We're on a new platform
#1

Groot Gouda who holds the root account was the missing link that was needed to upgrade the forums from Invisionfree to Zetaboards.

Obviously, the skin needs to be reworked and there are other coding things that will need to be done in the ACP.

I will say, though, that based on my experience as an Admin with the TNP forums, that it is generally easier to use than the IVF platform has been.

I'll leave the skin fixes to those who have experience with coding; the Zetaboards Suppport Forum does have a lot of customization coding listed there that can be inserted into our forum skin.

Now, where's Dom when you need him? :666:

On that note, the move seems to have also botched the forum archives, so it's going to be a bit sketchy for a bit to get to older threads. Unfortunately, this includes things like the constitution and charter. Rest assured, I am working on it when I can...

EDIT: I also put up a new theme. It's not perfect, but it's better than Zeta's strangely colored default.

In taking a quick look at the ACP for the forum section management, it looks as if we may have to manually double-check the forum settings for each of the subforums. I noticed we have user groups who can "read" but cannot "view" various subforums, and I'll wager that's where some of the problems are rooted.
We also need to doublecheck user group settings, and that's from my experience with the TNP forum upgrade last summer.

edited to add; I've updated the user group colors since Zetaboards prefers the use of BBCode colors rather than HEX, which is common for HTML coding.
