Forum Upgrade

As you may have noticed, we've just upgraded our forum software to the latest major version. There are some new features that come with the new software, and we'll highlight these over the next few days.

Just like any major upgrade there are likely to be teething issues, but we'll work through these as quickly as possible.

If you've got any bugs to report or constructive feedback, please post them in this thread and we'll take a look.

Not sure if the similar threads section is needed, other than digging up old crap

I disagree.

might be worth giving it a try for more than 5 minutes

Didn't crash on Sunday as usual did it? Seems fine to me

I always thought you took that Sunday afternoon spell to punish us!

The novelty, oversized quotation marks block out part of the actual quote.

Like the upgrade overall. The mobile version is much friendlier, and the alert/messages bar moving with the content is great.

Is there any chance of getting page navigation numbers at the top of threads and subforums as well as the bottom? I read threads backward frequently, as I'm sure most others do here, and it's now more work to scroll from the bottom up, then back to the bottom to change pages.

Can you show me a screenshot please.

Only thing I dont like is losing the page numbers / last page option from thread menu. Only thing that really feels like it's missing to me. I often jump to last page of threads to begin with or when a lot of posts were made since i was last active.

Just regarding the background image (currently origin themed)

Are there a few different options down the track?

Also is there an option to turn off the search bar at the top of the page when scrolling?

Need a dark mode.

Its just too hard on Fangs' eyes.

 

[Get Rid of The Donkeys]

I like it.

 

[Sans Souci Saint]

We can help with that if you need

Nah. It’s fine. No big deal.

Need a dark mode for those of us in our mums basement, the light hurts our eyes

 

[TooheysNew]

Dark mode is on the list, but it's not a priority at the moment.

I think you need to flick a switch to enable signature editing.

Try now, mate.

Wow the emoji option makes me feel like a teenager or a middle aged woman.

Hate to break it to you, but you are a middle teenaged woman.
