What do you think of the new forum theme?
Megiddo:
Hey everyone, just thought I'd get your input about the new forums.
Personally, I loved it at first... but now I'm finding it's not as easy to use as the old one. Anyone else other thoughts?
You can compare with the old one here and you can get back to the new one here
Mank:
I prefer SMF.
JamminR:
For overall reading, I prefer the old.
I find it easier to use when user information is to the left of the post, and the messages don't have such a large block in between.
Though, I love the new 'Tree' at the top of each block of posts or index showing which forum I'm in. I know the old one showed same info, but not in a tree view.
Example-
+ Ulysses
|-+ General
| |-+ General Discussion
As for colors, well, I don't use them. I viewed the old and the new using another browser I have set to use default browsing colors, and I can't really decide which I like better.
How much work would be involved in using the new menus/headers up to the point of the posts, below the tree line, then using old style for actual message/posts area?
Megiddo:
Well, there's an option to do just that in the admin section... it works for this theme but not the other. :(
Megiddo:
Another option is here. Let me know what you think.
