Forum Upgrade

[aza013]

the setup of the forum at this point is a lot like the VR4 club's set up.
it very user friendly to navigate around.

I even like the "online" setting under the avatars

wow quick reply feature, the forum is looking good, im going to miss the left hand menu though, and the classic dark ftoaustralia theme, good work ben!

Not bad for a 6 hour turn around

I would help Ben, but wouldn't want to fluck it up.

Finding a slight lag myself with quick reply weirdly :S

[Gholdwayne]

going to experiment on what new things the new forum can do


-on the reply editor, that youtube button, does that only take youtube videos ?

[-Nighthawk-]

I am a part time website developer so can help with themes as needed

ben can i suggest a 'members ride sub forum section' where a member can start a thread of their own... add updates of mods, pictures, questions relating to ongoing mods

i can provide an example if youd like off another forum... i believe giving members an opportunity to showcase and update mods inside their own thread will keep interest high within the forum

OTHER THEN THAT... the forum is looking awesome, i do miss the random picture box though

Interface is much more user friendly, good job

Looking forward to the new theme, if you need graphic work for the site, my brothers a L337 photoshop g33k...not sure if he knows too much about css though.

Thats a fail.

You want youtube, simply add the tags around a direct youtube link

ie

Code: Select all
