Changes are here :)
 

While there are still quite a few things we need to do, the upgrade is mostly complete. We hope you like what you see :)

There are however a few small things that were lost during the upgrade, namely:

* Not all forum permissions are configured correctly. If you had access to the crew/donor/etc sections, it may take a few days before this is restored.
* Users with 0 posts were dropped in the DB cleanup. Most of them signed up and never visited betaone again, so it's not much of a problem. If you recently registered and had yet to post, sign up again.
* Users who registered less than 2 months ago, after we upgraded to IBF will not be able to log on before they reset their password.
* Not all of the changes we promissed are here yet, but expect a lot more within a day or two.
* Some member profile fields may have been lost. The majority of signatures were imported incorrectly, so we decided to delete existing sigs. Hopefully it won't be too much hassle setting them up again.

The main developers of the new site were sony and myself. Recently we welcomed sony on board the administation team, and his knowledge and contribution has been invaluable.

Thanks also go to Al (aka belthazor) for hosting the BetaONE site, and taking care of the financial side of things for the last two years. While he's had to move on due to lack of time, we couldn't have survived those two years if it wasn't for him.

@BetaONE Crew, the new board and setup looks great!! :clap: :clapping: :drunk:
Can't wait to see all the new features coming to BetaONE

Well done Zone-MR and sony. Appreciate your great work. :)

Edit. Portal looks great!

Just wanted to let you all know that if you prefer the old IB posts look with the user information on the left instead of the new vb3 look, simply choose "BetaONE Legacy" from the drop down menu at the bottom of the forum.

Sony

:cool: Still Looking around very coolio guys!

:clap: Thank you Sony & Zone-MR for all the hard work!

Congrats Sony to ur addition to the crew!

Also like to say thanks to belthazor for his keeping things together here. Enjoy your newly found time Al!

yea thanks all for your time and effort

Sony, is I tried this but it does not seem to "stick" in other words I have to choose it each time I open a window. Any help please?

Also, can someone please tell me how I can look at the days posts, or the last 2 days etc. Looking for this but I can't find it.

Awesome guys, just awesome. Didn't realise VBB could look this good.

How come we've moved back to VBB after changing to IPB?

I have been following IPB's new releases and am really pissed off how they are now only providing 15 day trial copies and then you have to pay for license. I think it sucks after they went on about how ipb will and always be free blah blah. They used to say MYSQL, Apache and PHP are free so why pay for a board. Hyprocites! I hope everyone goes back to VBB.

I need to redo my site and remove ipb.

But you guys have a done a great job, all the admins and mods always make sure this is a place a constantly visit.

You guys r0X0r5 m4h b0X0r5 :)

I think it's a bug with the search engine url
you can do it by login in your "User CP" than choose: "Edit Options"
scroll down until you see forum skin
Now you can select the correct version of the skin =)

Thanks Sony, it works. I do prefer the "legacy". ;) Any answer on my other querie? :o

Dave :cool:

Nice work :)

Nice job.

Now time to switch skins. ;)

And I'm lost on the whole quick reply thing. That kinda sucks.

Hi
 

Love the new setup. Looks really good and it seems to be pretty speedy

Thanks for all the kind words :D Hopefully the changes will make BetaONE a little more active again.

Hmmm, that seems to work if I select the alternate skin in the forum index view, but not while viewing threads. If I do it while viewing a thread, it just doesn't do anything. Anyone else having this problem, or is it just me?

I was also wondering about that but found if you click post reply at the bottom of the last post it would work. I sorta figured you might be able to just click inside the quick post box and start typing and all the text inside would dissappear and only show what you typed. That probably will be fixed as soon as they can.

Very nice work to all that had a part in the redoing of the board, very nice.

Thanks

Wow, really nice and clean looking. I like it :)

Great Work to all involved!

Hey,

Yeah i now its usefull for quoting. But kinda odd for just making a quick reply. Less clicking the better. ;)

cya,
Will

You mean user info on the left?

It is for me but everything else is still on the right. :(

Like when posting as I am right now similes, etc are still on the right not the left.

Would be nice if that could be changed?

cya,
Will

Wow,

Nice job. I'll need my time to get used to it, and I still don't really understand 'the why' but I'm sure the was a good reason.

This looks awesome! I cant wait until everything is done. Thanks Zone & Sony!

Yes I forgot to mention Sony when I said thanks last. :o

Sony :thumbsup: and to anyone else I missed.

Missing this very much too. Something like "Today's Posts" like would be great. :)

Thank you Sony & Zone-MR for all the hard work!:) :D :)

Hi dave I added a new feature for you,
in the top nav you can click on the search to expand a drop down menu from there you will be able to search the forum in any possible way =)
