PermalinkThe site is looking lovely! It's really exciting to be playing around with it.
I noticed just a couple of very minor issues that might be worth modifying. Apologies if these are already listed in the tracker and I missed them.
First, when I initially set up my account and went to edit my profile, the text boxes for both "email address" and "profile details" were pre-filled with my email address, even though the "profile details" box is actually asking for my location. Perhaps that box should be blank until manually filled in?
Secondly, opening links from Growstuff pages in a new tab seems to be a bit broken when using Firefox. I normally open links in a new browser tab using command-click. This works fine on Growstuff when I use Safari. But when I use Firefox 19.0.2 (on Mac OSX 10.6 or Ubuntu 12.10), command-click doesn't work for links on Growstuff. No new tab is opened, nor does the link load in the current tab instead. I don't have this issue on other websites, so I think it's something specific to Growstuff. I can open a link in a new tab using control-click-select-option-from-little-menu, but that's extra clicking between me and the page I'd like to read.
Thanks for all the awesome work!

The profile settings thing… this actually seems to be a browser thing which happens to some people and not to others, and has to do with your browser trying to guess stuff and getting it wrong. We're not sure why it does this but we're aware of it and are trying to figure it out. I'll raise a tracker bug for it. Here you go: on settings page, email address is pre-filled in location field
I, too, have noticed this in Firefox! I thought it was my Firefox playing up. I have no idea what it causing it but I will ask around and see if anyone knows. … OK, just googled, and it seems to be a a known problem with Bootstrap which is the CSS (i.e. page layout) framework we're using. And it's https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/pull/7211 (last comment date 3 days ago, and it's the Easter weekend). So I'll keep an eye on that, and we will update Bootstrap as soon as they fix it. Which hopefully won't break anything else ;)
