Open Road

Ok I know some of you might still prefer the old style. I have re-enabled it so to get there do the following:

- Click on your avatar on the upper-right corner
- Select Control Panel
- Select Board Preferences
- Look for "My Board Style", this one is called FLATBOOTS while the old one was called Elegance

You can switch back and forth at your discretion.

Now keep in mind when you go back to the old one there might be some features that are now disabled because they are built into the new template. So by moving backwards you're not just going back to the old board but one that is somewhat less functional.

That's a relief, thank you! New one was hurting my brain.

Thank you, wasn't going to say anything but much prefer "elegance".

I kinda preferred the previous format, too. I don't have the option to change back under Board Preferences, though.

EDIT: Never mind, it showed up.

Dark Flatboots........thanks.....perfect for my old eyes........

I keep running into little bugs with this new one. As much as I like it, if things continue we'll go back to "old school" if necessary.

Nightstalker mode is much more to my liking. Not quite as much contrast as needed for easy reading in the lighter theme.

Thanks for the info on how to get back to the previous style. I didn't have a problem with the format on the new one but I couldn't find the "new posts" button which I'd rather have. :)

I think this is the big feature missing from the new one. I switched back, but will go with the new form when that gets sorted out.

@Top Jimmy

Take a look below, are you using desktop or mobile?

I think people are referring to the "New posts" button that shows a list of threads with new posts in them regardless of which forum they are posted in.

I use both mobile and desktop. The “first unread” button doesn’t show up on a thread at the top in mobile when using the new style. At least I can’t seem to find it.

Thank you. Old style feels much more home-ish.
