Upgrading the News Page!

**WILL** · 07-12-2006, 05:22 AM

Hey everyone! As you may have noticed, there has been some new additions to the News Page of late. This is a part of my efforts to enhance the PGD experiece and offer you all the news and information you would want when coming to the site.

I'm planning on adding more RSS feeds from the GDC guys aswell as move some things around to make the most of the space we have near the top of the layout.

Any comments, suggestions or requests are welcome. We'll do what we can to improve PGD for you.

The RSS feeds and headlines panel does not show up in the subsilver theme.

Yeah, I've been keeping that copy around just in case I doof and make a big enough mistake that I need to start over again.

I'll be applying all the changes I make to the main PGD Theme to the Subsilver theme version aswell.

So out of curiosity, who actually uses the PGD (default) theme?

**Legolas** · 12-12-2006, 03:45 PM

Me o/

I use the default theme, but wouldn't a quick query of the DB with a chart of usage details be more useful then asking in the forums

**WILL** · 12-12-2006, 05:07 PM

True, but then we'd have far less to talk about, no?

See also, I can now put you all on the spot and ask informally what you guys think of the additions to the main (portal.php) page?

Are the changes good, bad... indifferent, etc. I'm guess it's not so bad or I'd have heard about it by now.

Sorry for those trying to surf PGD while I was doing all the work the other day though. :lol: Must have thought they where having browser problems.

I actually am having one remaining issue with the GameDev.net RSS. For some reason it's not the most current one, but an older (possibly last?) one that comes up. :scratch: Oh well, I'll get to it in a few days I guess.

So... opinions? I won't be offended, no worries.
