Heads Up: Forum Software Update

[eigen]

Hey all!

I'm going to be updating the forum software shortly. It should be a simple process, and things are all backed up, but wanted to give a heads up in case I run into challenges.

Update: Forum software has been updated, working on restoring custom themes.

[eigen]

Update: One of the forum skins we were using (Dani) is no longer compatible. I have added another new theme (ProCurve), and am happy to add any others people want:

As a reminder, you can change your theme from your Profile -> Look & Layout

Update: Fixed an issue where quotes in signatures were not showing up properly.

Please post here as you run across bugs or issues.

Looks great!

Thanks!

I did notice that the signature quote you have now includes all the text including the code.

Thanks, eigen! Looks very professional.

Looks like it went pretty smoothly. Now trying to get used to the new look.

Thanks to our admin folks for doing this! I've used message boards with similar features.

Thank you eigen!

Oh look, a new formatting toolbar!

Looks like it went pretty smoothly. Now trying to get used to the new look.

My memory on old look is failing me, but check through the link of possible themes (https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?action=themes) and see if there are some that look more like what you remember, and I'm happy to get them uploaded.

Sadly, the exact old theme (Dani) we had for mobile / responsive stuff is no longer compatible and seems beyond my ability to update.

I added the "Radiohead" theme, that seems maybe a bit closer to the old one.

Looks good--thank you, eigen!

Thank you!-- BTW, what is a 'custom theme'?
