I don’t know if are know issues but titles under the username (like Elite, Samaritan etc) are broken, also when i click on “messages” it take a lot of time to load the page.
Looks like the title reset hit me - now at “Newcomer” despite 1700 posts.
Bots here and no “flag” button to report them.

I know, this topic is about forums, but just in case if someone interested, - WIP Answer Hub Dark theme: [SPOILER]
[/SPOILER]
Found a bug that prevents you from changing the search words (on search results page). Once you click the input field, popup closes:
It does work for Members and Tags tho.
There are very few forums and threads that I can access. Any time I click on the Forums at the top of the page from the Community drop down tab, it will hang and keep refreshing a Login Redirect page. I have since able to get into the forums by logging out and going to the forums and logging back in. Unfortunately while being logged in, if I click a thread or a forum or anything in the forums, it will also hang at that login redirect page. The forums right now are basically unusable for me as I can’t really access anything. If I click on anything, it will either log me out, or just hangs at the login redirect. I honestly have no idea what I did to get into this thread as any attempts do what I stated above just kicks me out or hangs me.
This has been happening for over a week, I thought It was due to forum updating but since it’s been quite awhile, I’m sure it isn’t. I doubt this post will even go through because this is like the seventh time I have tried to post anywhere.
haven’t been here in a while… wtf happened to the forums indeed… you can’t even [mmb] on thread links… until whatever js **** has done its thing… and the theme styling is yuk
revert if this is what VBulletin forum is like for new version its ****. they don’t deserve the license fee… find a better forum software.
cryengine have a very nice forum …not sure what it is right now… styled vnicely
unity still using xenforo and its the only part of there website that isn’t **** now…
I’ve said it elsewhere but I’ll repeat it here - the forums are so buggy and cumbersome to use that I tend to avoid it now unless I have to use it. Before the update I was constantly browsing even in my free time, but now only if I have a new post in one of my threads, or a PM whenever those happen to work. It’d be better all around if we could just revert to the older ones. There was nothing wrong with it, and the new update only makes the forum experience worse which is not the effect you want to have.
@**franktech **Go to Messages - Notifications. There’s filters button, switch “new/dismissed” mode to “both”.
And stop using coloring in the messages. It’s hard to read. Learn how to set emphasis by other means. Quotes, bold, italic, new lines. Also people have brains to do that by themselves.
@password1lol CryEngine forums based on phpBB (free), and while it may be better, it’s still written in php.
@franktech Sorry. Inbox only showing discussions, and not messages (i.e. new messages are the part of the threads). Is this what you were talking about?
Search by name is disabled in vB by default for security means iirc. And Search field in Messages section is meant for keywords, not usernames.
Export is an optional feature for vBulletin and this forum have no those so far.
And I didn’t mean to be offensive, you could write as you want to, it’s just ugly and hard to read imo (in both dark and light modes).
Meantime nuclear weapons are there, why not use them…
Seriously, you provide a lot of good feedback on these forums, but it’s really difficult to read it. Really terrible on any dark theme.
Often I choose to ignore it because it’s look like a mess. It doesn’t help at all to get your message. S-ed maybe wasn’t too gentle, but he’s right. It would be a lot nicer to discuss with you if you’d drop the colors
“CryEngine forums based on phpBB (free), and while it may be better, it’s still written in php”
lol what’s wrong with PHP? Most the web is written in it… too bad I really liked old php, most the php frameworks for doing modern mvc development are ■■■■■■■ awful…hell doing modern website development is ■■■■■■■ awful …its gone to ■■■■,what with trying to cater ■■■■■■■ mobile devices…and myriad of ■■■■■■■■ screensizes and touch input ■■■■…
at this point maybe using asp.net is better…lol
[USER=“843085”][/USER] PHP isn’t bad…for enterprise sector in legacy projects. It just can’t compete with performance of Golang and flexibility of Node.js. PHP7 is really optimized, yet those apps not as fast as Go ones, and implementing new features in Node is really simple (especially frontend). I’ve developed on PHP in the age of Joomla rise.
I’ve made a Dark Theme for AnswerHub, in case someone interested:https://forums.unrealengine.com/unreal-engine/feedback-for-epic/1361582-unreal-answerhub-dark-theme
still waiting when the fix would come for a ton of empty space on forums.
@CriErr Is it persists in the dark theme too?
i dont know how to switch.
I was talking about this one: https://forums.unrealengine.com/unreal-engine/feedback-for-epic/1344336-unrealforums-dark-theme
that one works, still, should be good design by default and made before launch on the forum for billion dollar project.
My eyes man, my eyes! Where is the old dark theme?
