The new version is probably better at adapting to different device screen sizes.

Yes no email notifications on my end.jgarvas wrote: ↑Sun Mar 05, 2023 12:34 am As of around 12:30am Sunday morning - I believe the forums are moved over the new hosting facility and fully upgraded.
Check them out. Post any immediate issues as a response to this post.
Somethings I know may not work:
- The logo is the default phpBB logo. I'll get to that
- The forums might not be emailing anyone.
- Other odd issues may appear.
1 issue the new setup doesn't show that there are new posts in individual forums.
The old setup would show on the far right side of ea forum the date of the latest post.
Now you have to go into ea forum to see if there are any new posts or threads.

I think there is something missing for rendering certain images. Going to have to look into that. I've seen it doing that somewhere else too with registrations and not showing the "prove you're a human" logo.

Contrary to a popular belief when I brag about OFCC accomplishments I'm not looking for your thank you or personal recognition. I'd much prefer you send me an email telling me when you are going to get involved in doing what I've been doing since 1999. We are only as effective as we make ourselves. We need the next generation of OFCC to step to the plate.
Is that you?

Re: Forums Update
I appreciate all the effort being put into this upgrade so I can continue to lurk on an improved message board 
Thanks to all involved for making it happen.

Re: Forums Update
We lost our visual post count, but is on our profile page.
Will there be a substitute for our Feedback scores that we lost?

Re: Forums Update
I'm seeing post counts.
Not seeing any avitars.
I see other member's OFCC banners under their usernames, but can't see mine.
Smiley choices, some are showing up as cartoons (sorry I don't know the proper term), others are the keypad faces.

Re: Forums Update
Nope sure don't Dave, strange how things are hit & miss for different members.
I have been using my phone during these talks here recently, let me fire up my tablet & see if anything is different there.

Re: Forums Update
I have some ideas on why some things are missing and I will try to put more time into getting us closer to normal.
Feeeback may be a challenge. We used a third party feedback addon for years and we upgraded from version 3.0.9 of the forums to version 3.3.10 - most of the third party plugins were completely incompatible to the new version.
For a number of reasons the upgrade was mandatory to move to new hosting. We were lingering on some pretty old versions of under the hood dependencies mostly because upgrades break things like feedback.
I am surprisingly pleased by how well this version works on a mobile device natively.
I will try to fix avatars tonight

Re: Forums Update
Ok posting from my tablet now, half of the smilies are showing on the right side they all were showing on my phone.
I'm now seeing post count, location & pm just like before any changes, now on my tablet i don't see my avatar but my phone it shows.
So there are a couple different things between my phone & tablet, have not tried my laptop yet to compare there i don't use it much.
**Thank you for all your time & efforts Jeff, hopefully our input helps you in directions you need to look at.**
