3. It doesn't matter tuh meh!!!

re: Was TDF better than the plain vanilla "digit"???

Absolutely Zero Damns give or take.
Voted no. 4.

Well, they changed their login section for one... Have to click through one more screen... Can't find the forum in tapatalk too... In working condition, that is!!! :-(

No "like" buttons too!!!

Re: Was TDF better than the plain vanilla "digit"???

the change in the forum is almost negligible for the desktop users, IMO.
just login and like buttons have changed

where are the leaderboards?

"Old classic look" of Thinkdigit.com was a mess.
So, new design is a relief.

As for the rewards system.. I think it will attack a lot of traffic to digit. Well played digit.

Anyway, so I tried to login to digit.in through forum ID. No success.

Re: Was TDF better than the plain vanilla &quot;digit&quot;???

Why am I able to browse digit only through mobile?? Browsing from PC returns Server not found error'?? Any idea?

I love the new design. Hands down. Changing designs has its risks, considering Tech2 made a mess of things with their 'Yellow yellow' theme.

what is the reward system

Imo new site is good but they should leave the forums alone let it be Thinkdigit Forum

the more you help ,the more you earn. for every 221 reward point, you will get a digit magazine free.

i kinda feel like marketing strategy. to attract people to comment and interact more.

we can comment on digit articles with the forum id?

[MENTION=135617]rijinpk1[/MENTION],the forum connect link you posted gives me page not found-500 error on login with my forum id but i still get the logout button in top right corner.also how are we supposed to see our points on dashboard as the dashboard icon(trophy icon) on that forum connect link only shows latest users awarded points.

have you logged in as shown in post 9(by clicking on 4th icon)?

in order to know the points, you can visit here Digit Rewards Points

i am not getting that 4th icon but i can login through that forum connect link so using that.i visited the gamification link as suggested by you & there on clicking dashboard showed me the earned points which is 5 btw

frankly speaking i find it easier to configure a router behind another router with port forwarding than to understand all this social networking/linking/earning points kind of thing.

my point was actually a sarcasm intended

. the mixing up of main site and forum was not required.

my point was based on my preference.i only post in traditional forums so whatever benefits digit main site provides(now or in future) i will still post here only.

they should restore the forum as it was before

whats the criteria for reward points.. ? if its based on the actual Quality of posts on the forum .. well then i am disappointed..

+ they took away all the likes as well

that used to encourage us.. looks like no fun in posting now..

looks like time to get back to silent guest mode :-?

W

never cared about "likes" & the posts here have no role in reward points.for that you have to post at digit main site question/answer section i think.

Digit is now sometimes blocked at work.. So this sucks for me.

Whoa!!! When did Digit become NSFW???

༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Give back old forum

For me, nothing has changed, except the domain name. What am I missing?
Note: I use adblock.

There are no radical changes to the forum itself and the Digit homepage itself looks cleaner than before.

I read once that Raaabo was bemoaning that the Digit brand was getting diluted because he named the website thinkdigit. I think Digit makes more sense.

The Digit homepage, at first, seemed very cluttered to me..but, after 2-3 days usage, i feel it much better than the previous versions.. +1 to new page.
Apart from the "like button removal " and "log out button removal", i don't see/feel much changes in the forum

I like the New digit website and it's new design but linking forum login is a very bad idea. And I'm still not able to login to forum. So far using in tapatalk only.

Change is generally hard to accept but I can see the level of work they did, hopefully things will get streamlined. However, asking to revert must be discouraging for Digit.in

Ricky said:

Hmmm.... Yeah... You have made a valid point...

On a side note though, Digit feels more like a beta than a finished product for now...

^^ And we the beta testers. We should be happy to be the beta testers.

the last time i ordered, it reached my home on 20th of that month even though they shipped it on the first day itself. so i think ,this should also be the same.

So not a subscriber? Just some issues bought online?

It still shouldn't take so long. Write to editor at digit.in with your order confirmation details. Let me look into this.

Okay, so I got a reply from Digit and it is clear that you didn't take a look into this!!! :-x

Here's the reply:-

Dear Sir,

Thank you very much for writing to us.

We would like to inform you that this is correct AWB number ,registered post takes 10 to 12 working days to deliver the copy. Please wait till 20th Jun, if you will not receive your issue till then, inform us we will send you the replacement copy.

Do not hesitate to reach out to us in case you need any other assistance.

Happy reading,
Team Digit

Now, [MENTION=1]Raaabo[/MENTION]

You were saying that it should not be taking a long time... Your logistic team thinks otherwise... Contradictory statements do not bode well with your magazine!!!

Also, please check the tracking no. yourself and provide me a valid proof that it works!!! :-x

And, yeah, for your information I ordered a screen guard from Chennai, they sent it through registered post and I assure you it didn't take 10 to 12 working days!!! Ordered it on the 2nd of this month and got it on the 6th!!!

Hey guys a little help. I use opera mini to browse tdf. B4 the update i had to manually select tdf members layout which is the full version ie all the pages of a post are accessible. This would nt be there by default so i selectd it by clicking full site at the bottom of the page. After the update when i click full site it says page not found. so im stuck with tdf guests layout whch is the barebones layout with no access to further pages of a post. A little help?t

Huh? The style selection works when logged in, and not otherwise. Since you're saying "full site" I assume it loads the mobile style first. Clicking on fiul site should take you to the guests style, that's normal behaviour. I guess I don't understand what you're complaining about, so explain step by step maybe...

Re: Was TDF better than the plain vanilla &amp;quot;digit&amp;quot;???

@Raabo Well thats the problem. When i click full site it says Page not found. B4 the update it used to let me select the layout. I use Opera mini n since i use a j2me phone,cant use tapatalk.

Even after logging in it used to be tdf guests so i had to manually select tdf members. Now i cant change the layout so cant browse the forum properly. Now did the update remove the members layout?

Oh well luks lyk problem solvd. UC Browser works for tdf. In uc clicking full site changes layout to tdf members. Wonder why it doesnt work in opera mini. Browsing in opera is much smoother.

I put them back for now, until we get a better way to have SSO. Old way still available to those wanting to login to site and forum. Tapatalk seems to be a stupid problem on their behalf. We have everything working fine on our end.

This is Raaabo btw

I haven't experienced any problems for sometime now.

I get that Package file version error too , once or twice, but it isn't that annoying. And generally goes away after 1 or 2 attemps to enter the forum through Tapatalk. I'm on the Moto G BTW

Raaabo said:

Okay. I am on iOS and the package file problem is a very persistent one and is very annoying. Doesn't ever let me browse or join the forum. All access is denied and package file version errors. If it's not a problem from your side then maybe you could report to tapatalk people?

In Android, maybe. In iOS, no good. Not even searching again and adding helps. Always the same error. When I try to join anyways it says Access is Denied. :hissyfit:

-----Manual Update------

Just tried to clear cache and add again. Can confirm working perfectly again (on my iPod Touch 5th Gen 64GB on iOS 7.1.1) for the time being. As many people have said that the result might be temporary, I'll keep checking and report it here.
