Forum Upgrade

[GrandOldTeam]

Hi everyone,

Apologies for the scheduled 40 minute downtime today.

It was necessary to upgrade our core forum software.

This was a big'un with a lot of moving parts - so please use this thread to flag any probs.

In the immediate, your style choices (day vs night) will have likely changed. You can change this back in the footer link, or within your preferences;

Thanks to @mattw who helped massively by setting up a separate test site environment and being on hand to help prevent me breaking the whole thing.

Change is good but sometimes bad

I guess I'll set it back to night mode. Thanks Boss, keep up the 'meh' work


edit: seriously though, kinda freaked out when I realised I'd dumped my Twitter and had no way of checking wtf was going on earlier

There's no page numbers next to thread titles on mobile, struggling to work out how to get that back but sure will sort it soon.

The reaction feels a bit passive aggressive.

Thanks. And a wow one?

Convinced one has snook in there.

Is snook a word?

ffs. Heads battered.

Think cuz the thumbs up is different from before (RIGHT????) and the older reactions look a bit off because of it?

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Updated that thumbs up/like emoji.

Was the one I've just put on the same as it was?

Yes, believe that is the old "like"

Snuck is the past tense of sneak

Thanks for everything you do, appreciate you putting the original "like" back in

On android, holding down on the like button to get the reaction menu still works but it also brings up the "right click" menu. Can just back out of the menu easy enough so not a disaster but still mildly annoying. Otherwise, upgrade looks good to me.

If you don't mind mate try and grab us a screenshot so I can ask people to help fix it.

No biggy but the quoted posts in dark mode don't seem as clearly defined when scrolling a thread

Just kind of blends in with the reply. Might be just me tho

Also I could be imagining this is different than before ...
