DansDeals will be under maintenance through 7/7 as we work to move over and improve our new site.
The DansDeals Forums should remain up throughout the transition.
You can access the legacy view here: http://www.dansdeals.com/all/
More features are still being added to the new site and the legacy site.
Thanks for your patience and all of your feedback!
New site going live tonight?
Great day for re-branding. Congrats and good luck
So all the hottest deals will stay between closed doors those hours…
What do you do if elal has tickets for $300 at 5pm?
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! dont switch!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey dan new site looks great. Will my browser remember my legacy view setting or will i have to re do it everytime?
@legacy view:
Thanks!
It should remember it.
Is there a way to undo the legacy view?
We’re still working on legacy mode toggling and other bugs, but you should be able to just visit http://www.dansdeals.com to view the new site.
There’s always Twitter, Dan!
on whom should we rely if there will be good big 4th of July deals??
Dan thanks for all
@uman:
Follow @DansDeals on Twitter, I’ll tweet if anything big comes up during the downtime 🙂
@Dan:will do thanks
@Dan:
You won’t skip on DDF
Looking forward!
looks great!
Legacy site doesn’t seem to be working.
Good morning
It’s really nice. need some small improvement.
Thanks Dan with a lot of Hatzlacha!
i think comments should be sorted the other way where newer comments are at top.
Mazel Tov Dan!
Ad meah v’esrim and beyond!
There are a lot if things that needs improvement.
1 of them there is no choice to access DDF from the mobile site
Check out the mobile menu… On the bottom..
Nice!!
The large fonts were really annoying. Looks like they were resized which is great because I can take in lots of info without constantly scrolling. Legacy view (mobile) looks like it still has those huge fonts…
Using a Samsung galaxy s3. In comments can’t open the full comment that are extra long. Hope this helps.
I turned that option off, let me know if it works for you now.
you better start posting more deals daily if u want us to adapt to this mess.. that includes SATURDAYS!. I dont know what $$$ u get out of this but there are many other websites that i found that do what u do… its a business, adapt and improve and go bigger or fall into obscurity. u have been warned! i dont like this display, prettier but less informative
Thanks dan! You are awesome!
It’s a free country…..you can browse whatever site you want……
Dan has been going at his pace and most people are happy with his way.
Very nice new website, however I’m used to the old site.
Can I still acces the old view?
Dan, I love your work and I greatly appreciate it! I wish you good luck! but I miss the old look…
Koi Lechoi!
Have you tried http://www.dansdeals.com/all/ ?
There will also be a “skip to next post” from that legacy view, but we’re still working the bugs out on that.
It’s not the same I wish we would still have the option to go to the old view.
One issue I found when using the mobile site. Sometimes I read a bit of the post and then want to go straight to the comments. Since the font is much bigger than the old site there can be a lot of scrolling (for a big post) to reach the comments. Perhaps a way to change font size?
Look for the comment icon after the title
Oh tx. I didn’t see that before.
Nice website, very cozy comfy. Good luck!!
new site reminds me of the black Friday sites that pop up.. good luck
Beautiful site! I will definitely start coming here more often I hated the old site!
Thanks!
Agreed, finally brought the site out of 2005 to 2017! Great improvement, loving it all around!
Looks too similar to other deal sites
big congrats!!team dan
Love the new look!
Dan, you put a nice delay in for the Credit Cards menu on the desktop version, but that delay also needs to be added to the Dans Deals Forum menu. Good job on incorporating everyones suggestions!
i liked the old site better
I’m having trouble accessing the legacy site from a PC.

Looks great! Fabulous logo. hatzlacha Rabba – thanks for all the wonderful deals and ideas.
Thanks!
Love the new site.
Anyway to have the comments numbered like the old site? It helped (well, me at least) when coming back to remember which comments I hadn’t read yet.
Can’t believe what a smooth transition it was to the new site. Yasher Koach!
Thanks!
I’ll ask, but I think the issue is that now that there are nested comments like this one, it will make the numbering rather confusing and all over the place.
Thanks tons Dan / JJ and all the others involved for the massive reconstruction of the site, it looks amazing and beautiful, and a special thanks for all the nice little features you implemented for our convenience, we can see how much thought and planning went into designing it.
(although I’m used to the old site, but I’m hopeful i’ll get used to the new interface as well)
one question, where is the settings icon that was on the beta site? will it be back?
Thanks!
There are lots of little features that we’re still working out the glitches on, including the settings icon. Stay tuned 🙂
Looks great, but I dont like the nav bar on top that opens when move mouse over. Is dizzying. Id rather click on it to open.
Looks great, Dan! Mazel tov! I know a ton of work goes into creating a new site. Years ago, I decided that embracing change makes life easier. Why waste energy fighting something if you cannot prevent it from happening? Obviously, I mean for things such as technology. Learning new things and new ways is good for the mind. The group will help each other learn to maneuver through the site, and it will feel like home again soon.
Nice job. It was long overdue.
Awaiting the upgrades to the forums
The new site is great! Obviously it will take some getting used to the new look… I’m from the biggest haters of change but this change seems. The new mobile site is a huge upgrade.
I do think the comment box should also appear at the bottom of the comments like the old site. It’s frustrating to need to scroll all the way back up after reading all the comments.
yOU CAN JUST CLICK THE “hOME” BUTTON ON YOUR KEYBOARD WHICH WILL BRING YOU ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP.
That’s a very good point. Thanks.
Looks awesome. How about HTTPS?
What exactly on this site requires ssl?
Nice new site. Dan just saw your brother live on the Baked Alaska youtube stream on July 4th. He gave you a nice shoutout!!
Lol, link?
Nice improvement. Larger Fonts please or at least greater contrast. I don’t mind scrolling, if I can see what it says quicker.
Congrats !
looks great
Nice new site. But since the change over I have been banned from using the forum. Can you assist?
Dan, I really think it would be a great idea to make the comments section darker. White is too plain and makes it hard to read the comments. Also, it would be a good idea to make the “Leave a reply/comment” section on the bottom (after the last comment), as opposed to making everyone scroll back up after reading through comments.
