    I am pleased to announce that the MMB conversion has been completed successfully! It took a lot longer than expected as I ran into some unexpected issues during the conversion.

    I will be posting some user guides on how to use the new forum features here.

    The forum may experience some slowdowns later on today as I will be performing some post conversion steps.

    Please let me know if you have any questions and please report any errors you encounter.

    Thanks,
    Stefan

    Wow it has so many new options and will take a while to figure out how to use them all, I guess I will have to spend even more time here now to figure it all out

    It is gonna be a learning curve to find all the "goodies" the new forum offers. Might be when I hit my off season in winter before I figure it all out! :cool:

    Stefan,

    I've noticed these anomalies with this and the other Xenforo boards, maybe you have some insight... Whenever you do a mouse hover towards the top of a page, the popup tooltip is buried under the top of the window. Makes one have to scroll the page just to read the balloon tip. Also, there is no option to preview a post without clicking through a couple of additional options to get there...

    Thanks!

    @RASelkirk Which browser do you use?

    When I hover over a title of a thread, I get a popup after a slight delay.

    O.K. I am using the NEW POSTS button at the top. It shows me all the new threads since the last time I logged in. that works great.......but........after I read all those threads, it still shows me 10 pages under this heading:

    Threads below this have not been updated since your last visit but have unread messages.

    I go through about 3 pages of them....clicking on each one to show that I have "read" them. I go up and hit NEW POSTS again.....and I still see 10 pages under this heading posted above. Am I doing something wrong?

    Unless you clicked on "Recent posts", you should no longer see previously viewed threads that you have viewed and that have no new posts.

    Click on "Mark Forums Read" and let me know if you see any more threads.
