Design Update - Our New Navigation is here

[ZI0MATRIX]

I'm not thrilled with the new design. It's making it less attractive for me to visit the site.

 

 

 

I'm using 21:9 screen divide in three parts with displayfusion. This puts nexusmods into tablet mode.

And no I don't want to zoom or resize the window, I need the space like it is.

So how about a toggle for this. Or a better detection algorithm.

Same problem here. It looks like someone tried to copy Windows 10 design.

After a few days of using this, here's some feedback:

 

- The Upload button needs equal margins on the bottom and top. It looks off right now

- Notification colour is a horrible brown (on Skyrim Nexus at least)

- Notifications NEED thumbnails again. This is the only thing I would actively ask for, without them it's a pain.

- Notifications should not disappear on click.

Actually this sucks on phones. On mine I have the white address bar above the moving black strip effectively cutting off a third of the screen and the black strip follows you as you scroll down, really sucks. I can scroll to the top if I need the info on the bar, really I can, it isn't that hard.

It's the mobile/tablet media query kicking in WAY too early

For one, it's not margins. It's padding. And the padding is 8px on all four sides.

Yeah, that particular shade of brown is a bit of an eyesore where ever it's used :)

You can still see all your notifications by clicking on "See All"

The new layout is a mess and backwards in functionality :down: !
“Updated and tracked content update” useless :ermm: where is the tracking center?!?

So where is Mods of the Month now? Where are the mod categories? And why doesn't the Nexus icon at the top of the page take me to the home page of the game I'm already on anymore? It's like there's this desire to push all this new stuff without retaining the best of the things that already worked before.

If you want to go to the game home page, left click on the game name with the house symbol next to it. Mod Categories can be be found in the "Mods" drop down menu. You left click on "Mod Categories". If you want to find the image share, you have to left click on "Media". If you are searching for a mod and only know the mod author's name, you need to left click for the drop down menu and then search "Users". I didn't know that mod authors were changed to mod user. I asked why this happened and I never received a logical answer. It seems there were changes just for the sake of changing.

For one, you do not need to explain css terminology to me. I did not inspect source just so that I could write a smart comment. The fact remains, it is not equal VISUALLY and needs to be compensated as such. Either that or I'll just write my own Stylus override (which seems like it it will be necessary at this point)

Why would I want to visit a separate page to view my notifications? It's not good design.

Also to further add, it is not immediately intuitive on how to view all of your mods. Before there was simply a "Manage my mods" button, however the new update "MY MODS >" just looks like a category header. Edited September 28, 2019 by johnskyrim

I know for design functionality, a lot of sites need to have an easy transition between desktop and mobile versions. However, I really can't see there being a huge percentage of mobile users for this site and even if there are 3 mobile games that allow mods, was it worth it to change the entire site based on that?
