Come on over and test the new Forums

did something change on the test platform as I cannot make a post all I see is a message stating "you have insuffcient privileges to reply here".

There are some permissions issues we are working through. I moved the "Welcome to to new forums" post over to the announcements sub forum and then also lost permission to it.
 
Looking good! My PM inbox looks great too.

There is an issue with some characters being displayed as a unicode number. For example, a formatted apostrophe ( ’ ) appears as ( #8217 ). Might be related to collation, just guessing. https://xenforo.com/docs/xf2/unicode/

Late to the party, but overall that really looks much better. Appreciate the hard work you guys are putting into this.

As for suggestions: would it be possible to have all the various sub-forums shown right on the main page, as with vBulletin? Having them hidden behind extra clicks is more tedious to navigate. Makes the main page looks a bit sparse, too - with the current forum, at least it's nice to be able to get a snapshot of what's going on in the various forums at a glance.

I see Xenforo is set up like that at https://audiokarma.org/forums/. But their scheme may be different, since they appear to have categories as the top level, then forums, then sub-forums... not sure how easy it would be to convert to that.
