Upgrade Completed
Posted: December 15th, 2017, 5:52 pm
Don't you just love the look of a new forum? Okay, so this isn't a new forum, It's an upgrade and with this comes some changes and a few new options.
One of the changes made to the forum is where certain items are located. Members list link is now at the bottom of the page and under 'Quick Links'.
To access the User Control Panel, log out, and profile click the small arrow icon to the right of your name- located directly below Search. Beside this, you'll also see Notifications and Private Messages. Notifications are new and we all know what Private Messages are.
On the left side are some new options: Quick Links and an FAQ about the forum program. The FAQ should help to answer your questions so please look there before sending a message to the admins.
Clicking 'Quick Links' gives you a drop-down menu with these options:

The Team - takes you to a page that shows all the Admins and Global Mods
Our favorite smiles/emojis will have to be reinstalled along with updated versions of styles. Some styles have not yet or won't be upgraded and these will not work with this new version of the forum system. If you'd like, check out the collection at phpBB.com here: https://tinyurl.com/yawhcu6s
or web search for phpBB style - make certain the style is compatible with phpBB 3.2.1
If you have any questions about the upgraded forum system- please check the FAQ. I'm as new to this as you are so I'm relying on that page for the moment.
Thanks and happy posting-
