Heads-up that I just finished an update to the forum SW to bring it up to the latest phpBB release (3.3.5). If you see anything behaving badly as a result of the upgrade, please let me know by posting in this thread. In theory, you shouldn't notice much of a difference, if any.

Re: Forum upgraded
I guess one thing you may notice is support for Emoji symbols in addition to the built-in "Smilies".
So if you are posting about s or s, you can use emojis to do it now by embedding something like :unicorn: or :dolphin: in your post. As always, the Preview button is your friend.

Re: Forum upgraded
One bit of convenience lost is that if you are looking at a topic within a forum, you no longer have the useful tag on the screen to jump directly back to that forum's screen to display all its topics.

Re: Forum upgraded
Thanks, Rich! I think I've fixed the issue with "breadcrumbs". Let me know if it's still not working for you. That points me at some other things to double-check on.

Re: Forum upgraded
Seems that I cannot mark all the unread posts as read anymore? Or am I just being blind

Re: Forum upgraded
It looks like the link for "Unread Posts" has disappeared. I'm pretty sure it was on the Test site, because that is the primary link I use on the DAN. I would have missed it first thing...

Re: Forum upgraded
I think that updating the theme files to fix the missing breadcrumbs caused the "unread" button to disappear. I'll track it down and put it back.

Re: Forum upgraded
The "Unread posts" button should be back on the navigation bar. Thanks for pointing this out.
There should be a "Mark topics read" button inside of each forum. Are you looking for something that marks the entire site as read?
