Tried that a few times before. And just now anyway. No change. They don't seem to want to stay where I put them.

My god this is awesome. If Java chat ever comes back, could that be an optional gadget?

Edit: Also, could you allow us to choose how many name ratings, PMs and Posts we want to see. I'm wanting to be able to keep news, pms, new posts and site news but have now scrolling. Thanks.

Try a Hard Refresh. Control and F5.
Been doing that to no avail.

Have tried the same operation in Chrome too - still doesn't work.

Perhaps just implementing an extra 'save changes' button might help?

Not really, seems like it's specific requests getting blocked. You might be better off checking for firewall security settings or otherwise - either your browser isn't sending us the required data, or it's being stripped out somewhere else.

Forced refreshes won't change anything, nor will adding a 'save changes' button, the architecture doesn't allow it and it wouldn't make a difference here.

Tried both browsers with the firewall off. Still nothing. I suspect this may be a problem with data not being sent, rather than it getting blocked.

EDIT: Also tried with IE8 - still not working. IE8's displaying a rather glitchy version of the boxes. Glad I don't use it.

I only see you sending the data once (and that is a limited one). Are you sure you're giving it a bit of time after you move them? It may take some time to set up the connection before it is saved, it's not done straight away.

I've just given it a good 5 minutes and have had no results. I'm seeing no active connection to the site evident on this end.

That was frustratingly obscure. The order should be saved for everyone now.

Nicely done - that makes a bug-free site homepage. Thanks!

Great! And aside from that, I'll now get back to Poketransferring. Got two Pokedexes to complete!

I'm really liking the new layout. Just makes it much clearer for visitors as to what the site provides, and generally makes the site look more appealing. Brilliant work Jeroen!
Yes.

good job on the update, looks very snazzy

just a suggestion for the customisation page: have a global save button, rather than one for each single option. if, for example, i change all the options at once, and then save one, the other options will be reset, so i have to go through them again. it doesn't really change to much, but would make the customisation more fluid.

also, an option not to display the news gadgets, as specifying 0 returns the default amount? i'm really not interested at all in pokemon news, so there isn't really a reason for me to have it. although, at the moment, there isn't a reason that i'd need the space or anything, because there are only so many gadgets

perhaps also a user-friendliness thing, show the maximum range for news items (1-10). i'm not sure many people would want anymore than that, but when you save it, it comes back blank and the default amount are shown. just a suggestion that could make the design flow more.

as i said, you've done a great job, and the site definitely feels more up-to-date. these are just some things that i noticed when i had a look at it.
