This is a free message board run by ONE MAN and a handful of wonderful moderators. Point of the story is that things are moved around, but if you don't find what you are looking for right off the bat, please take the time to slow down and look around, the link you need might be right there, just over to the left or right. Take a look around before sending a message as Mike has his hands full as it is, so we should be able to do our part to figure it out!



Yup, that about sums it up--thanks, 2bits!!!

Take your time, Mike, because you have to be tired. It looks great.

Why have we got "Information: this board is currently disabled" at the top of each page? An inquiring mind needs to know ;)

Looking good. I didn't read all the posts in this thread but trying it out and also signed in through tapatalk on my tablet. I really need to get back in the habit of participating in the forum.

Alfred,

You need to get the Tapatalk application. It's not free but worth the price. The new forum plus Tapatalk work incredibly well together.

Take care,
Tom.

OK, just to confirm the TouchBB Lite that I was using to access from the IPhone on the old list won't work for this one?

Thanks, AL.

Correct Al,

When we switched to the new forum, one of the objectives was to use tapatalk, which supports many more devices than touchBB. Tapatalk is very polished, and I think once you try it you'll like it! :thumbsup:

Great forum Mike, thanks for all the hard work put into it. :thumbsup:

Suggestion, any way to add Topic Preview - "Hovering over topic links will show text from the first post of that topic"
http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/topic_preview/

Currently when you hover over a topic with your mouse it only shows "No unread posts", Other forums have the topic preview and it sure is a nice little feature.

Keep up the great work. :)
