September 28th Forums Maintenance Report

Post by Iris »

Hi all!

We upgraded the forums earlier today along with the rest of the Wesnoth.org web services platform. One important side effect of this is that the option to switch the profile display to the left side of the page is gone, bringing us back to the upstream phpBB default of displaying it on the right. I have a distinct feeling some people will clamour for my head because of this.

The next thing on the list is that for dark theme users, the AcidTech style is presently disabled. However, to replace it, we've brought in Prosilver Dark Edition, which should hopefully provider a smoother experience while not deviating from the default style as much in terms of looks and functionality. If you were previously using AcidTech, you should now be using Prosilver Dark Edition after I fixed a small mishap with the theme selection earlier. It's worth noting that the number of people affected by this is incredibly small (142 users).

Finally, as Wesnoth 1.12 is no longer supported and certain changes in the forum software break compatibility with clients older than Wesnoth 1.13.12, we've disabled forum authentication in the 1.12 instance going forward. Other instances should be entirely unaffected by this.

While there shouldn't be any new issues arising from the upgrade, if anything in either the forums or wiki doesn't work as it should, do make sure to post here with as much information as you can provide.

Thanks for your patience and have fun!
