The new forums
Hello everyone
So yeah, the forums were down for a few days. This is because I was updating an install from phpBB2 to phpBB3. Turns out that it was a giant pain in the arse. The amazing, wonderful Skhmmxi was an absolute saint and helped with the whole thing, everyone buy him presents and pay him compliments.
So, there'll probably be teething problems, and the look isn't quite what I want it to be right now (obviously), but I wanted to get things back up and running as soon as possible. In theory the new code will make everything more secure, faster and generally more ace. Thoughts, queries, problems, in this thread please.
Welcome back.

Good to be back, I've been doing unhealthy amounts of work this week, poor show.

Re: The new forums
It looks nice, I was thinking the forums could do with a re-vamp.

It's not just you but I'm not sure whether it's the fact I'm on my phone that is making it difficult.marowak wrote:I like it - the grey on grey does make it a bit hard to see some of whats going on - but that might just be me - well done kenny!
So far it seems ok.

Re: The new forums
FRANK- Just a trivial thing I noticed - the 'forum' link on your splash/home page no longer works as it appears the URL must contain the www. now - the link on the blog page works fine
Same for anyone else with the old site bookmarked.

Re: The new forums
When a post is made by a friend, it's highlighted. When you add someone as a foe, their posts are collapsed and you have to click on the posts individually to see what they've written (it's an alternative option to flooding them out with cat pictures, though not necessarily as much fun).marowak wrote:i have also started adding people as 'friends' not sure what this will do .... no foes yet ...
