Yes thanks

Thanks, I brought the font on the live stream up to the same sizes as elsewhere.

how do I get rid of the twitter feed on the left hand side ?

[BirdOPrey6]

The sidebar is not something intended to be removed at this time. When the screen gets too narrow it should automatically move below the main content however.

ok. Too much of a risk for me to see spoiler scores. Never mind.

[BirdOPrey6]

I see, that makes sense, let me see what can be done.

Knew it was too good to last. The live feed has stopped automatically updating.

I really dont like the Twitter feed that is in the left hand side - is there anyway of moving it and then using teh full screen for teh actual forum?

The desktop layout (on a Mac anyway) is still very poor and looks quite dated. I don't know what look you're going for but there are thousands of modern looking websites/message boards out there. I don't know why you can't base this site on one of those.

Do you mean it eventually stops updating after a while because it has definitely updated a number of times for me today but it does eventually stop when the account has been inactive for a period of time. I'm not sure if that is unexpected.

I will work on a non-Twitter option.

vBulletin is the software we have, there will be no major changes at this point. There are more modern forums, this is true, but this is what we were given to work with. It's not just about a forum, the software needs to integrate with a single-sing-on system that spans a number of systems.
