What do you think of the new forums?

I don’t mind changes that don’t take away from upgrades. Upstream is under active development and I’d like to bring down newest changes quickly and easily. So if changes don’t conflict with that I’m happy.

I’ve been working on a dark theme. But it feels very Corner House (if anyone remembers that place :smiley:)

A post was split to a new topic: Can’t access forum

New forum looks awesome guys!

I noticed last night that i could not open the new forum in game time. I will give more details tonight.Just a heads up

@Demented would be good if you can give me access to your closest RB so I can diagnose from there. I just want to be able to trace from your point of view. PM me login. If you have an OSPF RB nearby just tell me which and I can use that. No need to create login.

@Spaffy also has an issue. I’m going to try and look at it again tonight.

Thx for the all the effort Spin.

I like the clean modern look of the new forum but I prefer the way the old forum has everything organised visually.

On the whole I prefer the new forum.

I have a basic one avaiable. As far as I can tell it’s a site setting. Not a user setting. Wondering what @Wacko141 did? Must be some CSS hackery.

@Spin Yarp :slightly_smiling:

I have a theme that looks more or less like that. It’s just really dark? I mean it looks like it might be a Metallica fan site?

Can you play around and post pics with a bit lighter colours? Once we have something a little less Death Metal Black we can try it for a week on the live site. Just need the colour values you used to add to site setting.

Or find a discourse instance with colours you like and we can borrow those.

Hi, I tried to attach a pdf file to a post and it would not allow me. Only images are supported.

Is that a forum setting that needs changing or am I overlooking how to attach files? (not inline images)

Forum setting. Fixing.

PDF allowed now. You may need to refresh the page.
And turn on your virus scanners.
