Forum Upgrade

Post by LordOfAles »

So i joined Battle For Wesnoth forum yesterday and i was amazed that they have so effective forum. Also people faster respond to each other, as well as nicer emojis. I thought we could change the forum to that one too? Here is the link how it looks like:

About ideas here: We can simply copy paste the useful ones

Ummmm... They are using the same code base as this one. They've just added a few things like a branded menu bar at the top and are using different emoji things.

If you have specific suggestions, please add them as separate topics to the "About the forum" section.

I do not mind the respond times as it is, but some new emojis would be cool.

It is very difficult to find smilies that are free to use :) A lot of "free packs" do not include license details and might have stolen them from Skype or Firefox. We cannot steal emoticons to use on this forum.

So any smilies that we find must be free to use.

Or - you can make smilies for us to use on the forum. They must be 16x16 px .gif file (can be animated). There are some guidelines about what we will use, but they are unwritten as of yet

Please do not steal smileys
Thanks!
