any chance that in the right hand column of the main forums page, when it shows you who posted last it could also give the name of the topic?
so you can click on the topic of the guy who posted last like the old forums?

thanks in advanced

Azzer is aware that it's not showing, and he's looking into getting that link back; it's not a forum option, so it'll take a while, he needs to play with the forum code.

Various topics about the new forums moved into one.

Shiny new forums.

Can't say the changes thrill me, but I'll get used to them, and nothing seems at all objectionable.

The only thing which seems slightly pointless is the offline/online button things underneath people's names. They take up quite a bit of space and look 'more important' - and definitely more prominent - than people's names, which doesn't seem right.

New forums yeah, but whats actually new? Apart from a few cosmetic changes I don't see anything ground breaking which could have warranted such an overhaul. Someone wanna fill me in? I'm not actually moaning or anything, doesn't bother me...but I expected the long awaited new forums to be a pretty major improvement.

There are ALOT of behind the scenes changes regarding how the forums work etc, and alot of changes regarding the management of the forums, I.E. mods admin etc.

The changes may seem cosmetic, but at the end of the day, forums are just forums, however, it's always best to be running the latest version of any given software, due to fixes in bugs, and security flaws.

I run some PHPbb3 Forums else where... and they are FAR easier to manage than PHPbb2.x.x

Moderators can merge topics again
That's worth it all.

Hey Mattheus, btw!

OK, after a little more browsing I'm seeing some small but rather neat changes thats fixed some little annoyances of the old system. Sooo I guess it's all good!

Hey Mattheus, btw!

Hey Charlie Been a while! We must chew the fat sometime on IRC!
