      @stephenw10:

      One further thing I've noticed is that there is no immediate visual difference between posts I've read and those that I haven't. In the SMF 1.X threads with new posts were shown as bold until I read them. This makes it very easy to overlook any new questions.

      Unread threads have an orange "New" icon, though the bold title was better.

      The new threads as bold should be working again (hopefully without any side effects :-)

          Functionally, the only thing I've noticed so far is that I can't tell who is lurking on a thread[โ€ฆ]

          This should be back now, too.

            Also, if possible, more contrasted between background and topic table. Maybe border ?

              Not sure I follow on that one. Where exactly? Can you post a screenshot with the area highlighted?

              Anywhere I can see that lists topics is already fairly well contrasted (white or very light grey background with dark red text)

                      I'm not seeing any contrast issues on any of those, they're all pretty well-differentiated light/dark. Which exact part of the screen are you suggesting should be modified? (circle it in the pic)

                        It seems to me to make a few darker border as main page.

                          Sounds more like you need to replace the broken monitor or stop setting it to 150% brightness.

                              Not sure if it's only me but when looking through the unread threads I always focus on the username which is in bold but not on the thread title which is not bold. Should be the way around I think.

                                You mean the "started by" part?

                                How does it look now? Just the title should be bold now.

                                    "Recent unread topics" are all unread. I'm talking about the actual list of posts in a specific board.

                                      One suggestion to help vs forum spammers, is to try ZB Block.

                                      We had big problems with spammers on our students forum, and now it have stopped about 12.000 in 3 months and no new spammers have been able to register :)

                                      Otherwise like the new layout, seems faster for meโ€ฆ and looking forward to pfSense 2.1ย  ;)

                                      Regards.

                                        But not on unread posts since last visit. I am not sure if I really understand. Couldn't it be look the same as in the screenshot you posted? Of course "read" posts are not bold and of course not listed in "unread posts since last visit"

                                          We had Stop Forum Spam on the old version and it worked really, really well. I'm not sure what we'll do now, but I've already had to stomp on a couple spammers today.

                                          We're also looking on enabling HTTPS, a "thanks" system, and tapatalk as time allows.

                                            No, if you look at a list of all unread posts, they are all unread, it wouldn't make sense to bold them all there, since they could never be normal on that link/list. The username being bold isn't because it's unread on that list

                                            There may be a way to "unbold" the username there but it doesn't appear to be quite so easy as the changes I already made. If I stumble onto the fix I may make it, but it doesn't seem like it's worth spending a bunch of time on.
