Title: Forum Upgrade
Post by: PxPlus on July 04, 2024, 11:05:06 AM
You may have noticed things look a little different.

This is because we upgraded our forum to enhance security and take advantage of the latest features offered by the forum software.

The biggest change is to the forum theme. We now have a theme that lets you customize the look and feel to your personal taste.

You can select between a Light and Dark theme mode using the button at the top of the screen to the right of the bell icon.

You can also customize the theme color by clicking the pallet icon at the top right.

Congrats for the new forum! I think we need to get used to this new interface, but looks better than the old one. I'm using the green money theme  :P

Good luck!

Hopefully the new forum app won't add extra linefeeds to my posts

And I won't have to edit them after posting

Let's see...

EDIT : it worked !!! :)

Is there a way to get something like the old singular "Unread Posts" button? With this new format, it seems I get to check the Alerts as well as the Updated Tops and Unread Posts under my avatar if I want to get all of the updates since the last time I checked.

Is there a way to search the forums and have it not include substrings ?  I'm trying search for "log" and it's including logic, catalog , dialog , technologies and etc.

You can change the theme by clicking look and layout after clicking your profile icon. Then select the SMF default theme curve2. This theme has the button at the top still. You will have to decide which theme you like better overall.

The forum software has a default mode where the search is not whole word. I can turn on whole word search but then you can't do partial word search. For now as I think it is more useful I have switched it to whole word search. If this ends up being worse overall I may switch it back.
