Introducing... MuggleNet Axial!
We are proud to introduce to you our brand new news system, MuggleNet Axial. Here are some of the changes and features:
  • Comment registration. Now you have your own personalized account to comment on each news item. Sign up today! Remember, you only have to register once.
  • Categorized news items. Now you can browse through our news based off of the specific category, whether it be Emma Watson or Movie 5 info.
  • Full news items. What if the information in the news item is too much for one post? Now you can see individual pages for each news item. News posts with more information to offer will have the headline linked to another page.
  • RSS Feed. You can now easily make MuggleNet's news come right to you by using our new RSS feed.
  • Improved backend. No more mysteriously deleted news posts or strange formatting errors. Our new system was coded from scratch, which makes it easier for us to improve its functionality and add new features.
  • Speaking of new features, we have many ideas planned that will improve the way MuggleNet does news. We'll let you know.
We know that registering for comments may be a hassle, but due to the volume of comments we get, this makes it easier for our staff to manage. It's a short, one-time registration that only takes a few seconds.

We can't thank our coder Matt enough for the time and effort he put into programming this!

Posted by DarkeSword May 9th 2006

Thank goodness. I've been waiting for MuggleNet to offer an RSS feed for ages. Cheers!


Posted by Cinds May 9th 2006

Wow. THis is a change! Though a very good change! =]


Posted by SupahhxFlyyy May 9th 2006

I thinkI like this way better. Its...something new. Keeps life exciting.


Posted by Tina May 9th 2006

Nice, I like it.


Posted by stststSTETTO May 9th 2006

it's nice. i like it. :] :] :] NOW ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS UPDATE THE WALL OF SHAME!!! :D ♥


Posted by Maurader4 May 9th 2006

that will be a first.....


Posted by JCPotter May 9th 2006

excellent! Change is always uncomfy at first, but i know that we'll get used to it (ie, just like mugglenet fanfic)


Posted by stilapixie May 9th 2006

CONGRATS on the new system and its improvements. THOUGH, i'd like to point out that i'm not entirely fond of the idea of having the longer full news items linked to another page. actually, one of the main reasons that i choose mugglenet over other hp fan sites is because of the former easy-access full-layout news system that didn't compress news ...


Posted by Voluptuous_Jon May 9th 2006

This is awesome! Mine own screen name!


Posted by Rob May 9th 2006

Wow, this is going to be different... I like how the comments are built right into the page. I wasnt usually very active in comments, but this sounds really cool...


Posted by lumos May 9th 2006

i'm going to have to get used to it. but i am willing to. i heart mugglenet you guys are my favourite. way better thank leaky:D:D luv yas you make my summers the best


Posted by inanimatus May 9th 2006

I'm okay with it! I kept getting the 'Please refresh' thing, or whatever until now.


Posted by occlumens May 9th 2006

Interesting. I like the login though. Now we all have proper screenames and everything.


Posted by cheeseman630 May 9th 2006

I love this new news system and the polls finally work with my firefox browser.


Posted by PotterH May 9th 2006

Yay, I finally have my own account. Cool. Now I can post comments when I feel like it, yay.


Posted by Maurader4 May 9th 2006

this is awsome! before it didn't let me post comments and i wanted to chuck my computer out the window.... but now i can post happily!


Posted by stilapixie May 9th 2006

okay, i'm a little annoyed that the post that actually showed up on the board cut off the end of what i had written... anyways, the jist of it is that i would like you to consider keeping the original format of displaying news on the main page, without shortening and linking the longer ones. thanx.


Posted by candygrl May 9th 2006

omg.... all i can say is WOWOMGWOWOWOWOW!!!! lolz =D this is very cool, but i soo miss the old comments!!! They were just what made mugglenet MUGGLENET!! and it really sucks that there can't be anymore off-topic arguments/parties anymore... hehe ;) But hopefully it won't keep not letting everyone post with the annoying "no name/comment" thing! *squ...

Posted by Kim May 9th 2006

The RSS feed doesn't seem to be working for me. Maybe it's just above my head? Otherwise, I love the new everything.


Posted by Maikki May 9th 2006

Heh- am I the only one who made the connection that Ben made this post and that it has the words "Emma Watson" written in it? rofl


Posted by princesspotter May 9th 2006

lol! mugglenet is organised!! wooooo!


Posted by Hedwig428 May 9th 2006

Yeah!! Totally cool!


Posted by stilapixie May 9th 2006

(continuing from previous post, otherwise i'd get cut off again) another minor setback: visitors can't submit news anoymore, but that's okay. overall, kudos to mugglenet for increasing the quality of the site. please take my earlier comment into consideration. ciao.


Posted by candygrl May 9th 2006

aw, i'm gonna have to get used to this... =( and now i can't be impatient! it actually posts when u click post, LOLZ but i agree this is such a good way to get rid of imposters and stuff... =( and *yay* i can finally put more than 3 [.]'s in a row!! ..... =D lolz


Posted by spleen May 9th 2006

sweet. me like. much easier to read other comments too.


Posted by girlienitwit May 9th 2006

This is really cool cus my computer actually lets me post on the firts try now!


Posted by smurff May 9th 2006

I'm not sure if I like this yet or not... I guess we'll just wait and see. I can't see this making anything harder or more complicated since really, the only changed thing is the comments. I suppose it'll just take some time to get used to and then everything will seem normal again. :D


Posted by HPfreak015 May 9th 2006

This is pretty sweet, keep up the good work guys!


Posted by VOLDEMORT1 May 9th 2006

I HOPE THAT THIS POST HELPS ME BETTER TO PARTICIPATE IN MUGGLENET AND GET THE INSIDE NEWS. P.S. I LOVE HARRY POTTER!!!!!!


Posted by candygrl May 9th 2006

I think this new system is way better than before. So glad you made this easier to comment and get around the news. Me likes!

Posted by tovarbaker May 9th 2006

great idea, it is about time actually although hwo do you update or change your info, lik eif you want to change your password or if your email changes


Posted by lorioreo May 9th 2006

I think it's funny how it shows when the person submitted a comment. I like how it says, less than a minute ago, or almost and hour ago. Yeah, I cound definitely get used to this new system.


Posted by xxlilyofthevalleyxx May 9th 2006

I like the new system, even if it does take more time to post than before. At least now it'll be more organized. =)


Posted by Ditty May 9th 2006

I don't really know what to say about this... I mean... What's the point... it seems more complicated... But, if it's best for Mugglenet then so be it..


Posted by SplinchMe May 9th 2006

Hooray!


Posted by AW_d69 May 9th 2006

eew, I don't like this news system at all!


Posted by SomeTallKid May 9th 2006

This... This ROCKS!!! YEAH!


Posted by ospreypatronus May 9th 2006

Awesome! No more flamers! Yaay!
