The FAQ topic(s) have been removed and instead, I have created a new page to hopefully make it easier to find what you are looking for on the site.

For those of you with iOS, I have added an icon that will be displayed if you save Virtuadopt in Safari to your home screen and will be like an "app", just opens in the browser.

If a user has Premium, you will see a new category under their Profile called "top 5 newest additions". This only shows adopts with your OT, not ones you obtain through the GTS or by other means.

If you would like to remain anonymous, you have the option of turning it off. By default, it is off. If you want it visible, go to the Manage section of your Premium profile and turn it on.

Note: Everyone will be able to see the new section, not just you or only Premium members. Only Premium members have the option of displaying it. Non-Premium cannot turn it on/off.

Couple upgrades to the Global Trade Station


- While we probably won't set an expiration time on trades, you can now see the date and time a trade was posted.
- As requested, any user who is on your foe list will not appear in the GTS for you. However, you can still see their trades by going to their profile page and clicking "View User's Trades". They are also not able to see or offer on your trades.

If you have Premium, you can now see the number of monthlies you have adopted and the number of shiny Pokemon (1-649) you have received. Also, you can see and click all of those adopts below that, whether you still own them or not.

Two long awaited changes:

- Trade Point donating has been changed to be like the GTS upload system. You can view adoptables based on their box order and can select more than one to donate at a time.
- Click Exchange credit system has also been changed to be like the GTS upload system. You view adoptables by boxes, but can still only edit one at a time. You can also view only adoptables that have credits on them.

For those of you using Internet Explorer, you should now notice a few visual changes.

- Page headings like Explore no longer have that weird double letter ghosting effect in the headings. See spoiler for example
Spoiler:

- Because the above has been fixed, you can now use the item scroll bar under .profile on the right hand side of each page.


Because both of these have been fixed, I will go out on a limb and say we will now support Internet Explorer 10. So, if you notice any issues while using IE 10, post them in Bugs with all required information. I already know the Explore map isn't centering like in other browsers. I am still trying to figure that out.

Forgot to mention this

If you are using the Windows 8 "metro" Internet Explorer app, you can create an icon in your list of apps for instant access to Virtuadopt. This is similar to the iOS link posted a few months ago.
win8_weblink.png
win8_weblink.png (11.18 KiB) Viewed 8016 times
To add it, open Internet Explorer and go to http://www.virtuadopt.com
On the bottom of the screen, near the right, you will see a thumbnail icon. Click it once and click "Pin to Start"
If you want, you can change the display name. Finally, click Pin to Start

You will now see it at the end of your list of apps. You can then drag it around to wherever you want to easier access.

As you may have noticed, some of the forums have been moved around. No forums have been deleted, but some are moved to a different place for better organization. We have also made two new forums:

Accomplishments and Statistics for threads like shinies you recently hatched, how many times you have deposited something in the Trade Point, etc.

General Pokemon Discussion for threads pertaining to the Pokemon franchise but not Virtuadopt specifically.
