Background
So, as I mentioned in my previous posts, I had to update the board software to a new version (phpBB 3.2.7). We were previously running on a very old branch of phpBB that was no longer supported and was becoming more and more incompatible with modern server software. I'd put it off until forum traffic died down as BfA progressed.
Bugs and issues
Is there anything not working as it used to? Or are there outright bugs? There were some difficulties during the update process but as far as I know everything is basically working. Lack of functionality may be an issue if the functionality relied on an extension that was removed in the update process. If there's anything missing I'll try to find an extension that does the same job.
The board style
Are you happy with the new board style? Or is there another you'd prefer? As you see, the theme isn't *exactly* the same as it was, but I've picked one that is similar. This theme ("Subsilver2") is no longer official (it was back in our old version) and is made by a third party to approximate the old one. I'm not entirely happy with some aspects of it (including the fact he added a link to a Russian online store, which I removed!) and I'd not use it if it wasn't the only one that mostly matched the old one. But there are alternatives. If you go to your user control panel (top right, go to your name, click on the menu arrow) you can set a couple of other themes, such as Prosilver (which is the official default) and Prosilver SE (a greyer version). But there's also a large list of possible ones here:

I'd like to at least add a dark theme, if we can settle on a nice one. I've added two dark options to test out: one is Lucid Lime (not bad) and the other "ne black green" which I think looks way more horrible in practice than it did in the preview :/ But maybe I'm in the minority on that.
