Vitare Blog

This weekend we have added a handy feature to the forums, especially if you are on the go and enjoy using the internet on your mobile/cell phone.

Vitare Forums are officially supported on your iPhone/iPod Touch – yes, that’s right! You can now easily stay up to date with discussions on the Vitare Forums anywhere you are.

Test out the new feature today by going to: http://www.vitare.net/forum/iphone on your mobile device.

Only supported for Apple iPhone and iPod Touch, may work on other phones. Additional charges may apply. Please check with your mobile network provider.

Well, as the weekend starts we have updated the Vitare Forums with a bunch of new features, which will allow you to get more interactive and have more fun on the forums. So let’s go over what we’ve added.

User bars

For the first time on the forums, you get your very own user bars which you can post on other forums, on your website, or in your signature. These show your username, posts and your group! You can edit your user bar in the User CP.

Social Networking, and more!

You can now tell others what your Steam account is, XBOX Live, Facebook and others! These will be shown in your posts. You can share this by going into User CP and Edit Profile.

Design your profile

Your user profiles are now fully customisable, you c an pick the colours to make it yours. Simply click on the “Style” button on your profile, and you can unleash your creativity. Simply click in one of the boxes, and the colour pallet will appear, you choose the colour and click the small icon of the pallet. You will instantly be able to preview the new design, and change it as you wish.

Profile messages & buddies

Leave someone a message, you can now go onto their profile and leave a message, they will then receive an alert that it is there, you now also have buddies.

Registration security

We have increased the registration security. To prevent bots, we have added image verification where new users are required to type in the letters/numbers, they also receive a welcome personal message once they register.

There are more features to come

Hello everyone, after trying to fix this for a long time, we have almost fixed the error on the forums where your post would have loads of unwanted symbols. We are glad to say it has been fixed… almost. Along with every fix, another bug always somehow appears.

The known bug is when you submit a request (eg. change your settings, post a new thread or not use the quick reply function), you will be shown a error screen. Ignore this, if it does not go away after a few seconds, scroll down and click the text that says “Redirect me now”.

Thanks for bearing with us, and please remember that we are doing our best to fix the issues, but at least you will no longer have to stare at the endless unwanted symbols!

Thanks, and have a great weekend!
Daniel & The Team

AS OF 7TH JULY 2010 THIS ERROR IS NOW FIXED.
