Hi all!

As you can see we have finally moved to a new modern forum engine, hurray:)

However, we still have a lot of work to do. If you notice anything wrong or if you have any suggestions please post it here.

Here is a current list of things to do:
1. Automatic language detection - Fixed
2. Redirect does not work for old subforum links:
http://forum.adguard.com/forumdisplay.php?25-English-Forums - Fixed
3. There should be a way to change forum theme (try "Style chooser" on the demo forum: http://xf1.artodia.com/style/simplicity/) - Fixed
4. Moderators lost their access - Fixed
5. Broken images in users signatures:
http://forum.adguard.com/image.php?type=sigpic&userid=30&dateline=1396693844
6. Nickname color should depend on the user role:
Red for admins
Blue for moderators
Dark blue for beta testers
Fixed
7. Not all users can edit their own posts (depends on the forum role?) - Fixed
8. Not all users can edit their signature (moderators - cannot) - Fixed
9. Remove "Share This Page" block from the main page (along with facebook and twitter code). - Fixed
10. Move forum to https - Fixed
11. Redirect the old RSS links:
http://forum.adguard.com/external.php?type=rss2
12. Add thread prefixes: [Solved], [-] etc.
13. Mention forum section in mail notifications. - Fixed
14. Add to message editor 'spoiler' and 'quote' instruments. - Fixed
15. Add favicon - Fixed
16. Add filter to remove all results in Russian from 'New Posts' - Fixed[color=redИсправлено
17. Enable merging of the similar posts.
18. Show total number of messages under the users' avatars. - [COLOR=red]Fixed

19. Display sub-sections on the main page (you can only see level 1 sections now). - Fixed
20. Display users registration date below message counter - Fixed
21. Leave only messages in currently selected language in 'New posts'
22. Add BB codes for tables

Ha, I've got lots of awards now! :D

Anyways, nice upgrade though there's a couple things (I'll update this as I notice stuff)...

1) Accessing My account from http://forum.adguard.com/index.php?account/ results in a permission error.

2) All the sub-forums should be made main forum sections. I suspect users will get confused due to the need of multiple clicks per section due to all the nested sub-forums.

Also it looks like moderators (and admins too, maybe) lost all "power" except for perhaps the test admin account. :D

I don't envy you guys at all. I've set up multiple forums in the past and it isn't exactly fun. :p

3) Doesn't have to do with the upgrade/change, but Extensions (Userscripts) should be part of the Filter Rules section or it's own section, IMO. Thoughts?

Admins still have it, but for some reason two-factor auth is now mandatory, such a pain.

In any case it should not be just a part of AG for Windows. Moving it to "Filter rules" section makes sense indeed.

Actually, this makes sense too as, I guess, they don't want to risk admins getting their accounts hacked into. :p

Eh, that is not default. @vasily_bagirov made it necessary and nobody know how to revert it back:)

Finally a forum engine with mentions support, love it.

Number 3 in the list.
Ah yes I see it now. I'm going blind in my old age!

All the dark styles look good. The 'black-responsive' could have the white font less white.

What I like to see is layered dark greys with some pale colour highlighting. Or at least a little more pale colours when used on the dark or graphite and black-responsive themes.

Keep up the good work!

I quite liked the old one...

I couldn't edit the threads I created.....
And also can't edit Signature.....
