My experience of the new forum

Thanks!

Yes, this is a characteristic, or failing of the plugin that re-formats bbPress. It overlaps the button-shaped topic and article count columns with the other text, and does not look so good.

I'm going to turn it off for 24 hours and see if people prefer the older version. Perhaps I can improve that with CSS changes.

OK - we are running using the default forum look and feel. The main problem I have with it is that the fonts are too small, and I've heard from some of you that this is also a problem. I'll work on fixing that issue today and hopefully have a solution in place.

Mike, looks better. Thanks

Mike, seems we cannot turn to page 2 here
cheers

OMG - so we can't see past post 12???

I'm stunned. I guess that gets in line ahead of bumping the font size!

Meantime, keep your threads SHORT! :)

Hi
I can go between pages 1 and 2

Now that Julie mentions it, there are some numbers and an arrow in the bottom right corner, under the last article on each page.

Easy to miss with the small fonts, which I'm still working on making larger.

Got it, thanks

Hi everyone,

I spent a little time making the various fonts for the forum larger overall, and changing the style of the group titles as per Greg's request. I think this is pretty close to readable and usable. Please let me know if I've gone a little too far, and you'd like things smaller again.

BTW - someone - Ganna perhaps? - mentioned that the spellchecker is not working. Is this still the case? It seems to be working at this moment for me. Perhaps the issue is that the spell checker is working in your native language, rather than English.

Always interested in addressing problems as you find them, if possible. For example, is the 512 KB limit on attachments sufficient? It's easy to fix if so.
