Yes!

[Login] Auto-Focus on Login Form

Concise description:
  • When your browser loads the conquerclub website, you can automatically type your user name into its box without have to click on the username box

Specifics/Details:
  • You know how most websites, like google or facebook, when your browser loads them you can just start typing your username and then hit tab for your password? Not conquerclub, where I have to click on the user name box

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • I know this is a little thing, but it would save time. A little bit of time X thousands of users X thousands of logins would make it worth it

Most browsers come with a "Remember My Username/Password" option you can select. Then you never have to type in your username or password, all you have to do is click the login button.

I don't save passwords on my computer. And I use multiple computers, like my parents, room mates, and numerous computers at my school. So its not really that easy.

It's about making this site better and more user friendly.

I meant it was easy to implement the needed change.

I agree with this generally, but I will say that in my browser a single click of the TAB key puts the cursor in the username box. I'm using firefox

Sure its just a single click or hit of tab. But the cursor should already be there. This is easy, would improve the site, and if you wanted to do the math could literally save cumulative hours and days of peoples time.

I completely agree with this kind of logic. There's no reason for that extra click. And it seems like a simple coding fix. We're working on getting some improvements underway. I'm going to send this to SUBMITTED as it seems like a really quick and obvious fix. Is there any reason not to do this?

No, you're right, this is indeed a pretty easy one to implement and there's no other text boxes on the CC home page that would otherwise want to draw the focus.

Along with this, it would be great if this happened for all pages on the site.

For instance, when I'm inviting people to a tournament, I have to click on the text box for every invitation. It would be great for tournament organizers, if the cursor was already there.

Yes, this is a logical request and when we get to this in the queue I'll also ask about making this change for the invitation page. But you'll have to be specific about other pages and where the focus should be set.

It should be any page with a text box. The end.

This has (as far as I can tell) been IMPLEMENTED.

The autofocus on a reply should be set to the body text box not the title text box.

Why thank you sir.

This was one of my first log-ins back after a sabbatical due to school work. I was pleasantly surprised this change happened.

FYI, the autofocus has also been added to several other fields on this site. We've covered just about everywhere that there's a textbox. The only thing left is to get the Post Reply button to focus in the proper area.
