Hello everyone and dear moderators :)

I liked the new design, yet I find it too confusing.. :( I do respect your decisions and fully accept how its now, but, is there any possibility of returning to/changing themes or GUI for a previous/older version GUIs? I'm just an old-school tech guy :)

Thanks in advance,
Cheers!

I don't think its possible since last forum software was MyBB and currently its XenForo. they are different.

MyBB and XenForo are different software platforms, and therefore operate differently. Some other members have said it will take them time to get accustomed to the changes, likewise for most of us here. :)

I think this forum looks nice and has some good new features. It is really not as easy to navigate as the previous one, but I'm sure these things will be ironed out in time. Even basic things such as links in signatures and the search aren't working correctly right now, so the work is far from finished and I wouldn't be surprised if the end result becomes more user-friendly than the previous model.

It's confusing to me as well. I can't even figure out where the signature block setting is for any changes...

Dangling Forum .. yes, but the real things are progressing, personally I am already accustomed, but it is true that it lacks things here and there. Patience, patience, Jack (and maybe others) are working on it. If someone has enough knowledge in these things, help Jack instead of whining ..

Bit confusing at first I guess. Just have to get used to it I guess.

Dangling forum was posted for a not knowing what was going on, had i known he was just working on learning the site in the back ground for a change, i would not have posted it. It was not whining, but an actual need of understanding due to lack of communication from staff members... So the next time you insult some one, make sure you understand what you are insulting!

Yep! The new links in topics works good now! Evidence that Jack is working on it.
But the old links, those in topics like Shroud of Turin, still not working .. but we hope that this will soon be fixed. Thank you Jack!! ...

- Hmm, I do not understand the intent of your post, unless you think I was insulting? Bizarre, but I insult anyone, I think you misunderstood something ..
Takes into consideration that English is not my native language, so ..

I believe the editing of signatures has now been added to member permissions

Hover over your Username to the right of the Navbar and click on signature this will then take you to Edit Signature

I must need glasses because I'm still not seeing it...though I appreciate the effort on my behalf.

Maybe permissions are set for a certain Usergroup and not others as of yet???? Limited options(no text size,colored text,ect.) as compared to posting of replies & Threads

New site is confusing and not easy for the eyes. Please do something about this.

It will take some time getting used to it but XenForo is miles ahead of MyBB.I have used both XenForo & Vbulletin and I am still getting used to it.Spend a little time with it and don't be afraid to ask someone for help.It is a highly customizable and it will take a little time for Jack to get everything up to speed.

I think, as someone pointed out earlier, that feature may only be enabled currently for a different member group.
