    @Admin thanks for fixing the photos and the watched links. I see a back to top in the very bottom of the page when held landscape if we could get it showing in portrait would be great but can deal with flipping it still faster than scrolling.
    As a person that used to manage and run several forums I know the problems that can arise and you all have done a superb job.
    Just wondering how long you ran it in the backend?
     
    bullhaulerswife and MJ1657 Thank this.

    I'm amazed how smooth this has been. I originally watched this and the bug page close figuring they would blow up and be hard to keep up with. That hasn't happened.

    Its great to see that members ideas have been put in place so quickly.
     
    truckon, Admin, d o g and 2 others Thank this.

    It takes alot of backend work and testing to make even just an update roll smooth. A full on software change and redesign can be a total pain. I have not looked into the xenforo backend but can just imagine the hours spent creating the db import scripts to make the transition.
    I used to mirror the site for almost a week before a simple update in VB or phpforum. One site went from phpforum to vb years ago and the import scripts took me 4 days to write and not cause an error somewhere.
    ugh now I want to play with some code :banghead: :sign5:

    Question:
    If you look in the document i have uploaded,you will see that at the top off where the posts start ,there is "related threads".
    Because off this i lose 1/3 off my screen for reading all the posts .
    Is there any way to get rid off this?.
    In the old version you could collapse or open this.
