Another New Feature - Content Popups

12 Feb 2011

Share on Reddit

We've just launched another new feature that I hope you will all enjoy. It's in beta testing at the moment so there may be a few gremlins laying around. If you do find any issues please leave them in the comments below.

(You can see the other changes we've made over the last few days on this link)

Ok, now a lot of people have been asking for something similar in our recent feedback survey, if you have yet to leave your feedback please do so here. Your feedback is very important to us. This is your site so we want it to operate as best we can for you all.

Anywho, let's get on with the new feature.

When you are now on the spoilertv homepage you currently have to click a post link to see the post. We're pleased to announced a new feature that enables you to quickly see that content.

Next to each post you should see a little Blue Icon on the left.



If you click that as opposed to the post title you will get the post content, including comments etc in a nice popup window.



You can scroll down to view the content and you can add/read the comments just like before. The popup should load quicker than going into the post as before.

To close the popup, you can either click anywhere outside of the Popup, or you can click the "X" at the top-right of the screen.



You can still access the old method of viewing a post simply by clicking on the Post Title as opposed to the Icon.

We hope you enjoy this new feature and it makes it a bit quicker to load the content that you want to see. It also means you don't have to keep using the back button to go back to the main page as the main page stays where it is.

Let us know in the comments what you think and if you find any bugs/issues or if you have any suggestions.
