Forum Update Complete [Change]

[Moe]

Forum will be down for an update Monday. Big change, unsure of the length of the down time. Biggest change is that the forum theme will be gone. If any other major changes pop up I'll be sure to post about it after the update.

Might take a little bit of time for everyone to get used to it. But it will greatly increase stability of the forum. If you have question before Monday, post them below and I will do my best to answer them.

Update
So the update is completed. I kinda just picked a darker theme to replace the bright default theme. Some style changes might still pop up here and there, but they'll all be minor and won't effect anything other than appearance.

I completely hope.
there will be more and more players play NELG and use this forum.

Will previous posts be intact, just not filtered through the DarkSun shell?

Posts will be migrated over. What it does, it replaces all of the forum files minus the configs, and then updates the database to include the tables it needs, maybe move some columns around. Either way, I will have a backup just in case, then I also will make a copy for me to actually do the update on, and once successful it will be moved to replace this one. Call it double redundancy.

Worst that can happen is the forum copy I set for the update doesn’t work, I say “oops” delete it, and this one is literally untouched.

Groovy!

Does it affect many of the other themes?

It will affect them yeah. But since I'm going to also over the next week or so be working on restoring the main theme as much as possible with the new version, I'm definitely open to feedback on what you're looking for in terms of coloring, icons, and the such

There is no new version of NELG. What a pity.
Good luck on updating the forum.

Nope, still no new version of NELG.

Forum update went fine, a few hiccups, didn't update as much as I wanted to, ran into issues with the host.
Had an issue with the member profile page after I finished the update, looks like I might have gotten that fixed?

[Moe]

Okay, So I fixed a backend issue, that might cause more frontend issues, so if anyone gets an error please please shoot me a PM where you got the error so I can fix it
