    Like I've been mentioning for awhile now, we'll be moving to Drupal for our CMS and XenForo for our forum. All the content will remain in tact but we will trying to change some things to improve the site. If you have any suggestions about anything please feel free to discuss them here. We are open to suggestions for new aspects of the site and remodeling existing features to improve everyone's site experience.

    I'd still like a preview button for posts. And an edit option for recent messages would be good too so that any BBcode screwups aren't permanent. And on the topic of BBcode, double spoilers and stuff like that? ;3

    From what I understand stuff like that is pretty standard on xF. It doesn't require 9,001 plugins to do every little thing like bbpress does.

    To all members: I have a test XenForo forum up for beta testing. If you're interested, send me a PM and I'll get you set up. I'm more the go-to gal when it comes to XenForo (hehe).

    Would be good for anyone wondering what our future forum environment will be like.

    @Sporadic so you know me, I started testing things to play around with and being Aussie I already found out that with our new bad word filter it doesn't censor bullshit while sh!t is, for consistency it probably should be added to the list.

    I just noticed that d@mn is censored, any chance we can get this word back?

    I have also been testing this, and in my slur of expletives, the only one it didn't bleep was the one I deemed worst. Being *the C word*. Oh, forgot to test the lesser C word. *ahem* Crap.

    Question:
    Will all staff be allowed to do statuses or will it be just restricted to administrators?

    @Supernatural-Knight @Mafiacow Word censorship is built into the forum. I'll look to see what entries are in there and make any necessary adjustments.
    All staff should be able to set their Custom Title within their Personal Detail settings. If one can't, I'll see if I did the permissions wrong.

    Removed all the entries. I was never one for the word filter on the other site. Just remember to have people use discretion and not abusing the new leniency.

    I wonder who added the entries because I know I haven't gotten around to the word filter due to other priorities.

    Hey Kiri, I don't see a custom title option.
    Sorry for being a bother

    This will take some getting used to. I like the new forum overall but it's definitely different.

    Coolies, now I have expletive freedom to put in my own censoring~
    One more point of mention; signatures displaying in messages. Is there an option to turn them off just for messages?

    Oh. And email notifications; I haven't been getting any. Is it the same for everyone else?

    Signatures will always show to my knowledge. As for emails, we're still on the "old" server that has the mail service mostly blocked. Once we're on our new server, which we'll move to soon, emails should then work as expected.

    Yeah, unfortunately there was a hang up trying to put xF on the new server. Our mailserver on this current server was hijacked not long ago and since we were about to leave the server soon I just disabled it rather than risk having our IP banned. We move servers tomorrow anyways so the notifications will be back in order.
