I’m not sure this just looks quite out of place imo.
Other than that this really isn’t a big deal. My only other nitpick is that it would look less thrown in there if the roblox dark theme background was changed to match the grey found on the creator hub.
We’re aware of the syncing issues (for avatar, username, display name, email address used for notifications) and are working on addressing these. You can see this resolve in the future.
Love the tie-in with Create, way easier to switch around now. It is nice that the header hides itself when you’re scrolled down as well.
I don’t like the trend of calling it “Forums”, this is incorrect, there is only one forum, it has always been called “The DevForum”. Can this terminology be updated everywhere? There are various arguments for which is correct - plural or non, but we have the history of this being singular, and the subcategories being simply called categories, or sub-forums.
Further, this feels very barren and out of place. It feels like there should be an icon up there, or a graphical logo, or simply nothing except for the thread title - the indent for the label is very distracting because the title is not aligned with the page anymore. Right now it is just a disembodied floating label that looks sort of broken.
On paper this sounds like a great idea, however when I’m on the devforum I’m not trying to go to the creator hub on the same tab, or even at all. It was put together very quickly and there’s so many issues with the design now (Such as there just being a redudant space at the top, forums being shown twice, and profile shown twice). Not the mention the 3x loading times
Adding quick links to the main website and studio. You’ll notice that on the bottom of the left sidebar on the creator hub, those two quick links are present. I would love to see them on the new top navigation bar of the DevForum as well. The quick link to the main website would especially be useful to me as I often switch between the main website and DevForum. A simple button to click would greatly help.
This was already on the plans to be produced; now, it is finally here!
However, I believe a few things could be improved since this update was implemented today.
To start with, I suggest changing the name of the section from “Forums” to “Forum” since there has only been one forum for Roblox Creators/Developers historically. Secondly, with the recent integration with the Creator Hub page, it would be appropriate to update the website’s name accordingly. For example:
Furthermore, the idea of @Bestspyboy should also be taken into consideration too! It is visually clean and organized because we don’t need to see the duplicated profile picture as well as the title of the website’s name being replicated.
Yep! I don’t go between all three every session, but I do go between them quite often (in many sessions). And I’m sure that many other developers do as well, some probably more than me. So, I would greatly appreciate it.
This is consistent with the behavior before the change (you would have been logged in on different accounts on devforum vs. Creator Hub). It’s just more visible now so understandably it’s a bit more confusing in short-term.
We’re going to make changes over time to pull these two closer together. This is just the first change in a sequence.
There’s an issue where dark mode is forced on the DevForum now, despite light mode selected in settings. This only affects the DevForum, not other Creator Hub pages. Please fix!
If I may make a suggestion, I think it’d be good to integrate the forum stuff with the main top bar a bit more closely, like how Framework does on their website. Look on the right hand side:
