At some point this week, maybe today, the forum is going to have a major software upgrade. We will also be changing the 'look and feel' slightly to make it all look a bit more up-to-date.
I'll try and warn you exactly when the downtime will occur, but it should only be a matter of a few hours. Thanks. Ben |

I found the New Post button at the bottom useful. But it has disappeared.

Sorry, unfortunately it is not going to be able to make a reappearance after all. The reason is as follows. It involves altering one more template. When we upgrade again in the future this means one more template change every time, meaning it takes longer and is more complex. Seeing as we now get someone else to do the software upgrades this means more complication and more potential for problems. I hope you can live with just the original 'new posts' button in the top bar for now!

Is that the same with the old "unread" icons that used to be bright red and stand out, but are now an insipid orange?

I do miss the older icons as well. They were an easier visual cue. I also thought they were more distinctive since other forums use this software. Maybe for the next rev?

Us old guys dont like change... but we'll get used to it. Mrs C's policy is to carry on regardless and tune out the moaning.

Speaking of change, how about changing the name of the "Rules for Engagement" section to the "Ben Commandments"

Ben,
Would it be possible for you to increase the capacity of the Private Messages inbox? Double the capacity from 40 messages to 80? Or at least up it to 50? |
