Wwwwwelcome back!

Post by Rommeltje »

I finally got the upgrade to work! :whoop:

As you can see, quite a bit has changed. Some things will be forever, other things I'm still working on.

Most obviously is of course the new forum style. Unfortunately, our trusty old style turned out to be incompatible with this version of the forum software (or so they say, I'll try and see what happens if I install it anyway). So I had to find a new one, and the choices weren't great.

I still have to tweak some things, but for now, this is what we're stuck with. If anyone can find a beautiful forum style (it has to be compatible with phpbb 3.2), don't hesitate to let me know.

Other things may be different too, I haven't had much time to check out everything myself yet.

Either way, I'm very happy I finally succeeded. :D Everyone can start posting again. There's no risk of losing anything anymore.

I actually liked it more on my old tablet last night, but here on pc it takes some getting accustomed.

Welcome back indeed .. !

We could do with the old "View new posts" link somewhere on the main page, not sure I like having to look for orange lights at every single topic head to see what's been posted since my last visit .... :hmm:

Edit : Ignore me ... finally found it ... hiding under "Quick Links" ... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I've split all the posts about issues with the new design into a new topic.
