Just last week I thought I had finally got the joke about 'we'll do it after the board upgrade'. I figured it was like waiting on the free t-shirts or quantum computing

Nice work, sexy shiny modern-ness

The post counts had to be resynced, which means if the post doesnt exist in the database it doesnt count. Alot of the count came from the old ubb which never had actual posts associated with them in the phpbb incarnation of the database. I have the old DB running so it might be possible to bring those back.

If enough peeps want left side poster info the template can be modified

Man I would kill to be able to parse back through the old UBB content if it still exists anywhere. I checked in with Raw but he had a config-only backup with no content

There's a lot missing from the pages that are still reachable via the Internet Archive.

In case anyone wants to submit theme issues or even contribute to theme development, it's hosted here on gitlab: https://gitlab.com/quake3world/quake3wo ... hpbb-theme

Edit:

I think bbcode is disabled in signatures right now? Would be neat to have that back.
LEM Forum is going to need back the [lvlshot] tag for legacy support, alternatively those tags need to be replaced by img tags in the database.
Avatar size limit is 6KB; I think that must have been more previously. The avatar that I used in the old forum version has 24KB

Yeah, user images have definitely got to go back on the left. I'm glad the site has mainly retained its design otherwise.

I’ll agree it is counter intuitive and requires one extra eye movement before reading a post but I kinda like it on the right.

Is it correct that the forum layout is screwed up on mobile? I’m on iOS.

The archived forums are displayed in full, but the regular forums are not and you can’t scroll them. I can only reach certain forums if I hold my phone horizontal.

Yeah, bbcode doesn’t work and neither do any of the old tags like levelshot and youtube.

The lvlshot was all custom code afaik as well as having customizable font colors.

Found this example for .\UBB\cgi-bin\ubb_library.pl

Posted: **Sat Jul 20, 2024 6:02 pm**

Oooh, something new ^_^

Edit: I see my post count is way off too, but don't really give a f*** to be honest, just saying

Posted: **Mon Jul 22, 2024 7:45 am**

So, why the big upgrade? Do we have some anniversary stuff coming up?

There's gonna be a huge party at John Romero's for Q3W members only, subscribe for further details

Done!

Y'all moved to the right politically

where's Ax?

Taking any crypto donations? Where is the Q3 NFT?

Woah! Now avatars are allowed for newcomers and users with less posts.
On the one hand, that's nice, it removes the addiction of having more posts to increase from rank to rank.

The forum source code is private, right? Since no one can view for security reasons.

On the other hand, I was looking for the possibility of getting emails from a subscribed topic, that's we talked here: https://www.quake3world.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=55048

Gonna test the subscribed topic here and the other one. Hope it works.

You'll note the last post in said thread is shaft (admin) telling us that all email functionality board-wise does not work.

I see. It's a pity for emails, but we can see the notifications in our forum profile, it popped up one when I logged in again.

Trying to edit/post in the topics we had (now are in Archived forums) isn't possible.

Thanks a lot, cityy and DooMer!
Another hard YES for the avatars being on the left site, if possible, pretty please.
Also I'd love to see [lvlshot] working again [[as well as bbcode in signatures]].

EDIT: I just realised that I can enable bbcode via the User Control Panel, awesome. Crossed that off my list.

Posted: **Fri Aug 09, 2024 5:27 pm**

Yay! I'm not a mod anymore. Rarely here these days anyway.

Yep, raises hand for avatars being on the left side and thanks to those responsible

I have noticed a slightly different design. What happened? It looks... different. This is nice, and at the same time quite scary, since I'll have to get used to a new layout.

(don't mess with me, I know what I said, don't gaslight me, cuz that's not gonna work)

Posted: **Sun Aug 25, 2024 3:23 pm**

I've noticed some things right away. Colours and text customization doesn't work. Some members don't have their profile pictures (my guess is the so called ranks are now gone?). Custom BB codes do not work. I'm assuming that they're going to be returned some time later when the migration is finished?

How do you send someone a dm now?

Posted: **Fri Sep 13, 2024 11:03 am**

I would love all lvlshot tags to be converted to img tags (because now no old images are working) and just never go back to lvlshot.

And also add "back" the quick reply button.

I believe I saw a recent comment that private messaging (DM's) were turned off, not 100% positive of that though so don't quote me on it
