    - when I go to a game everything (key stuff) doesn’t quite fit on the page (I mean the screen) whereas previously the board and key info all does ~ perhaps this is just auto size setting? I like to be presented with a full board and the key info all there without moving the screen around. Especially the full board.
    There is definitely an issue with the board sizing right now, causing this. To be addressed.

    2. My Games in the old version featured 4 different view formats; the beta version features only 2 view formats. Alas, the one view format I liked best previously (list), was not carried over to beta. Could we have list view again please?
    I assume you mean the expanded view with no board displayed?

    This can return if wanted.

    Regarding persisting view options

    This has been fixed (for My Games and Player directory only so far)

    BUT you will probably need to clear your site cookies for this to work.

    If you don't know how to remove cookies for one web site in your browser, you can do the following right from the RHP beta web site.

    Click your profile/avatar icon to see the My Account Menu.

    Click the 'My Settings' tab

    Select 'Cookie Settings' option.

    Click 'Remove all Cookies'.

    Log in again, all should be fixed.

    When viewing my games in Card view all of the game boards show white on the bottom. Unsure if this was an intentional change, but previously it showed whatever colour I played as on the bottom.
    Now fixed.

    Is there an option to not 'infinite scroll', but keep the pages of data that we currently have?

    If you are interested in going back through the forum to look at posts or threads from several years ago, It may take forever now.

    For example, the general forum currently is over 1500 pages, and will take us back to 8 August, 2001, with 30 threads per page.

    ...[text shortened]... not reasonable for this beta implementation, but still something to think about for a future update.
    One alternative, see the new blogs navigation update - a similar option could be possible for nearly all tables (but from a drop down menu)

    I have noticed this is now more of an issue since you can now "infinite scroll", leaving the column headers way behind too.

    - can’t see “dark mode” but I think you said this may be later??
    From the "My Account" menu, top right profile icon. Bottom of menu.

    Dark mode design may need some improvements.

    Russ, is it ok if we just post feedback in items as we find them or do you want lists/batches collated?
    Which ever suits you. All feedback welcome.

    Nothing is final or tied down. I'm grateful for the thoughts of anyone testing right now.

    If there is a consensus about something, then it will be changed.

    But, it is worth getting used to things a little before that happens. (In my case, I'm so familiar with the beta version, I dislike the look and feel of the production version now.)

    It also seems that the sound settings have no effect (I tried to turn it off, the move sound dispays regardless of the setting)
    This has now been fixed for both move sounds and waiting game alerts.

    That needs a fix, thanks for reporting.

    My Games is only showing completed games right now. (Late change broke this one!) A fix will come in the next 30 mins.

    Edit : Game "Result" in enhanced search is now non-functional as a work around.

    Edit 2 : Game "Result" in enhanced search is now available again.

    Edit 3 : An error incorrectly setting a current timestamps after an edit on forum posts has been fixed.

    Some current limitations :

    - Clan admin is not available, and you will see a message stating this. Just hit back on your browser to continue.
    - Live chess is not available yet.
    - Avoid any image uploading from the beta.
    - Some images (blogs, for example) may not be displayed. This is not a bug.


    Currently known issues :

    - Javascript errors to console for some graphs ( pie charts).
    - No PGN/Fen tags in messages currently.
    - Home page background image is of low quality and to be replaced.

    Further note :
    -Web pages will be performing slightly sub-optimally as all included files are loaded individually, rather than bundled into one.


    Edit : Reported issues without a fix :
    [ ] More button ('...' ) options sometimes not completely visible (e.g. My Home, Urgent games)
    [ ] Close buttons not visible in dark mode ('X' ).
    [ ] Home page text contrast poor in dark mode.
    [ ] Board defaults too large causing layout issues (off screen, requiring a scroll.)

    If you hit any issues in the closed beta (that are not security related*) please document in this thread.

    *Send feedback in that unlikely occurrence.
