So far so good.

I've added the three main components to the test forum.

All appear to be working fine.


The Portal

http://www.heresy-online.net/forums/cmps_index.php

Looks to be working fine but lacks a few modules to flesh it out fully.

Articles

Everythings ok except the grey and red colours. (Bit fucking stupid adding such bright colours to the default skin of a forum addon...)

Gallery

I finally got this working after a 2 day fight.

The forum with these addons is more than enough but i'm keen to get hold of a few more bits.

The jury is still out on the current disturbed_x skin. The majority of the mod team are happy with it. I'm going off it slightly in truth so i'll be looking for suggestions if you find a nicer one.

If the testing phase goes according to plan i'll be closing the forum Sunday morning. It'll be offline to the general users until tuesday - or wednesday at the latest.

In the mean time the chat will be functional and running as normal so bookmark it by the weekend

Thanks for helping guys.

Regarding the skin - Run a poll mate...get a consensus.

Of the three currently there I like the disturbed_x skin. But that's just my opinion.

If it's the default skin for guests and new members a poll would come up with the best choice IMO. Most of the members should have checked it out by now.

And everybody can change their own theme in their cp anyway once they're on.

I agree with you Jez, i dont much like disturbed_x. :shock:

But great job, man.

 

[Cadian81st]

Are we switching forums? Not just skins, but a new website, with a new host and everything that implies?

 

[Anphicar]

Yes, we will be moving to vBulletin.

A site that can support our many mods, and we can implement more.

No more "No more mods" excuses for good ideas.

The name isnt too different. heresy-online.net/forums

Some kinks are still being worked out, especially our theme colors.

Visit the link, log in and help test it if you wish.

I've transferred the database to this test forum. So far everything is going perfectly.

 

[The Wraithlord]

Greyskull: no, post count and such should be transferred over.

 

[Darkmessiah]

the site is lookin great, everythin seems sounds, my avatar hasnt transfered over but nothin big. so am a senior forum member am i? :mrgreen: is that worked out on post counts?

 

[hephesto]

Woow. I'm off for a week and we get a new site in the trail periode.

Great work so far, not entirely sure about the skin. But I'm certain it will grow in me given some time :wink:

I'll give the rest of it a good look through tomorrow, but it looks pretty damn good so far! From what I've heard from people who actually understand this stuff the move to Vbulletin is a very good move. So great work so far Jez!!

And I'm a senior member so I'm already happy :wink:

 

[The Wraithlord]

Jez, can you tell me why my sig pics aren't working?

 

[admin]

Sorry

I hadn't enabled them in options yet.

Let me know if you see anything else

 

[Slade]

avatars?

 

[admin]

avatars?

Try now Slade.

I'm going to find a suitable smilie set tonight - in the mean time stop being so happy!

 

[hephesto]

Is it me or did we just loose all the posts and new threads from yesterday?

 

[admin]

I havent declared the forum functional yet. Until I do anything you post may be lost.

Some members are still having difficulties logging in. Once everyone can access the site mass emails will go out and the site will go "live" again.

I've added a redirect to this URL to help test functionality.
