Hey,
Currently working on fixing all of the minutiae of ProBoards to make it feel more comfortable and akin to the old board. To apply the new theme go to Profile > Edit Profile > Settings > Forum Theme > Dark (TESTING). This theme only applies to the desktop/mobile version of the site and not the TapaTalk app. I've added the following capabilities to this theme only (although some are universal board changes that I'm sure you'll notice):
NOW, with that said, there are still a few things that I need feedback and help with:
1) Need someone to design a header banner for the new board (also could probably use a new browser icon .ico file and a new background image, just in case there is complications with copyright with B9). If you're a designer and are bored, make us new shit! BIL.
2) Still trying to figure out ways to work around NSFW guidelines so be cool about posting weird nudey shit for the time being
3) Was entertaining the idea of making a sub-board for sports threads instead of having them be in the main hub. Is that dumb?
4) Does anyone see ads on this board unless they are using TapaTalk? (PS, ya can also just view the board in a mobile version using ya regular phone browser, which I think looks better than TapaTalk anyhow)
5) Do we ultimately wanna keep the "...Member" titles for # of posts? It's fun for now but I'm just throwin it out there
Feel free to post in here with suggestions of what else can be done with the board to make it more seamless. We'll try our best to accommodate but keep in mind that I ain't a coder and ProBoards is a bit more restrictive than phpBB. I'm applying all of these changes to this theme ONLY for the time being (the others will still be available but will not have the same capabilities unless we decide to manually apply them to all of them).
THANKS FAM! Luv u xoxo

This theme only applies to the desktop/mobile version of the site and not the TapaTalk app. I've added the following capabilities to this theme only (although some are universal board changes that I'm sure you'll notice):
- Like/Dislike system that tracks thumbs up/down (NOTE: only works on desktop version)
- New emojis (NOTE: still working on em, only works on desktop version)
- Spoiler tags button (NOTE: or can use [ spoiler ] like before on old board)
- Embedded links button (NOTE: can embed directly from YouTube using "video" button, can embed SoundCloud using "audio track" button, can embed directly from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc using "embed" button)
- Hashtags (NOTE: use [#] on a word and it will track every usage of that word through the forum)
- Thread descriptions (NOTE: sub-text below thread title to describe threads that have ambiguous titles, haha)
- Moved "Participated"/View My Posts page to the main header (NOTE: you can disable the little link off to the top right of the page that intiates a pop-out version of it by going to Profile > Edit Profile > Settings > Show Participated > No)
- Added page numbers to the bottom of thread pages
- Added a board navigation bar to the bottom of thread pages to go back to the board from the last post (NOTE: only works on desktop version)
- Browser icon added (changed it from the little blue PB that is shown in ya browser when ya bookmark the board)
- New default avatar (RIP Riqq Brophy)
- Added the flier background from old board
