Excellent work.
XenForo (if I correctly remember BrettC's reply to my comment regarding upvotes/downvotes etc from a while back).
Eg: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?forums/europa-universalis-iv.731/
Excellent work!
Although, on mobile, it looks the same. Lol
Already spotted the PvP and Aliens sections.

I'm one of those people who instinctively dislikes layout changes no matter how good they are, but I'm sure it will grow on me. Good work
I usually HATE layout changes [mad]
But I like this

Uh oh... that might be a bad thing. [big grin]That's nearly an ETA. You're slipping Brett
Ultimately comes down to when XenForo2 goes to a stable release. Once that happens, we'll begin the work there.
You may need to use the standard editor mode rather the WYSIWYG editor. If you're using Chrome mobile, they recently began (in the past year anyways) stripping out workarounds for common HTML "whoopsies" - few of those whoopsies exist on the vBulletin default WYSIWYG editor.
One can wish and hope, right?
Oh dang, you got us... 2.4 update was the forums, jokes on you guys! :x
If mobile theme reactivated, click "Full Site" at the bottom center, then scroll back to the bottom on the desktop themes and select a theme from the bottom left.
Will consider it.
Do note the vbulletin mobile theme is not supported, and whatever supported features it has, are given as is. It was turned back on by request.
Actually, any forum ID over 200 are new forums. Every other forum was either a move or rename.
In the upper section: Aliens, PvP, Modes of Elite and News Bulletins are new additions.
In the lower section, we now have an extension to the Player Tools and API Discussions section.
Dangerous Discussion will still exist. It's not going anywhere. Bumping other forums up and organizing them was the key goal.
These forums, all but a few, existed well before these changes.
Problem with a catch-all forum, threads would FLY through the DD forum daily. Even after bumping threads shown per page to 50 - it simply went to the point of "why bother" for new users.
A side effect to the forum organization that is showing this morning is that the server load has been halved, which may allow for snappier page load times.
Correct, if you view https://forums.frontier.co.uk/forumdisplay.php/29-Elite-Dangerous - you can see all the relocated (and a few additions) forums there.
Actually, I just noticed a small issue. FoE, WoE, and DD are all sharing the same organization ID of 10. Will tweak those.
You can ignore sections? Nice!
Yes I like the new format and the new/many sub forums - makes everything easier.
Toxic threads in the "Mode" or "PvP" forum, Alien spoiler threads in Alien thread...looks just fine to me.
Go to the section in question then its forum tools/ignore..Ive had the Xbox one on ignore for a while now due to some ashhattery over there onnce now I dont see any posts from that forum. Just hoppeing as it was pointed out a lot in the last sdc thread that two ships shooting each other allbeit one with no guns is pvp that those sort of threads will end up in the pvp section.
@Jason, I shared your concerns, most especially about the spectre of brisk forced movement of new threads out of DD removing a topical central hub for 'Everything relating to Elite Dangerous.'
However this morning I've had a positive exchange with Brett here...
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...into-morning-of-the-26th?p=5944895&highlight=
...which hopefully indicates that's not the intention and that many new DD threads can still expect a reasonable starting life there, even if subsequently moved out to the appropriate sub if they become long running.
I found Discussion! Capital D. I'm not going to declare I found discussion on a forum. That would be a little daft.
But this is not unlike coming home and finding your girlfriend has been rearranging all furniture. Takes a while to get used to.

Can we still blame TJ here or has that been moved to mode discussion?
Why do I get the tone that the PvP crowd is not happy having their own forum?
Really hope it's not some "troll, bait, shock, and salt" thing.

Well, seems to me that if they genuinely want to have interesting and informed discussions about PvP then they should be delighted.
It's the small subset that want to do nothing but troll that are going to be put out by this. Still, never mind eh?
Always nice to see changes
It's everything to do with having their threads moved out of the spotlight of the main forum.
