    Please post in here if you find any anomalies or things that aren't quite right.

    Post a detailed description, and screenshots if you can, and we'll look at it as soon as we can.

    Known fault - links for latest thread in each section on the homepage, doesn't take you to the topic.

    This'll correct itself after people have posted and brought a new thread to the top.

    Also I'm still importing bits over night, but the main bulk of it is here now

    Known problem. Mazzarri still in charge. Deeney still overweight. Has anything actually improved with this new website?

    Just to check, can everyone post as they normally should be able to?

    If not, drop an email to alex@wfcforums.com so I know

    When I know everyone is in and capable (!!) I'll put a post up briefly explaining what's gone, what's new, and what I'll try and bring back.

    Well observed, there is a reason for this though.

    I needed to get the forum back as quickly as I could, and finding a workable yellow theme at all (let alone one that wasn't garish or hideous) was tremendously difficult.

    Tapatalk isn't working. Not a big issue but worth noting!

    Yep - will be setting that up again, hopefully the mobile version of this will do for the time being.

    All post counts have doubled, when running the database import it froze when bringing across users, so I had to restart at that point which was fine as it merges every user that has identical names when doing it, but it did double your post counts.

    If I find a way of running a query, I'll half them all again but it's pretty low on my priority list for now.

    Yeah post count isn't an issue, just an observation. It does make it look like I spend too much time on here though!

    It's probably 150,000 if you add together all of his accounts.

    We are having some fun aren't we?
    Takes a bit of getting used to with my eyesight but doesn't look too bad.
    I miss a "new posts" button as this was my very frequent go to

    It's pretty horrible to look at - the list of posts is poorly defined and the buttons hard to see. Maybe it's just the colour scheme - too soft and blurry - but I'm struggling.

    Prefixes for thread appear with yellow font and white background. Unreadable.

    Not ideal, but will do for the time being until I can find something more suitable permanently.

    I'll try and find another temporary template to put available alongside this one.

    Thanks for the hard work, this is my most used site and as someone who lives outside of Watford it's great to talk about the club with other fans, otherwise I wouldn't get to do this.

    In terms of this site, my only issue so far is I can hardly see the top half of threads due to the very light grey and my cursor is barely seen.

    I assume vBookie will be unavailable for a while, if and when it's restored would that include the users' Orns balances will be restored also?

    It's more likely that when I find a suitable replacement it'll start afresh with a new monetary system.

    Thanks so much for your hard work, only issue for me is the new background colour theme, for me, it makes it hard to distinguish the text. .

    Agree with this. Find text very difficult to read on iPad. A different background colour would make a difference.

    Looks and works perfectly on my phone. Good work on swapping everything over in less than 24 hours and pretty much hassle free...from our end anyway!

    As irritating as my old avatar was flashing away, you can now see how poorly it was done with the white edging to the crest.

    I shall be selecting a new one in due course!

    Good work getting this updated so quickly SM, Meister and team.
