I thought this place wasn't getting the update, (if its the same for everyone) does anyone know if the chatbox can be put back in as the creator of the forums or just plain to anyone above starlcan member?
If this isn't needed then just lock it, I thought this would be easier then sending out Pm's

I hate it..... Will look into getting the cbox back up. Frostleaf was responsible for the feature so I don't know what will happen. I miss the new topic button :/

It's proboards version 5. It's different and takes some getting use to, but I do find it better (I've had other sites convert to it).
For those who do not know, the chatbox was a separate feature Frostleaf (or Admin) added on. It was not part of the actual forum itself, just imbedded. However, I do know that Version 5 has it's own chatbox option. The staff just have to find it. It's similar to our old one.

Blackbolt: I found the new new topics button. Go to home page and scroll down to "Forum Information & Statistics." In the section "Threads and Posts," underneath the most recent post will be several links. One of them says "Recent Threads." That's it.

Thanks as well, what a stupid change that makes a little more inconvenient for when you want to see those :/ Anyone know why they took out the Karma points as well? Kind of liked giving you guys something nice every now and then for being cool.

No idea. But you're suppose to give Karma when someone makes a particular post you like. Maybe that's what the thumbs-up button is for.

You have to be the main Admin
you can enable the "shoutbox" by entering your admin area and selecting Settings > Forum Settings > Shoutbox and configuring the settings on the following page

The new lay out is ok I guess, It's cool we can add each other as friends and be in groups, badges and all that.(even our own update v-log is awesome) its so strange and takes to long to get to simple stuff, the karmas gone (above^) which sucks if we have to re earn it i almost had 100
I guess as long as the chat box is on here again I'm fine, but i'm not sure i like this layout.It's ok I guess....

I had my forum updated to V5 when it was first came out for testing(Like not early release, actual beta testing), so I'm quite used to it.
As for the Shoutbox... It's simply Admin > Settings > Shoutbox Should be obvious from there. Hope I helped. ^^

One thing I really like about V5 is the plugins! On my forum I added a multiple post merge, monetary system, karma system... It's pretty cool.

I have 250+ karma. Most of it was from finding the SkyClan Maze glitch.

Yeah, and you can't edit how much karma you have like you used to be able to. It sucks.

All I can do in the Admin > Setting area is just censor words Will check to see if I can get in touch with Admin, if not will have to wait until he gets on.
