New text color I assume you mean?

So the reply box is totally new for this version of the forums. That's why both the above are true. The screenshot tag still should work, just needs to be put into the editor. I can look into changeing the reply box color, but will probably wait to do that in once the plan for 1.8 themes is finalized.

However I am having trouble reading threads. It is difficult for me to distinguish between different posts, here's a pic showing what this thread looks like for me:

It may have something to do with themes, as I think I was using the black theme before (if that helps at all).

Yeah that's unreadable pretty much.  rant Since no one else has mentioned it, I would recommend clearing your cache and trying again, and/or opening the website in an incognito/private browsing window. If the problem still persists let me know.

That was for the test forum. as of now, there is only one active theme for everyone while I develop the others. 

The change theme location is in your user profile under 'Edit Options', or at the bottom of any forum page in a dropdown box that currently reads 'RB Classic'

Any way to get extra buttons put in the reply box. With the update there's now no button for spoiler tags, which do still work but you now have to wrap the tags yourself.

I'm sure there's more tags that have gone missing since the update, but that's the big one.

Sure thing! Screenshot is another as mentioned above. 

Just need to find the button image for them first.

Welp, the mobile glitch is back again. I'll try using one of the newer themes, maybe the hacked together nature of this one is causing the problem. Edit: and now the change theme button is gone from the control panel. Before when everything broke it was still there, by now it has disappeared.

I'm having trouble signing in. If I try to sign in using the button in the top left corner it doesn't seem to work.

If I click 'reply' to a thread, it takes me to a different sign in screen that works.

Fixed now. Old theme doesn't like popup login windows.

Hey BRick -- any idea when you made the backup and disabled the forum? I think one of my posts may have gotten eaten at that time. (Of course, I may have just forgot to post it. That's been known to happen).

Yeah.  


Forums are loading more slowly for me than usual, specifically opening up threads.  Also, I can no longer select "quick edit" for other user's posts (I usually employ this method to copy text for quoting someone), but "full edit" still works, so it's essentially irrelevant- just a heads-up to other mods.
