I've noticed that the manual result submission page now only has one "Submit" button. Is this intentional?

Twas always thus. :)

It's new placement up top does make it more prominent, along with the larger "hey, click me" style.

You may have been thinking of when it was below the text box alongside the choose file/browse button if you wanted to upload a file.

Since both of those buttons were the same looking, that may be what you were remembering... besides the text in the button they were both the standard gray rectangles full of text.

I'm kind of wondering to myself now... what if you upload a file *and* paste in some text? That's a question for James... I presume one or the other gets processed first and the other doesn't.

For what it's worth, it *looks like* it processes the uploaded file and that's it. So... yeah, don't do both and expect it to do both. :) I put this info here for general purposes, not that any of us would try that.

I have never understood the speedometer at the bottom of the summary page.
what info is it trying to convey ? GHzD/D ?
why an analog dial ?
can you clean it up ?

Or "I'm looking at reports on LL results and want to then look at TF results".
Thanks for your response. I like the above idea very much! It solves the biggest issue that I have with the menus.

That has bothered me from early days here.
Apparently it is a measure of production versus deemed capability of registered equipment.
It's usefulness is entirely voided once an unspecified GPU with even a little grunt is deployed.
I don't know enough history as to who loves that baby.
A broader question might be whether any perhaps alternative representation of anything useful from readily available production statistics would work better.

Overall, looking quite good

Some (minor) remarks:
  • I don't think we need mourning borders all over the place (e.g. Summary Details, Stats for the last 365 Days, etc.) Just leave them away...
  • Remove all borders in tables. (Or draw them in white...) This is not a spread sheet. Reduce font size in table headers to "normal"
  • Remove 3d effect from "CPU time by stats type". The third dimension carries no added value/information.
  • Put reading instruction and comments atop of tables ("All timings are in milliseconds - lower is better", "blip has xxx results in the last 365 days (only 100 are shown).
    To keep the database size down,...")

Hopefully the string "username<br>logged in" won't change. mfloop.py was looking for "username logged-in" and it broke with the change today/yesterday. I've modify the script and TeknoHog has a pull request waiting :)

Not true, the original legacy manual result form not only had two submit buttons, but was two separate forms, one POST method for file upload, one GET for the copy-paste textarea, which limited copy-paste manual submissions to around 4kB.

As you guessed: when the form is submitted, if you uploaded a file that is processed, otherwise whatever's in the textarea is processed; it's mutually exclusive.

But one request: is it possible to get the cake chart without TF? Both cake charts ('stats for the last 365 days' and 'lifetime stats') are big red buttons with some colored spots at my summary (GPU-TF'ing...).
Pie charts, what be they? See nothing at all...

Thanks. I was wondering about that myself too.
