    m.boards.ie still works...

    Broken for me, homepage displays as normal but when you click on a link it opens the full vbulletin site.

    I Keep on getting the "Our Terms of Use have changed. Please click here to review the updated Terms of Use. " but when I press the I agree it is doing nothing

    That was supposed to have been fixed last week, I presume this is on the touch site?

    m.boards.ie on anything but the home url looks different now...very white

    the first screenshot is how m.boards.ie looks on the homepage and the second is how it looks when you click into any forum or thread.

    please back the nice calming blue and grey

    There's no thanks in Helpdesk, that's normal behaviour.

    Sorry for delay in responding but I've no idea what version I'm on

    And quote does work for posts unless I do [quot] myself

    Thank guys, we'll look at the m.boards issue this morning and see what's happened.

    Thanks Niamh.

    I must admit I always find it kinda funny how you guys have to "see what happened" when you make changes and suffer unintended consequences.

    It kind of gives me a mental image of boards.ie infrastructure being the Chinese Room thought experiment (or perhaps lots of Chinese rooms).

    To be honest I think the lads would agree with this summation of vBulletin!

    Used legacy skin with "dark or black" theme for years.

    New skin set to dark at the moment.
    Text is just not clear enough. And i like black backgrounds so the light option for the new skin is no option.

    And for that reason i have gone the "read all new posts" in 1 go more in the last month than in all those years before.
    Cant be arsed to strain my eyes.

    Another thing that is annoying is that i cant have 2 browsers side by side, same size on my monitor as i used to be able to do with the old one.

    From all the things you could have gotten rid off, the legacy site was the worst pick.

    On iPad everything is white. Old menu at top gone. Hard to navigate as not used to this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,258 ✭✭✭✭Vicxas


    So are the only 2 themes we have now are the default and the dark one? Any way to get the legacy layout back?

    We removed some of the old, lesser used ones but there are still two older forum skins available if you go to https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/profile.php?do=editoptions, scroll to the bottom of the page and where it says 'Forum Skin' choose 'White' or 'Boards.ie Beta'. These are the older skins - they might be closer to what you are looking for/used to.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,641 ✭✭✭Luap


    The white will have to do. Will miss seeing Homer Simpson tho.


    Tis very white

    On m.boards.ie I seem to be getting a "page not found" response quite often when I click the menu item for subscribed forums - https://m.boards.ie/subbed.php

    It does not happen all the time.
