New look to the forum
Posted: Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:21 am
The FreedomYachts.org forum is about to undergo a change in how it looks. This will be a minor change and won't effect functionality, but the layout will be a bit different.
Q: What does this mean to you?
A: Not much, except that you'll notice a new look to the forum when you access it online.
Q: What's the major change that I'll see?
A: You can only access the "View New Posts" and "View Active Topics" links from the Board Index. These links don't appear when you're reading posts. To see these links you need to click on the "Board Index" link which appears under the Freedom logo.
Q: Why are you doing this?
A: Unfortunately I need to make this change because the "skin" (a skin controls how the forum is presented) which I've been using for the forum is no longer supported and all new development is being targeted towards a different skin. I need to make this change so that I can easily update the forum software to take advantage of new features and address security issues.
Q: What should I do if I have questions or problems?
A: Please post any issues as a reply to this topic.
