Pinned Featured news Major Updates

[CMiller]

Our forum software provider just pushed a major update to the forums adding upon an already great platform. We've waited a few days for the bugs to be worked out and are satisfied with the results.

As such you might find some features in different locations and the user experience slightly changed. 

We also pushed a major update to the look and feel of the forum, this is a unified experience that enables a "light" and "dark" look to the forum while visually using the same elements.

 

Please use this forum post to report any bugs or any features that seem out of place.

Is there any way to change the font on either the users end or your end? The change to a serif font is a little jarring

Omg yess! The serif is soo weird. Can we get our old font back?

Agree, the new font is smaller and more difficult to read, at least for me.

You cannot change the font in the default Dark Theme. However, You can change the theme to "Oblivion 4.4" which has a font without the serifs. To do that, scroll all the way to the bottom of any page in the MG Forum and click on "Theme" and then select "Oblivion 4.4". It's not as dark as the default theme but it's still a dark one. And, the arrangement of the header of the page has the notifications, email and profile all squished together on the left side of the page. It's not an optimal look and arrangement, but the font is what you're looking for. Give that a shot.

You will find the notifications, email and profile area at the header on the right side of any page on the MG Forum.

I'm guessing you're set to "Default light"- changing to tne MGS theme puts notifications right where they were.

Unfortunately not seeing the notification buttons you mention. Only 3 buttons that show/filter activity. Top right is a search button, add new activity.
