Website Upgrade - *Completed*

Post by MegaMav »

Members,

We will be undergoing a framework upgrade for phpBB, and will have an outage on 10/29.
I do not anticipate the outage to be too long.
Dry runs on my development box have been successful without issues. *Crosses Fingers*

Expect the upgrade to commence around 2PM ET.
Halloween weekend has the tendency to be a slow one, so this is the reason for selecting that weekend for upgrade.

Thank you for your understanding,

-Eric

The website upgrade has been completed.

Features:

As you probably noticed, on the default theme I've changed the shocking green to a more eye friendly gray, which goes well with the blue.

Open attachments in a new window has been asked for multiple times, and I have listened.
This is now a permanent feature, enjoy.

A new Light theme has been added, I think this is really sharp compared to what we had before, and features java scripting to fade the text in and out and dynamic pull down menus and pushable buttons. This is more user friendly than the themes in the past in that all text will now appear as one color. Anyone that uses Yellow or any custom color in the default theme, will not carry that color over to the Light theme, it will all appear as the default color.

You can find the Light theme under your User Control Panel.
Attached are screen shots of our new themes.
Warning: Light theme may not be as mobile friendly as our default theme.

As always, we strive to be the best bowling community out there, and I hope these upgrades and enhancements reflect that.
Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

-Eric

I can't read inside the squares when I use the search. Am I doing something wrong?

It's working. Background box around search word is blue now instead of grey.
Thanks Eric.

Thanks for your time and effort Eric!
May all beings everywhere be happy and free,
and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life
contribute in some way to that happiness
and to that freedom for all.
