New Orxonox Forum

Post by patrick » Mon Oct 02, 2006 9:40 pm

After a short downtime this is our new Orxonox forum. The forum categories have been fully restructured. We are afraid that the old forum entries are lost.
But we are sure that the real forum activity just started... 8)

Nice nice. But I'd like to change my style (I'm not that confident with the solaris style).
You have to uncheck the option in the admin control panel where it says to overwrite the user chosen style.

It's good we can present a working forum to the PPS guys. I'm really looking forward working with the forum during the PPS.


By the way: If there is any way to retrieve some bits of the old database I should be able to fix it right away. I'm quite familiar with the phpBB-Forum, because I host one on my own webspace.

I promoted you to admin status. If you have an nice style, that looks better than this one, send the zip file to me, I will install it here.

Wow. that was more than what I asked for, but thanks :).
I made the necessary changes in the admin cp (Don't worry, I won't change stuff without your approval) and I found a cool style. It's one of these you already uploaded so you won't have to upload another one.
Solaris is a decent style. It's just not my taste. I have Solaris available on my phpBB-board as well and about 20% of all the users use the Solaris style, so leave it as default.

Nice! :) What about a developer group?

Groups only make sense if we want to have different rights or am I wrong? Other than establish different rights for different groups nothing can be done. Of course we can make a developer group anyway. It doesn't really matter to me.

It's a benefit, if visitors of the forum are able to see which users are involved in the project... maybe :roll:

You're right. It's better that way. Patrick already did it anyway :)
