ADMIN New forum software upgrade in the works - looking for beta testers

[admin]

will there be a mobile release ( not tapatalk) ?

It works really well for mobile. The design is responsive, so it will automatically adjust for different screen sizes. No more having to zoom in on your phone to read things.

You can still use Tapatalk if you like, but you should not need to

I'm on a few other forums. The XenForo platform is a good one. Thanks for doing this.

Yep. Already done.

Jon, thanks for the heads up. It's rough running into this stuff by surprise, without a good roadmap of the new terms & locations for all the stuff we're used to doing.

I've been through it the other way on another forum, where they thought it'd be fun to make the swap overnight with no notice.

Sign me up. I'd be glad to give it a try as you are sorting out the bugs.

Well if you want someone who is a concrete sequential learner, I'm your guy! If the software is missing a step and assumes the operator will know what to do next then I am the guy that can find that for you. lol

My wife's company ran every set of instructions and programs thru me to test because I would find any/all missing steps in it for them.

I'll help if you want.

Sounds like the right creds to me

Sorry. I mean it's already fixed in the new forum software. So once I switch over to the new forum the embedded YouTube videos will work.

Hi Jon,

I'd be happy to give the beta a go if you're still looking for volunteers.

Take Care,

Jeff

 

[sprdv1]

got that beta testing going yet?

 

[admin]

Not yet. My guy who is doing the database conversion got delayed this week with another job. I should know more on Monday.

 

[admin]

We're still working out some issues behind the scenes, so this deadline is slipping a bit. I hope to have the test forum ready for beta testers this coming weekend.
