Hi guys. Well, we have now purchased and installed the latest IP Boards forum software. The old PhpBb platform was showing it's age, and it was time for move. The conversion process was long and complicated, and there are a few wee errors to sort out, but we'll get there. A few that spring to mind are the profile photo. Unfortunately, the path to the photo directory is wrong (it didnt change ovr in the conversion) so I need to do some editing of the main site templates to sort this. So you'll see on the main forum page that the "latest posts" bit on the right hand side will have "photo" in every post! This will change once I sort things out.UPDATE: THIS IS NOW FIXED! Also, when you go to look at topics, you'll notice that where you can usually click the right hand side of a topic to see the latest post, the last post/username is kinda circled. Clicking it won't take you to the last post yet. the reason is that all the "last posts made" in the old forum are the ones you see with a circle round the last post bit as described above. Until someone makes a new post using this new forum, the last post link will not work! I have a sneaky way to get round this (I'm gonna do a Tom and spam all topics with a simple smiley post!! lmao!) once that is done, the last post function will work normally. There is so much still to set up, it's really time consuming and mentally draining! I haven'e even started on replacing all our current webpages yet! The Gallery feature is a new thing! It's in the menu bar at the top of the page. The gallery is exclusively for Gold/Silver/Bronze members. they can create an album for their car etc. Normal members can view the gallery and the cars in it, but cannot create and album. The "Civic5 Store" which is also in the main menu, is another new feature. Here, you will be able to buy your choice of membership, and everything will be fully automated! PLEASE DONT USE IT RIGHT AWAY, AS WE HAVENT QUITE GOT IT FINISHED YET!! Theme wise, you can select your theme in the link at the bottom of the forum. There is the standard IP Board theme, the IP Board Mobile theme, and a basic Civic5 theme. We will be working on getting really nice flashy civic5 theme created in the future, and also will be installing Tapatalk in the forum too, as this proved to be very popular! New Theme now created and installed! 22/6/13 We hope you like your new forum, and continue to use it as much as you did before (hopefully even more!!)

Yeah, I tried it on my phone at work and it was actually pretty good on the mobile theme! I like the way Tapatalk works though, its pretty smooth and really quick. Time will tell!

We're now onto our brand new I.P. Board forum software! Another milestone converting from our old PhPBB forum, and making civic5.com future proof
