Having trouble figuring out how to mark a swap a sent, rate your partners, or view participants?

The yellow swap option box on all swap info pages is now located in the upper right corner of the page under the main blue links. see image below for clarification.

Some people (especially those using Internet Explorer) are still having layout issues and the right column flows below the middle column, making the yellow swap option box appear below the swap comments. That should not be happening and we will hopefully get it fixed asap.

The yellow option box is the same as it has always been, it is just in a slightly different spot. You should find all of your usual (grammatically incorrect) options in it.

The new layout changes should not be extremely drastic. If the site is looking terrible, try refreshing a few times. It might take a while to get the full new format loaded if you have the old version cached. We will also continue to work on the IE problems and adjust the text sizes and spacing throughout the site. Have patience. :)

Thanks for your help. I promise things will keep on improving!

Thanks Rachel, it looks awesome so far!

I love how you are asked to confirm sent in a pop up!

yeah but it can help, so it's a helpful bump! I had the hardest time figuring things out the first time I got to the new site!

In case it's helpful to know, I'm having these issues:

My middle column is way at the bottom!

And:

When I click on profiles, sometimes their right hand column either doesn't show up, or is at the bottom!

Not bugging...just giving input! I Use IE.

The yellow option box doesn't appear anywhere for me. I get "You have been invited to a new group" where the illustration above says the option box should be.

I use IE. I will try again later. I will be patient!. I like the new lay out.

If you are seeing the invite, it should be because you are looking at the Dashboard page - the one that you get immediately after you log in. The screenshot above is of an individual swap page. Are you still getting the invite rather than the yellow box when you are on the individual swap description pages?

I've been having the same problem as azrosieposie.

About the yellow box: it shows at the top of the swap page before partners have been assigned, then at the bottom of the swap page after partners have been assigned!

everything else is good :o)

I thought I was going crazy I was like I knew it used to be right 'there' but it;s not now......this so explains it.

thanks Rachel!

Hi swappers,

Are most of you now seeing the swap pages correctly (as shown above)? Or is the yellow box still in weird spots? We have made some adjustments which should fix the layout, but we need feedback to know if it worked.

Thanks,

Mine is showing up exactly as shown above (minus the arrows lol), and I use IE

My setup up is great! I use Firefox and I am impressed with the clean look of it.

Thanks Rachel and Travis, great job!

I really love the new look and am thrilled with the potion to watch a swap....it takes off the pressure to sign up before I forget where a swap was listed....thanks a million
