Forum Software Update Question

My vote is for Discourse. https://www.discourse.org/features. This would get us into the Bronze Age at least.

Holy hell, no.

Maybe for you Instagram tweeting tweety tweens, who cna't put down the Iphone to breath and are all about nothing speaking in acronyms and twittering the color of your latest bowel movement or bacon, or how much bacon was in it when you did, but that looks like crap... and worse, without the bacon.

I just chiseled my reply on a stone tablet for you. When you crawl out from under your rock you should see it.

Which does lead us to a question: qui bono?

Fundamentally, the answer has to be Kestryll, in financial commitment, operating ease and reliability, and in accomplishing what he sees as the desired outcome from the money and time investment.

Boss, you might need a bigger thread, but would you care to address what you think Calguns is for, and who gets what expected benefits?

Here is what the board looks like: https://meta.discourse.org/

I don't see the big deal, it's clean, easy to find stuff, and has a pleasing layout. It's not one of the listed options though.

So... missing the point much that without having a positive effect on the gun culture of all those mobile device tangled youngsters (myself included as a 39 yr old electrical engineer) you’re not going to be doing ANY activism of worth much longer in CA? Of what real value is having your properly formatted text in that light? Worthless. If users cannot use the site with the device they want to use it with you might as well not have it online.

Umm... No, that is just one of the most bland and unattractive forum interfaces I've seen in a decade or two.

And I'm an Infopop survivor!!

That looks great.

Umm... No... About the only thing I've seen that's worse than that is Slack and the Google Plus Communities.

I voted Xenforo before I got to this post. And I still Like it better.

On another note.

I started using Tapatalk because of CalGuns. Not because I like Tapatalk but because it did make it easier to read my favorite forum.

That being said I wouldn't mind using a different reader or even a dedicated read just for CalGuns.

Does Xenforo support different readers or have an option to create it's own dedicated reader?

I'm testing demo versions of vB5 and Xenforo and I took a couple screen shots of a few changes I've made. These are works in progress so don't judge these as the limits of what we can do.

For example vB5 can have the colors changed to be similar to what we have and I'm trying to find out if Xenforo can be changed to a single column layout like what we have here.
