Request for fixes of various regressions in the forum software

[ajacocks]

If anyone is interested in trying to create skins for the forum, we’re definitely interested. I believe that someone had started to work on this, already.

I do agree that the newer version of vBulletin isn’t as easy to use, due to the massive number of added features, as the old version, but there wasn’t really a choice about upgrading. Out of date versions of forum software, like vBulletin, are exploited all the time. The only other option would have been to move to a completely different software backend. Also, if anyone wants to suggest vBulletin settings that you think would make things better, we’re happy to look in to them.

Everyone here is trying to make things better. It’s definitely not a lack of interest!

Thanks!

We've already given numerous suggestions in this and the main forum upgrade thread. If you need help with how to implement them in vBulletin, maybe you should have asked for that help before the upgrade. A switch to an entirely different forum architecture may have ultimately yielded a better result. I belong to several XenForo forums that look and act more like the old vBulletin than the new vBulletin itself does!

But since later is better than never, did you try vBulletin's own support forum? https://forum.vbulletin.com/
