Upgraded forum, broke custom theme
« on: 03/30/11 12:01AM »
Hey guys,

I decided to upgrade the software that runs this forum, but in doing so I broke the custom theme I created last year.

So until I have a little time to fix the custom theme, the website's going to look like this. I should have it back to normal later this week, or this weekend the latest.

I hope you can get it back to the custom theme soon.  This theme compresses the threads into a narrow column in the middle...hard to read and follow for us old folks...just ask XracerX  ;D

I have run a few forums and can feel your pain... at least this software is easier than phpBB (for me at least)

Umm... yeah, so....  that took a little longer than I expected.  :)

I'd work on it for an hour here and a half hour there, squeezing it in when I found time. Finally decided last night I wasn't going to sleep until it was done. Well... six hours later and 2:30 in the morning, I decided to call it a night and finish this morning.

Learned my lesson about upgrading this forum without properly testing the upgrade on a development platform first. :)

If you see anything that doesn't look right, let me know. I tried to go over every inch of this forum and look for problems, but there's sooo many nooks and crannies of this forum, I wouldn't be surprised if I missed some.

For example, I know the media section isn't right, yet. I'm working on that now and should have it finished soon.

LOL, thanks. Yeah, this is almost exactly how it was before. I had to re-do it all from scratch and made only a few minor changes.
