Updated forum

[adnedarn]

Sorry for the delay! The upgrade went fast, but there were so many things in the database and indexes that needed to be updated... It took over 9 hours just to rebuild the search indexes for the new forum format! I had no idea... Anyway, here they are, likely imperfect but I will continue to work on them as time goes by. So if you get an error a couple times then it stops it is probably me changing something.... Features may popup and or go away while I check their settings.

If you see something that's wrong, please post. If there is a setting that you think is wrong, please post. Etc etc. The skin will also get worked on, I grabbed this one just so we were not on the default blue ugly thing....

Thanks everyone!
Andrew

I can't find the chatbox...

 

[Smitty]

back in business!

 

[adnedarn]

...chat box is almost here It's the first thing I'm putting back. I really wanted to get the forum open for you all so it's really rough right now. ha

 

[mikefallen13]

Yay! It's back! I was staring to get worried

 

[Peatmoss]

Indeed! I would die without TF!

*Hyperbole*

Awesome! And yeah, the forum is a bit more valuable than the chatbox lol... However, the chat box is one of the better features of the site. Really enjoy it.

I love the new layout. I thought it wouldn't be as good, but it's not unappealing. The TF Banner at the top of the homepage isn't working though...

Looking good!

I like it! Thanks for the update!

 

[Thagirion]

Glad it's back. Yeah got to get used to the new navigation. I like these colors except for the black background and the new big envelope icons are odd. I like the way our avatars and posts look now. More organized.

Cool, it's back on, new and improved. Saved my weekend

How come we can't send private messages or use /me coding in the chatbox?

 

[Zacham3]

I like the layout of the old one but I can easily get used to this one

 

[fdfederation]

Are you going to bring back the old graphics/colors? I thought the old forum looked quite nice, especially the green VFT logo.

"Video Game Forums, Forums for Mature Gamers"

chat not working on my mobile (ipod touch, IOS 5 probably safari browser). It is using an easier to read layout on the mobile

 

[adnedarn]

yes, it uses a mobile version, see if you can change it on the lower left of the forum when viewing it from mobile

 

[Nepenthesis]

Using the full site is slow. How do I get back to the mobile version?

 

[Thagirion]

I'm not having any troubles now. But I'm viewing with the default colors because I can't stand the black background. The green is great just doesn't go with black. Would be nice to have several color layouts to choose from so there would be a preference for all.

Looks fine to me, certainly easier on my eyes than the old one. I even zoomed the text down from 120% to 110%. Now if people would stop using large bold fonts in the chatbox everything will be ok.

PS: you can use the default VB4 color scheme.
