SHP Forums

I suppose I will be upgrading to 3.

I use the CH (Categories Hierarchy) mod. (Unless that has been implemented into the vanilla phpbb version 3 now?)

Slowly getting there...

Import of forum layout is working.
Import of thread list is working.
Import of posts is still to be done.

Test/staging forum:

Jafa, is that in relation to the Sierra Gateway idea? Or is it something different?

Not sure what other ideas are going around... just figured it would be a good idea to back up the old forums before they closed (with the idea of importing into the sierrahelp forum).

I am completely open to ideas...

Nice, I like it.

Me too!

I may be in the minority here, and probably it's only because I was so used to the old one, but I still prefer the old one

I'm with Andrea on this one

It's not that different. I only merged the non-Sierra games forum and the misc tech forums together and moved the non-main series forums to one group.

I'm sure we'll learn to live with it

On another note - did I just see in another forum, that there's a quick Reply now?
And if so, why isn't there one here?

There are a few new features with this version of phpBB. I haven't gone through everything, yet.

I prefer BBS via dial-up. Oh wait... no, I don't.

The change is a minor one (like Collector said) and although it's always a bit jarring to see something different, I think we'll adapt very quickly. Honestly, I think it's a good change.

Here is a sneak peek at what I have been working on. This new style is based directly on the latest ProSilver. It is in keeping with the main site. It fixes a number of things that I was never able to resolve with the old SHP style. Most importantly it updates the style to address the various issues that have been creeping into the it with each new update of the board's software. Most importantly it should fix the CAPTCHA not showing when your account gets locked out by the spambots.

Awesome sauce.

It looks good!

Well done, Collector!
