Forum change?
-
Change my dear, and it seems not a moment too soon.
Really hope the transfer goes well! A few years ago I shut down old phpbb forums on a website I once owned, in favour of replacing them with Zenforo. It did mean users would need to re-register, but I just thought it was best to cut that chord in favour of more modern forum software. To at least keep the "old forum" around, we locked it up and made it read only, so people could visit all the old posts and topic from the past, but recently they had to be taken offline as the phpbb was not being updated (all of the old plugins were not comparable and would break).
Long story short, the old forums are now offline and I am semi curious on how to bring them back. Seems like this could be a way to go about it! Although it seems like a huge job, and I don't even own the website anymore lol.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the voice of encouragement!
Fortunately we will be transferring everything across. I admit the new design likely wonβt be as tight as the current design (sorry Evelyn). But I think/hope the gains are worth it.
And the design can be improved over time.

The transfer is complete. Let's see how well it works
Note that all users will need to reset their passwords. You will not be able to log in using your old password.

Ah yes, I shall take a looksie in a mo.

That should now be fixed

I come armed with a new password!!
Shame to see the old design go after what seemed like a Dragon's age, but I guess the only way is onward...

I will probably create a design a bit more fitting to the Knightmare.com website in due course. But at the moment my priority is to make sure the forum is working.
In doing that, I've also been quietly making a bunch of changes to the main site to bring some things up-to-date. You probably won't notice much, but behind the scenes, a bunch of stuff has changed

Well, hopefully y'all will look the new design, which makes it a bit more Knightmare.com.
I've also made some modifications to the main site, to bring a few more things up-to-date and modern.I've also just finished a beta of an a Knightmare.com app. It is very funky
