Hi guys,

Please leave any feedback about the new XenoForo changes implemented here. Please feel free to add anything you like here, as well as suggestions for style changes.

Thanks

Thank you for keeping the old style Forge of Empires logo on the new forum - it really looks so much better (and more appropriate than the new one we are currently seeing in-game.


EDIT: OK, i withdraw my thanks - i guess the old style logo has gone :( :( :(

My guides are completely messed up btw, so please use the EN forums until further notice:

so the 'ordinary player' cannot edit or delete their own posts?
byeordie, you are going to be kept really busy tidying up everyone's mistakes for them then, lol - good luck with that!

I like the new forum overall
However I miss the 'Forum tools' menu (mark, search, rate), i.e. you cannot mark a specific forum read, now you can only mark all forums read or none

Try out the "New Posts" feature. That's what I actually use to link into the XenForo forums.

It works like a charm, and on the next go around the messages that you didn't look at will still be there, but below the bar.

The old forum works the same way...

You could not use "New Posts" as your direct link into the vBulletin forums, so the XenForo arrangement allows you to save a step. Overall, it seems to be much smoother.

Speaking to the original point, I seldom use the Mark Forum Read button in the XenForo forums, unless I've been gone for several days and don't have the time to wade through a lot of older messages.

Then we're both happy. For whatever reason the vBulletin software would not let me link directly.

We seem to concur that entering directly onto the New Posts page is a very effective approach for frequent readers.

Not being able to edit your own posts is crazy lol

Hmm I can edit this one, is it timed then? If so, how long do you have to edit?

Edited again to say never mind then :p

Ugh pink emojis suck.

Post editing, leave with me. You guys should have it, I need to mess with permissions to give it. I'm pretty new to Xeno, so bear with me :)

The logo has changed, yes. The new logo is the one being used going forward throughout the game.

When pushing the "Open Forum" button in the game, I get this message: ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.

However, when using the arrow in the announcement message, I can enter the forum that way ...

We are working on updating the in-game url link to the forum.
