      Thanks Ivor. If it's a manual toggle then I can imagine everyone will always be offline except Netgate staff.

        @kom likely! :) I think that feature is more a signal for chat availability (which replaces private messages).

          I'm certainly online, I think I had to to toggle it once to invisible and back to online.

              I like that I can ignore certain sections of the forums by default in the new and recent feeds. For example I have no interested in reading the international support section.

                If you set your status to 'Online' it will show green when you're logged in and grey when you logout again. Like Slack for example or like SMF did.
                NodeBB now gives the option of not showing active if you wish.

                  And what happened to our reputations?

                  The karma and such didn't carry over. NodeBB also lets us disable downvotes so we can all have a fresh, positive start. Also on NodeBB you upvote posts and not people directly, which seems more appropriate.

                      My first impression was that it's a bit weird but when I saw that I could browse forum while responding to message at the same time, I was pretty impressed. Add instant notifications to that and a very responsive GUI, I started to love it. I actually look forward to find cool new features our ancient forum was missing. I think first impressions might be negative, at first, because it's a first big change after so much time.

                          @kom about reputations, we're working on a few ways to point out those who had a good reputation, a lot of posts and karma. We had to focus first on getting the forum migrated, now comes the fun stuff.

                            @grandrivers you can select a skin if you go to your profile settings.

                              You can change the skin to a dark theme or whatever color you want. Click your avatar in the upper right and then click settings, then choose another skin. :)

                                  This isn't PHP, if you hit that it's from a bad redirect. We have a fix for that pending next time we restart the web server.

                                        Ah, I see. Glad I'm asking all the obvious questions that will hopefully help some others.

                                          No such thing as a bad question here, this is new to all of us, it will definitely take some adjustment!
