New voting page - always open in new tab or not?

Post by Mike » Fri Mar 27, 2015 11:06 pm

With the new voting page at http://vote.pkhonor.net, whenever you click a 'Vote' button, it will open the toplist vote page in the same tab. We figured if people wanted to open the page in another tab, they would simply use middlemouse click (or control-click) on the button.

However, I understand some people might find it confusing/slightly frustrating that the toplist doesn't always automatically open in a new tab. So now it's up to you to choose what it should be.

Thanks a lot for reporting this, we had indeed put the wrong URL on the vote button. Fixed now :)


The poll result seems pretty clear to me. We've hereby changed the vote buttons to always open a new tab when clicked.
Do rememeber to press 'F5' in your browser (or click the refresh button) after you have voted, to renew our voting gateway. Then you'll see how many voting points you now have and how long until the next time you can vote again :)
When you hover over a timer with your mouse, you'll also see where the votepoints were added last time.
