All I hope is option to keep old forum layout or switch between old and new forum at will when this new one will go live. Because at first glance new layout is not that impressive imo.

I already said that the current theme won't be the final one and that there are probably going to be a few to change to. You can always request the change if that is not the case.

That's most likely what will happen, on a platform like transifex(which is used by Bitcoin Core as well).

Transifex was the first to come to mind as well.

After some poking around all I can say it's underwhelming.

The good news is that devs seem to be responsive and Bitcointalk users are a demanding bunch so there is hope that it all can be sorted out.

Is there a buglist being maintained somewhere? To check if I'm not reporting something that's already known.

To answer my own question:

I would suggest adding a feature that allows each member to hide or block any topics that they have already read and don't need to read again. Some topics stay near the top which is fine for those that need that topic but some of us might not need to see it anymore.

Like an ignore topic?

Just writing some code

I'm trying to access the beta but I keep getting a 502 error.

Edit: nvm, it fixed itself.

Due to some spam that the software wasn't quite prepared to handle yet, registration of new users is disabled for now.

*Now there is no UID for users ?

My guess is there will be an UID as well as display name link to the profile of users.
Since the display name can be changed, it is better to have the UID link to profiles as well.

Lol my guides are so mashed up: https://beta.bitcointalk.org/threads/AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABI7IQ/posts

Font size command has changed which seems weird - every previous instance has pt but now it rejects pt.
Viewable width is ~60% of what it was.
Anchor command has gone.
Table commands seem the same but not working.
Thread and post numbering has changed from numerical to alpha which makes it very hard to tell chronological order and prevents easily swapping between versions.
Search seems to be doing nothing.
Very little user stats or information.
No post history of users.

I was trying to navigate to my Manufacturer trustworthiness guide but its probably page 20 by now and can't get there via link, history or changing URLs.

Honestly, the most trivial thing that's messed up for me is the width. It's a huge difference from what the current software uses. It'd get any post like yours messed up (that and the fact that bbcode support isn't complete).

For Lauda : yes, that's what I mean. Profile becomes Profil in French or Perfil on Spanish. That could be an interesting feature I think.

I guess in the future, if theymos agrees, they can post the strings somewhere and let the community translate them.

Not sure why my comment was the only one to be deleted then.

Which one? Maybe your post is somewhat off-topic. PM me and let's see.

No one say anything bad about the new forum.

I'm not sure whether you are being serious or trying to troll. This thread is full of things that are wrong with the forum

What about translations of the menus, the buttons etc. ?

What do you mean by this? Translate the forum interface into other language?

No point in translating anything yet, as text strings are prone to change while in Beta.

For Lauda : yes, that's what I mean. Profile becomes Profil in French or Perfil on Spanish. That could be an interesting feature I think.

For Cyrus : of course, nothing to be done now. That's just a proportion for the future. I think it can be something nice to bring to the forum

So new functionalities are coming ?

They are already here, you just don't have the 'access level' to see some of them (e.g. moderator tools).

at first glance it seems too naked for me, i hope this is not even close to being the final release for the front

anyway when i go backwards to the previous page the scroll begins from up down, is this done on purpose?

*Now there is no UID for users ?
*Only the messages tab works out of these three :

also a hover popup displaying these tabs' names should be added.
*Now the user have to type all the BB code himself ?
It is missing some frequently used BB code's buttons like bold, italics, etc. which are currently available in older version at top in "post reply".
*Why is HR and BTC a closed tag now ?
*The BTC logo is (currently) not displayed, instead BTC is only displayed after using

Code:
