Please don't be alarmed whilst we make a few subtle changes to the look and feel of the forum during the course of the day.

Many thanks.

Opted out of Godaddy 'Real User Metrics' in order to clear any page load issues.

This is just a diary note, for reference only.

Create New Thread dialogue box now shows headings in correct colour i.e, white on blue.

Thanks to CruiseJunki for pointing this out.

The Prostack server will be undergoing maintenance at 1100 BST on 28th of June until 0300 on 29th June, so the forum won't be available during those times (0300-0700 Argentina time on 29th June).

I will never remember that for 10 days. But thanks for the warning -

There will be some downtime this morning as the forum is being moved to a newer and faster server, so please bear with us.

Further, the forum software will be updated to version 6.0 this week, so there will be another period of downtime, but I will confirm the details beforehand.

Thanks!

During the course of the day a major update to the forum software will take place - version 5.5 to 6.0 - so the forum will be in maintenance mode for a period of time with limited use, to protect the system from unintended interruptions.

Some styles and add-ons will be removed for compatibility reasons, including the theme, Radiant, since the developer hasn't seen fit to update the software.

When the update is completed, I will report back with any major changes.

Thanks for all your work, Splinter !

Here are some of the improvements to the forum software, including a dark theme:

WoltLab Suite 6.0 Released - WoltLab®

We're pleased to announce the release of WoltLab Suite 6.0, consisting of the powerful Core package and our 5 modular apps that enrich your community. A…

www.woltlab.com

The forum has now been updated to version 6.0.17 and you may notice some differences because many plugins/themes weren't compatible, so they had to be removed.

I'll update this thread when I have more information on removed plugins/themes.

Any problems, please feel free to report them.

Nice one Splinter ....

I like the new horizontal reaction choices, instead of the old vertical bar.

UK Man · October 7, 2024 at 11:19 PM

I don't see much difference. I'm using one of the wife's cast off laptops running Windows 8.1 right enough.

Rice · October 8, 2024 at 2:19 PM

Nice fresh look. I like it!
