,I think that in any message,signatures are needed more than :roll: `Avatars` :roll:
So I guess disabling signatures is not as useful as is disabling `Avatars`. :)

Why waste time giving your valuable suggestions to DIGIT .. when they have vowed not to fulfuil them

[Captain Crime]

Why waste time giving your valuable suggestions to DIGIT .. when they have vowed not to fulfuil them

right

did they done any "good" changes in their website

the thread is running frm months

[sujithtom]

and only we readers are reading this thread i think. No digit representatives have read it or replied till now...

[visualreactor]

Why not actually make something instead of ask the forum members what to make ? That way we can offer our views. This thread has been going on for a long time and I have my doubts wether the Digit team is serious about any if not all of the suggestions given here. I think instead of all this nonsense you'll [ the DIGIT team ] should just make a straightforward, clean, site and leave room for expanding the site. And don't say the present thinkdigit.com is CLEAN. The layout is just done rashly and the colours are ugly in my humble opinion.

[sujithtom]

hmmm atleast they fixed the menu

[JGuru]

The website www.thinkdigit.com loads very slowly even
on broadband!! I think it's time to upgrade the Server.
The 'search' option does not give accurate results.
The latest hardware prices listing would also be very
helpful. How about using some eye-candy cool icons?
Overall the website needs some more improvements.
I think you guys have the potential & the resources
to create India's best website.

I agree with JGuru completely.. i'm on a 512+ connection and Digit's site is slow as snail. Its really time to upgrade the server.

[QwertyManiac]

I think thier software is fked up or something... sometimes while blowsing even when digit isnt down, I get a critical error and on refresh it goes away... :?

[Darthvader]

Hey How come the site never loads in the afternoons
I mean The main site does but the forum does not seem to load at all
And i sometimes get a pHP BB could not connect error
BTW i am on 512 kbps bband

I agree.
And the site sometime comes down for a whole day.
I mean whether I try in morning, afternoon, evening, night, it's always down. What's the problem??
Are they trying to upgrade to the new phpBB v2 ??

[djmykey]

Ok now the site is off da hook. Its nice to see this after what had gone thru with the members and the mods. Wow, man u really pulled it off this time. Could u do a favour for me change the color scheme pls. (Red is bad 4 me)

[Vishal Gupta]

First congratulations to all members/mods/admins for the new Board :)
Its really looking nice but Very slow :(
All sites r opening very fast here but not this forum...

One suggestion also!
The Quick Reply is activated once we click on the "Quick Reply" button in any post. This is very irritating! The Quick Reply option should be activated by default, members should not be forced to click on the quick reply button to activate it!

The "click for quick reply" thing is so that you can:
1. Quote the message you're replying to, and
2. Get an RE: Subject line so that you know which post you're replying to even if you don't quote it.

We like the idea, but will consider changing it if too many people cry about it.

[gary4gar]

1) Please use diffrent color rather than red.it looks cheap ! !
2) Reduce Page size to save brandwith of bb users & time of dial-up users

[ashu888ashu888]

First of all,

A Hearty Congratulations to the Digit Team for a new and improved look of the Digit Forums.

I would like to add that the Links and content (newly added) are a treat to see but regarding the colour that is being used for the Forum is a bit bright, rich and strain to the eyes. Please try to reduce the brightness of the color used.

The relaunch of the siggy section (signatures) in the posts are a welcome treat, but please make sure that users do not advertise and/or post images/flash icons/links in their siggies. It will spoil the look of each thread and will often distract the users from the original topic and there is no continuity in the threads. Siggies look good only with the text which adds a tinge of humour and defines a unique identity to every user.

Overall, the forum is really promising. Happy posting in the Forums. :)

Cheers n e-peace.....

[sakumar79]

As Vishal pointed out, requiring quick reply to click first on a post slightly defeats the purpose of a quick reply... Perhaps the quick reply button on each post can be changed to "Quote in Quick Reply" - ie, the quick reply form will be available directly for editing, and by clicking the Quote in Quick Reply button, one can automatically add the quote code in the post...

Secondly, I too feel that the color is too bright... The previous forum layout with bluish tones is much more easier on the eye...

Thirdly, out of curiosity, what is the status of reinstating the old mods and admins? Any talks going on within team digit and also between the mods and team digit?...

Other than that, I think things look good so far... Wishing team digit good luck with the new forum interface....

Arun

[gary4gar]

thanx to roobo for color change
it a lot more better ! !

[navneeth_snr]

Cool Wow, New Digit Improved Forum

Its good to see the forum has some changes. But what is mean by Rep Power?

[ashu888ashu888]

@ Raboo

Thanx for the soothing Aqua color bro :) its much more pleasant to browse the forum...


Cheers n e-peace....

[it_waaznt_me]

Wow ..!! Nice to see Digit forums back .. Its responding so slow here :( ..

[hsnayvid]

Well
finally got a new look.

I'll take some time before I get hang of this new look.

BTW I can't get Quick Reply to work.

[digitized]

hey the new forum is absolutely rocking yaar. Cool interface...:cool: :cool: . Anyway, congratulations to the new administrators and moderators. And the site loads fast too, and there are a lot of new features. Now that's what I call a forum of a leading technological magazine in India.

[blackpearl]

First of all, congrats to Digit for the new forum.

But..... why vBulletin yaar?? It consumes more bandwidth. I will run out of my BW before the month is half over. I prefer PHPBB :(

[nithinks]

User interface looks good than ever! the site is also fast compared to before

[gary4gar]

hey guys from on..
there is no need to click quick reply to ativate Quick reply but what about our avataars?

[cooljeba]

User interface looks good than ever! the site is also fast compared to before

after all it is vBulletin and costs bucks lol

A theme would surely make it look much better!!
..:: peace ::..
Jeba

[Ankur Gupta]

been waiting for this transformation for ages.
finally it has happened!
vBulletin is the way too go even if it consumes more bandwidth.
thanx for increasing the avtar size.
i suggest some more themes be introduced though this aqua colour is good.
BTW wat is rep power.well one thing i cud find tht it has nuthin to do wid post count.
and ya have the resident techie,digizited etc status tags been completely removed for senior members and junior members??

[kayote]

finally... u guys have done it again... now it looks really wonderful and the color is a blessing :-)
much faster more easier to user...... u guys have done your homework!

[rohitm_001]

The website needs to reflect the Digit magazine. It should have more content. At present we have only four sections. Plus the homepage must be updated and the format should be completely changed. You won't notice any change in website if you are seeing it even after a week.

The colour scheme needs to be more vibrant. The forum colour pattern can have a nicer shade of blue like the one used by Windows XP.

[ax3]

bring back THE OLD skin of forum ... NEW 1 SUCKS ...

[netgautam]

Try to publish more articles from previous issues specially those from Case Study.

[Vishal Gupta]

Disbling HTML code was understandable in the SIGNATURES but Why vBCodes hv been disabled in SIGNATURES? :(
Pls enable vBCode in signatures...

[vignesh]

Great !

add more themes...

Were is the memberlist dropdown box with stuff like arrange by date,posts etc ?

[abracadabra]

first of all the sites like yours lacks a professional touch seriously and having to place google adsense advertisement on a professsional magazines website is seriously wrong news that u r indirectly sending. another rhing is that as most forum sites on the internet follow a general rule of following the address like this ::: http://forums.websitename.com ::: (here in this case the website name is thinkdigit hence the complete address wuld b http://forums.thinkdigit.com

[KoRn]

hey guys i did post before if we could use our digit ids to recieve mail and send mail to y! and hotmail.

[ax3]

plz plz plz , can u create a link 2 "view my post" in nav. bar instead of us clicking on avatar & getting it ... same as V had in the old forums ...

[Raiden Bee]

Move the whole forum structure to IPB instead of vBulliten
Just look at IPB forums, they look awesome
And all the changes that have ever been mentioned will come automatically with IPB.
Or you could use phpBB.

vBuletin is fast but IPB is awesome

Here is the link to IPB
http://www.invisionboard.com/

Also here is the list of features
http://www.invisionpower.com/ip.dynamic/products/board/features.html

I also request all users to go to this site and see if it is better or not

[vignesh]

New colour theme....

And this one error I get most of the time

"The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 30 characters. "

[Darthvader]

Ya the Thirty character Roadblock shud Be certainly cleared
After all a smile can be worth a thousand words
ANd the theme is getting dull

[john_the_ultimate]

Well u guys could include a option in the DIGIT site (thinkdigit.com), where the subscriber could login check their account info, when their copy is being dispatched and also see the courier info who would be delivering the copy.
As u see, I am not getting the mail regarding the dispatch of my subscriber copy and everytime have to mail Digit for the info. I know that ur customer care is there but during holidays they are not available.
And moreover you will have direct contact with the subscriber and could improve ur service for better (like say if the courier service does not deliver the copy in time, a customer can inform u immediately).
Look into my request and see if its viable. Thanks.

[zero]

Couldn't find a link to request RSS feeds from ur site

Please take my suggestion to provide RSS feeds if not already provided.

[QwertyManiac]

I miss the "Unanswered threads" option in PHPBB. Anyways here is a mod/hack for vB (official...)

Yes, yes, we know. I'm hoping you took that survey - it'll be an important deciding factor for the massive overhaul Thinkdigit is going to go through.

[mohanty1942]

I don't know whether this is the right place to comment.

One small problem which needs to be attended. That is on Thinkdigit Forum's Search Page not giving proper result when multiple keywords are entered.

Previously it was good as there were options to select

(a) " Find posts that contain all the keywords" &
(b) "Find posts that contain any of the Keywords enterd"

But now these options are not there. Please correct me if I am unable to see these options.

[tuxfan]

At the first opportunity, remove ad-sense !! It looks pretty cheap on a site that should have corporate looks!! IMHO, in its current state, its derogatory!

Change the looks of the site!! It seems to have been done by someone at home with a computer! :| You have so many resources! Run a contest for a template in the magazine or forum and you will have hundreds of options before you! You also havea few in-house visualisers. Assign the task to someone and let him/her work on it for a week!

Oops.. I have edited my post

[Third Eye]

The digit website is a joke. Looks like a site made by a 10 year old.

lol,this site is good but it needs some improvement.

[kl_ravi]

I think even the no of columns used in a webpage also has a visual impact....

Presently I can see 4 columns being used. If it were 3 columns, It would have been ideal.

My monitor is set to 800 x 600 pixels resolution and still i have to scroll sideways. My suggestion is to make the page resize itself for different browser resolutions like 800 x 600 & 1024 x 768

Also I would like to comment on the "Previously published" box on the thinkdigit.com website ...

If i change my font size from medium to larger or medium to smallest, nothing seems to happen. The font used is also bold and not normal. Even this aspect might be looked into ...

[varun_ag]

Yes, yes, we know. I'm hoping you took that survey - it'll be an important deciding factor for the massive overhaul Thinkdigit is going to go through.

We have been hearing of this "MASSIVE OVERHAUL" for over 18 months now. God aonly knows when they would be able to complete their so called massive overhaul. Looks like they are following Vista Timeline and delays :)

[kl_ravi]

I have seen features like VB-Plaza & vBux ... And different kinds of points & rep systems .... Can digit try out few of these ...??

[Arsenal_Gunners]

[aryayush]

If the roll eyes smiley appears next to this sentence, the problem is solved. :roll:

Oops! Looks like it's missing.

[Aberforth]

The website could be jazzed up a little bit but I'd say the forum is perfect. The settings like 'Remember Me' on login page checked off by default, user email notifications on PM and thread subscription, off means I do not have to deal with junkloads of emails in my inbox daily. Some sites running on default installations of vBulletin 3.0.X +forget to take care of these small details which could have made life a lot easier for users. :)

[ax3]

anything wrong with POST COUNT ? even after some replies, its THE same ....

[Vishal Gupta]

bcoz it doesnt increase in some sections, like Chit Chat, Gamerz, etc. ;)

[QwertyManiac]

If you digit people havent already noticed things going haywire with your polls, better do. It allows multiple oppurtunities at just the hold of an enter key!

1.Your site have no news.
2.It lacks two important media 1.Vedio 2.Audio

>Audio can be used for old people who can't read.
3.It have a dull means of iteraction for the mag.

4.Site can be used to troubleshoot distinct problems which you guyz can't print in mag.

I think there should be more ways, which my friends can point out.
Thankyou.

[k4mik4z3]

Say, why isnt the subscription page updated ??? I was going to subscribe until I saw that the declaration "Offer is only valid until Dec 2006" !!

Subscribers could easily get cheated thinking that the offer is still valid and subscribe unless they have read all the fine print carefully !

Please update that asap. I want to know if there are any offers for subscribing now or not.

they specifically dont check this thread .

[rajasekharan]

@krrrish......;), :lol:

ok since i know that they dont check....here is what i think the improvements could be with my 4 long years of experience with the forums

1. the reputation system suc*s big time....a forum is meant for bringing people together ....not to differentiate them....want an example...look at "esato" (my first forum) ....any esato members backing me up ????? :)....(though i don't post there any more)...u can see that it behaves almost like another home like environment....just what this forum lacks
2. what about breaking up the s/w trouble shooting to multimedia,and windows tools question and answers..??
3.rename q&a to q&a for non s/w and hardware rather than providing lengthy explanation underneath.
4.mods please behave properly.....if you feel that some one is behaving badly PM them..rather than saying i have -ve repped u , stop saying blah blah blah , and so on in the post, learn from other sites....if you cant do that then stop being a MOD.
*****(stay away from fight club or delete that thread all together , rather than posting to behave properly there , u create some and expect people to behave like gentleman is not proper , let them fight, else rename to "casual chat club heavily observed by MODS".)

thats all for now....:), don't think about reading it if u are mild at heart...;)


p.s : those who repost the posting saying "moved to different section cause of wrong post"....please be sensible to answer that persons question , at least , sorry donno will do...that person expects an answer not a "moved " note. its perfectly fine who do the double posting under two sections....cause
1. they fail to understand the structure of this forum...indicates that u have work to do in site...:)
2. they are absolutely in need , in very bad need.

stop being cruel to them...also saying "problem reported blah blah blah..."

[avinandan]

The digit site is so cluttered with ads that it takes ages to load on my poor dial up connection. I am a digit subscriber since 2003 but i have visited the thinkdigit home page only twice or thrice. There is nothing interesting except the forum which i visit by directly typing thinkdigit.com/forum in my browser

[Siddharth Maheshwari]

Although ur site is very gud but we should have some online quiz and exams with ur certificate.

[47shailesh]

Today i found two Discrepancies in www.thinkdigit.com (http://www.thinkdigit.com)

1) IN the OPINION POLL i clicked 10-15 times and for each time my click was counted... I Know it's very hard to put constraint like blocking a IP or MAC after one click coz in situations where user access through cafes.. u can't block a IP or MAC after a click.. But to a minimal can be done is Introducing a TIME GAP between successive click say of 15 min to "minimise" the fake polls and getting more nearer to real world scenario....


2) In "Interactive Content" the pdfs were not uploaded properly i guess.. coz when i tried to access those pdf they said error while opening pdf.. not single time i tried it mainer time and the result was same

So please consider my suggestion...:)

The front page looks better now, but what is still a concern for me are the ads!
http://www.thinkdigit.com/thinkdigit_2007/images/advt1.jpg
This ad has no hyperlink, is static, occupies 25% of vertical screenspace and is just completely useless IMHO.. In hindsight, does JDM realy require ad-revenue?

Sorry for being suche a pessimist but the smilies on the boards are really silly.. am sure there are better smiley packs available for free off the net, if you have no luck in getting them, you can always contact me, I can help.

[ratedrsuperstar]

this site is good but we need the REAL DIGIT PPL TO LOOK OVER not users

like we can have agent 001 answer some questions and so too for other questions and just not edit out stuff like our RESIDENT GOD "RAABO"

coz i find this as a gr8 site to discuss but not to get help from none of my problems frm the past year and a half have been answered correctly

[blackpearl]

What makes you think the users are any sort of inferior to the "Real Digit people"? ;)

[ratedrsuperstar]

i'm not blaming the users but most of them come here only for help and not for much contribution and regular ones just go about posting updates and news

instead ppl like RAABO should be actively involved in sub-forums like QnA,Hardware & Software T.S.

[Vishal Gupta]

Whenever we click on a thread link, which doesnt exist now (Due to upgrading to vBulletin), we get a broken page. For example, click on following link:

the thinkdigit website is crap...its totally not in accordance to the standards of the digit magazine....plzz change it

[krates]

Just one suggestion integrate forum login in website

[mohanty1942]

A serious problem with thinkdigit website & NOBODY is bothered.

The search feature on the forum doesn't give desired result !!!
Just give a seach for threads giving multiple keywords & watch the meshed up results.

The search feature on forum undoubtably FAILS to deliver !!!.

This problem was already posted in this thread on 29.06.2006. But NO response/correction have been made till now -rather the search feature function got worse than ever.

That problem is --> on Thinkdigit Forum's Search Page not giving proper result when multiple keywords are entered.

Previously (in 2005) it was good and also functioning very perfectly as there were options to select

(a) " Find posts that contain all the keywords" &
(b) "Find posts that contain any of the Keywords enterd"
But now these options are not there.

Why such LOOSE treat with DIGIT's website that claims to be NO-1 ?

[Batistabomb]

Thanking you for your monthly editions,my valuable suggestion is that concentrate on security reasons and networking issues in your regular issues

[nikhil ramteke]

its releted to our forum...after log in within few minutes i get sign out automatically....is there any cookie set for security purpose by the digiters?

Whenever we click on a thread link, which doesnt exist now (Due to upgrading to vBulletin), we get a broken page. For example, click on following link:

http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31172&highlight=

and u'll get a broken page. I think it should be changed. :)

When I visit my control panel, I don't see a feature for viewing only my threads and posts. Is this feature even there here or not? I'm not talking about subscribed threads but a separate link for the above said feature.

For eq., I post in a long thread, and I wish to navigate to my post in that thread, how do I do it without going through the entire thread?

[Ankur Gupta]

Visit your profile to find those links :)

[Hitboxx]

Where? I don't find any. I think you're not understanding me.

[Ankur Gupta]

Find all posts by hitbox.champion (http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/search.php?do=finduser&u=29088)
Find all threads started by hitbox.champion (http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/search.php?do=process&showposts=0&starteronly=1&exactname=1&searchuser=hitbox.champion)

I think this is what you are looking for right?

[Hitboxx]

Ah thank you., there! Wish they had it in the control panel itself where all would be in once place, subscribed, posted and started ones. Feels logical!!:rolleyes:

Edit: now can you please remove the above links Ankur? My personal space....

[gurujee]

Hey How About Freedom>>>like The Mods Could Be Elected By Us

[Gigacore]

[Rajesh Pandey]

Why Dont you guys redesign the whole site for your aniversary?Also I would really like if you people instead of just providing the link to the forums,show the New Posts posted in the forum !

[utsav]

[Gigacore]

digit forum and site is already fast enough,

but i can't open neither the forum nor the site from my desk:( nobody is helping me.. i'm using opera mini

[Nihal]

One thing that could make the forum pages lighter is to stop pics as signatures ;)

There are no images allowed in signatures anyway, i tried to do that!:p

If not pls Enable this option

[Gigacore]

Hmmm... save all the pages in a folder and read it whenever u want! :)

[ratedrsuperstar]

why does the "send a message via skype to ----" icon reload frm the forum rather than the cache like all other forum images.i'm using opera 8.24.

it distorts the formatting of the page for a while

[Ron]

Hmmm... save all the pages in a folder and read it whenever u want! :)

[CadCrazy]

Visit this thread
http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73538
and go to cad/design section on the first page. You see three quoted messages. I added one quote for entire text but the text is automatically divided to three quotes. I tried 100 of times to remove those two extra quote but as soon as i delete them and save the post to my surprise nothing s changed again three quote.

I request admins/mods to plz help me remove it

[adi007]

^^there is no such option in vbulletin to enable saving of a complete thread
he is right.But i have one suggestion,use printable version of the thread(click thread tools>Show printable version).Then click show 50 posts from one thread at the top.it can reduce your work to a great degree..

[vaibhavtek]

@adi007

[iMav]

when a member is banned:

1. can u show the time for how long he is banned

2. can u show a message saying that he is banned coz the twice iv been banned and when i try to open the forum, it takes very long to load and sometimes just shows a message server too slow or something like that or sometimes it takes me to the home page of the person who banned me

[vaibhavtek]

In Edit Avatar Section in User CP at the bottom it is written:-

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 80 by 80 pixels or 15.6 KB (whichever is smaller).

Can u just increase the size to around 100 X 100 pixcels..!!!

Whenver I try to upload an Animated Image it doesnot animate after uploading in this forum...!!!

My current avatar is a Animation but it is not animating..!!! :-x

Plz fix this problem...!!!


Agree with the suggestion of iMav that There must be the facility that when a user is banned for how days,hours etc etc he is banned must be shown..!!!

Ok the next thing that u can do Raboo.

See this post (http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?p=753995#post753995) and the the post below it.

So plz enable Javascipt and HTML in this forum.

Hope will recieve this update ASAP..!!!

[rohan_shenoy]

^ @ Vaibhav, I don't think its safe to enable HTML and javascript.

And here is my request:
Can we make the tutorial section only for "Procedure oriented" things. There are few threads such as "Windows error messages explained", "Web error codes and meaning", etc.

I agree that the above are not totally non tutorial type so can we have a sub-section for "informational readings" in tutorial section? In such threads there is no procedure involved, only reading is involved.
