    Default New forum code is IN - report issues here!

    Hey everyone;
    The new code is IN. I'm sure there are going to be some issues that come up (a bunch of forum members have been beating this code up for the past week, but there's always stuff they don't catch). Here are the issues I'm aware of as of this moment:

    - Some functions may not be available in other templates; the subRed template is where all the new toys are installed. As Joe mentioned, functions will get migrated to the other templates once we've gotten all the kinks worked out of subRed
    - There's a bug with mail notification in the Game room; this one may take a little longer to hunt down, so be patient

    Anything else is fair game; please post it here so we don't have to hunt through the forums to find out what's broken. Have fun with the new digs!

    I can't get to the forums through the main page, just throught the recent posts. Looks very good so far though.

    I want medals too!

    For those of you using themes other than subRed, you may need to switch for the time being. Not all of the new functions were coded into the other templates (for example, you can't currently access your profile in Chronicles because the phot mod needs to be applied there).

    Hmm...looks a little squashed, but that's about it for me. Guess it's time to mess around with some of this stuff.

    Well you see, that would work just dandy, except that the board theme selection is in the profile settings. Ha ha.

    Very minor, but I see all of our ranks have switched back to the standard text (cherry, peach, etc.).

    I'm guessing that's because of the shop...you'll probably have to purchase a rank now perhaps?

    Erm, the Bea Arthur/Esther Rolle filter has been disabled on the Watched Topics page. Just in case that's a priority.

    Still works here!

    The font looks kind of different...not worse...just somewhat different!

    Thanks!

    Few things... Both visual and broken things I found since it seems like opinions can be said here too... if not, please excuse me

    Shop - Lottery - Jobs all don't work. I don't know if they are supposed to or not.

    A visual thing -- for "Games" the purple text on the red background is nearly impossible to read for me. White please? Or something else?

    My profile seems to be fine.

    Board Announcements above the forums look really out of place to me... especially seeing stuff that are announcements from other forms like the Monday MAME club. Personally, it just looks cluttered. Again, not really a problem, but one announcement would be a lot better to me.

    I don't like the Red / Black scrollbar scheme at all. In fact, I despise it. I think the old one (in the other posts which is still there) looked about a million times better. Also, I would personally appreciate it if the regular site scroll bar wasn't messed with.

    At the bottom of the page, where is says "Display posts from previous:" it has a black background -- should be red with black text?

    The messages that have been red turn a slightly darker shade of gray. Could they be red again?

    That it! For the most part I like it, and I'm not just being a stickler for tradition, but the site just seems to be a lot "louder" than it was before...

    Also, is it me or are the forum icons skewed?

    Naa, the location just changed, in your profile instead of rank look for -

    "Custom Title:
    When used, this will add an additional user title to your posts. There is a 45 character limit."

    Aside from the previously mentioned "squashed icons" and the rank description, the site looks great!

    Good job, all!
