    When is the wide screen going to be back? I hate the regular version not only because the wood on the sides looks very out of place, but everything is squished. I didn't spend money on a wide screen monitor to see it squished :razz:

    Can't find the thread, but one of the web admins said that the sales ratings is lacking due to an issue with vBulletin. IIRC, the developers of vBulletin would have to correct the problem.

    Joe: Its got nothing to do with Polk on this one. See Patricks response below:

    The iTrader functionality is pretty much dead due to the fact that it is not compatible with the latest version of vbulletin software we are running. I will keep an eye on the plugin. Once it is updated then we can begin to use it again.

    Thanks for the update, sorry I missed that one.


    Now the issue is an easy fix. Above this page System Showcase is this.

    http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showcase/

    Which brings you too a 404 error page.

    On the 404 error page is this link.

    http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/system-showcase/

    Which seems to work.

    Now that the link has a backdoor [or front door depending on how you look at it] on that one, on to the Member Sales Rating which has needed to be resurrected for years...

    Actually, the upgrade seems to have been site wide. I really like paneling and the look and layout of the main pages. Blends very well with the motif. The paneling on the forum pages is just an extension from the main page ( http://www.polkaudio.com/ ) to make the site look more cohesive.

    I'm also fine with the logo. Nice retro look that goes with everything.

    Just my .02,

    This has been fixed. As you can see we have updated the front end look of the system showcase and are in the process of revamping the creation process. While some areas of the site and forum are just a simple "reskin" some are a total gut process. This is the case for the showcase area.

    As far as the itrader system goes. I would love to bring it back but its not up to me. The plugin is not supported by the latest vbulletin release.

    Thank You Patrick :smile:

    The system showcase is up and running even though it is not accessible from certain links. If you go to the main Polk page and fly your mouse over the forum tab, a drop down box will appear. Click onto the "System Showcase" and you're in like Flynn. If you are too lazy to do that, then just click the link below;

    Hello, Patrick. That's a shame that vBulletin does not support that anymore as the member sales rating was a nice feature of the forum. Since it is no longer available, is there anyway to remove that line code to where the member sales rating is no longer there?
