Administrators Netduma Admin Posted August 30, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 30, 2018 As is no doubt immediately obvious, we have upgraded the forum. This upgrade is very important as it will allow us to add a lot more features to improve the community experience. One small change that will affect some of you is that Display Names and Login Names have now been merged. So from now on please use your display name to login. Your password will be unchanged. Files are still being loaded in the background throughout today so there will still be some functionality that is to come. Also our web artist will be redesigning the colours to give it that Netduma look and feel so don’t be surprised when it all gets a lot darker and redder in here! Let us know what you think and if there is anything you would like us to improve. Thanks for your support, The ND Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennon Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 It is looking real nice, I use a dark theme plugin for Waterfox so it is great, maybe add a dark theme for everyone that does not at sometime 😀 The emoji's are plentiful ⌨️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zennon Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 And the shoutbox will be making a return for people to ask for help in when they should make a post in the forum so they can be told to do so? 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will definitely be bringing the Shoutbox back. We will be moving the forum to a new server in the near future to minimise disruption we will be getting everything prepared on the new server, including installing plugins like Shoutbox, whilst keeping this current server online. Once everything is looking good on the new server, we will point the domain name there. Tl;dr - Shoutbox and all that jazz will be coming very soon.

PharmDawgg Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Nice job on the new layout guys. I can't wait to see what all it has to offer. I just want to second the need for a dark theme. This bright white is hard on my old man eyes. 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG__DOG Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 The default text colour is white on a white background, so in messages the text is not visible unless highlighted. Very frustrating having to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simjc Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Dark Theme button selection needs to pop to the top of the page; not lurk at the bottom. Tweak need though on colour for quote blocks; when it shows you (your screen name) as being quoted, your name is dark blue/red, and just blends in.

Zennon Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 That’s in hand chaps. Standard mode is working really well on mobile, a massive jump in accessibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Admin Posted August 31, 2018 Author Administrators Share Posted August 31, 2018 Apologies all - just realised this whole News & Announcements sub forum was preventing replies from members. Only admins, mods and one bespoke beta group could post for some reason. I thought it was odd that only mods and testers were replying! I've fixed this mistake now.
