Blues,

We've just upgraded the forums platform.

It's quite a software upgrade, and given I largely wing this site with a very limited tech nous - there will be some inevitable hiccups.

Please report any issues you encounter in this thread. Would appreciate not clogging this so just technical issues, not general issues like - Everton still having Ashley Williams.

Logged back in this morning and suddenly I find it a lot better than I did yesterday. Not sure if you've made more changes or if it's just me getting used to it but I think it looks great now. Also I notice the alerts are back in yellow, which is nice.

You want honest opinions I suppose and I thought you had it in a pretty good place before.

Good parts - the icons at the top of the post box - the amber highlighting is very nice. Is it quicker? I don't notice these things but it feels it.

Bad parts - the font maybe? Looked cleaner before - especially the bold thread titles on the main pages... Dunno you get used to it like the last skin you put on it.

Hey any chance of looking at the screenshots of the different upgrades since '07?

Speed/stability was a big reason why we had to make the upgrade.

The old release we was on was software released in 2011.

Just updated the font - it should now be the same as it was? - still playing with font sizes.

https://web.archive.org is useful for seeing how things was.

Not liking having to scroll down to reach the navigation buttons for each thread.

Other than that and the warnings history disappearing, I'm okay with the changes so far.

Warnings should now be back.

Agree on the navigation buttons for each thread being at the bottom for mobile - looking at a solution to include at the top. I found one but it was clunky.
