Saru 8,932 #1 Posted August 21, 2009 Our forum has now been upgraded to IPB 3, there's still a lot of tweaking and configuring to do however the majority of the update is complete. Please note that a conversion process is still ongoing to convert data from the old forum to the new one, as such you may find that the BBCodes in some of the content will not appear correctly at the moment. Please use this thread to ask any questions or to report any errors or bugs you might find. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Purplos 877 #6 Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) Umm... ummm..... where is "View New Posts" or whatever it was? That's the only way I ever read this forum. Oh, never mind. I found it. I thought that link was just for RSS. Edited August 21, 2009 by Purplos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grither 4 #9 Posted August 21, 2009 I liked the old lay out better. I prefer darker site backgrounds it is easier on the eyes, my eyes at least anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Space Commander Travis 50,164 #10 Posted August 21, 2009 Fixed, thats them all working now. And the quote function is as well. thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saru 8,932 #11 Posted August 21, 2009 Umm... ummm..... where is "View New Posts" or whatever it was? That's the only way I ever read this forum. Oh, never mind. I found it. I thought that link was just for RSS. For anyone else with this question, View New Posts is now View New Content on the top right next to the RSS icon. Two configuration options are also available for it in My Settings > General Settings down the bottom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gabe 1 #12 Posted August 21, 2009 I liked the old lay out better. I prefer darker site backgrounds it is easier on the eyes, my eyes at least anyway. I agree, the new design is too minimalistic for me and there's hardly any definition. In off-topic quotes don't have borders, has the code changed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saru 8,932 #13 Posted August 21, 2009 I agree, the new design is too minimalistic for me and there's hardly any definition. In off-topic quotes don't have borders, has the code changed? All quotes should appear like the ones in this thread, the ones that don't are down to the conversion process not having reached them yet. This issue will be fixed gradually over the next few days.
