Cellar new forum software project - Page 2

Have you considered Drupal in this context?

Undertoad · 12-17-2015, 06:32 PM

Drupal's not a forum, that's what we're after

mybb conversion completed ~ You could try it

test d0t cellar d0t org slash mybb

Don't link to it. You can play. You can't break anything. This is just a scratch cellar. This is the default design which would not be final by any means. It kinda did not convert really well. Thread counters and sorts are wrong. I doubt this is where we will wind up.

Can the columns be re-sequenced to show up as they are now?

I view my notebook from a few feet away (it's on the coffee table while I'm on the sofa with wireless mouse and keyboard). The view is set for continuous 200% magnification for easy reading at that distance. The view on MyBB cuts off the Last Post column since it's not next to the Forums column anymore. I also wonder how this would affect others using magnified views on smaller devices.

Simple Machines Forum conversion completed ~ You could try it

test d0t cellar d0t org slash smf

Wow, that was easy and it looks like it worked really well!

I'm only seeing the pictures in the IOtD, no other threads.

sexobon · 12-19-2015, 10:55 PM

Will UT or any moderator remove the URL description in UT's post above until UT can close the moderators' board in the Simple Machines Forum.

Thanx.

The search function doesn't work by usernames only. There have to be words to search for accompanying the username. At least that's what I see while not logged in. Perhaps there's another mode available. The layout looks nice though.

Either I forget my password or you can't post yet

lumberjim · 12-20-2015, 06:01 AM

Oh. You have to read. It wants your pw 2 times

lumberjim · 12-20-2015, 06:09 AM

Will Tapatalk play nice with that one?

Undertoad · 12-20-2015, 08:04 AM

Tapatalk supports all these forums softwares, it's pretty good about that.

lumberjim · 12-20-2015, 08:26 AM

When you make the switch, will I notice?

Undertoad · 12-20-2015, 08:36 AM

Yes, unlike the cloud move, in this switchover I think there will be an impact and everyone will have to adapt in little ways. In Tapatalk you will notice the people who have left the Cellar because they are afraid of change.

As long as you can provide a "sterile for work" interface in whatever the new system is, it shouldn't impact my experience much.
