Upgrade complete. The forums have been upgraded to the latest version of phpBB, which should resolve the recent issues due to a server-side upgrade of PHP.

I've also updated the DNS so http://reelsociety.com now redirects you here and turned on HTTPS.

Enjoy

What does everyone think of the stylistic change? For me, the border is a bit too white.

check out this website above. Would anyone object if we switched to PS4 Pro? That one seems to have the strongest resemblance to the way RS was before.

Opinions, people!

I sincerely don't care what the layout is, I'm just glad the forum is back up and running :lol: . Thanks a lot digicrat for helping us get things back to business as usual around these parts.

Whatever version we pick, hopefully it's one that shows the recent posts on the main page. This one doesn't seem to do that, but it does let me post from my phone, which is a plus.

That only works when you're logged in, so I couldn't see that while I was lurking on my phone.

Now that I'm at work I'm seeing the last posts on the right hand side of the main page like before, but that was being cut off on my phone for some reason. This template seems to be adaptive, so you see a different version on a smaller screen. That makes it easier to read once you get to the post you want, but the "last post" is valuable info to see at a glance, so I'm disappointed it doesn't show up on my phone, but I checked a few of the demos shryke linked to and it seems they all do that, which is unfortunate.

First thing I tried. It still doesn't show up. It only makes the main cell wider.

May be your phone settings, then? As works fine for me. Either way, new forum is fine as far as I am concerned.

Are you using an iPhone? I tried two different browsers on my Android and same problem.

No, I'm on android too. I'm out of ideas then if that's the case.
