In the German board is an information which says: "Information: This board is currently disabled."
But it is still there. Or maybe the reason is because I am an Administrator there.

Yes please! Themes will make the forum better.
Current format is way too busy and lots of scrolling required.

Is it possible to add upvote/downvote per post?
Then filter responses per vote.

You can switch theme in your profile. May be using 'prolight' as default ? The theme database is here if you find something better: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styl ... les-12/3.3

Thanks Fred.

I'm loving the ProLight theme on mobile. I can stop using TapaTalk now.
Regards

Ah, nice, there are different design available now. Can you please add them also to the German board?

Also is it possible to change the width of the forum so that it actually uses the whole screen and not just the middle part of it? That would be awesome. Otherwise I do not understand why I have a wide screen display but the website I am browsing uses only half of it. It's like a vertical video :D

Thank you very much Fred for everything
Maybe you are getting a WARRIOR R&R from the main task(Converting to C) :D
Can you please add Breeze by eeji it's so close to the previous style.
Thanks again and again Fred for your great work
I liked PureBasic much but I am not going to tell you about the programming languages I have used before to not giving you any hint about my age :mrgreen:

Can we (as a user) change the position of the profiles in the posts? Most of the style show the profile on the right hand side.

Please, can you install "Lucid Lime" and/or "Nosebleed" Theme?

Ok, there are lots of themes to choose, but none are dark?
Can you please add 1 dark theme?

Thanks for the upgrade!
The code select function is nice.
I can drop my Javascript bookmark now. :twisted:

Thanks for refreshing the forum
The code Select is really useful, indeed
I also like the new code box area but it would be nice if there was an Expand button as well, for a more global view of the code than with scrolling.

In the default theme, ProLight I believe, PureBasic forum and the Url is not written in the Title, next to phpBB. The same for some others, CleanSilver, Anami, Basic.

I personally find ProLight a bit bland.
ProSilver or ProSilver Special Edition have more contrast and seem to me, more suitable for offline users and there is PureBasic Forum written :)

Probably an old debate, would it be possible to include attachments in post reply, especially for images, rather than going through sharing servers and thus avoid dead links over time.

Edit:
"Last edited by....." comment comment is a good news thing too. But it would be good to be able to write the reason for the change, as an option.

Can't say about that engine, but looks good enough, like somehow more "user-friendly" and "mobile-friendly".
