Merry Christmas from the Batboard Staff - Upgrades

Post by akardam »

To all our users;

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

We've upgraded the board to the release version of PHPBB3. As always, let us know if any problems crop up.

In addition, we've got a very special Christmas present for you... that's right, BatBlack is back!

The Batlabs Theme Development Team (JAYMZ and I) have worked long and hard to modernize and update the classic BatBlack board theme to suit the current version of the software. If you want to give it a spin, simply go to your User Control Panel, and on the Board Preferences > Edit Global Settings page, in the My Board Style dropdown, choose "BatBlack_v3".

Cheers!

This is so sweet!!! I've been waiting patiently for BatBlack ever since the upgrade, and its finally here! Great job guys, I think I like this better than the original BatBlack.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Weird. Must be a style sheet issue with the upgrade to 3.x.

I'll look at it when I'm back in the city... I've been playing with new batblack, so I haven't really been using the other one (which I also like).

Thanks for the hard work. Now, what are the chances the hyperlink bug can be fixed? (links open in a separate page rather than same page)

It is a matter of figuring out where it is in the code, and making the adjustment. If someone wants to figure it out, feel free, and let me know what the code change is.

Hey folks. Akardam and I are still working on the Batblack theme to fix whatever we missed or find what doesn't really "work" in the theme. If there are any suggestions or ideas let us know. RC2 should be deployed as some point soon and only consists of cosmetic CSS changes. Any approved suggestions would go into the next RC after that.

BatBlack_v3.0.0 RC2 Changelog
*Table Header Color Change
*Quote/Code Titlebar and Border Color Change
*Quote/Code Textbox and Text Color Change
*PM Marked as Read Color Change
*Icon Size Correction
*BG Image Fill Adjustment

Known issues for the next release
*Searched text highlight matches regular text
*Table borders in posts are black

I'm aware of it but it's a PHPBB issue, not a batboard issue. I'll wait for them to address before I bother trying to figure it out.
