Putting this in here because I'm guessing people will jump in here to talk about it:
Okay I know you probably hate it already, but give it a little bit of time to bed in and let me do some more of the tweaks I have planned for it. I 100% guarantee it will be a better overall experience than the previous version of this theme.
Constructive observations gratefully received. Particularly if they have browser, device and/or screen size with them (screen shots also gratefully received).
If you are feeling adventurous on mobile the "desktop" view is now much more mobile friendly, and ultimately I plan to make it the main/only way to view on mobile (little way to go yet with that).

A few problems. 1) Chrome mobile - the page is too wide to fit the login at the top unless the phone is rotated horizontally. (Screen 2280x1080).  ...and with the phone sideways:  Even set to WQHD+ (3040x1440) it doesn't fit. Once logged in, it all works fine. 2) "Home" appears twice on the "Navigation" popup  3) Windows 7, 1280x1024 screen the home page doesn't fit horizontally and has a scrollbar. Possibly same issue with the desktop version of Chrome where the resolution is "narrow". Thank you for taking the time to try and bring things up to speed though. --Phil |

Thanks for that Phil, I'll have a look at the width stuff, there are a series of breakpoints where it hides and shows different elements based on screenwidth, there is a weird hinterland between "full size" on desktop and tablet sized screens where I don't have breakpoints. Will work on those. The mobile top menu stuff is handy too to see from a non-admin users point of view. That was the most recent thing I re-jigged and it isn't right, I'm going to look at a better way of structuring that. |

Apart from the Like button being on the left throwing me at first (used to it now, bit like getting in a car with the indicator stalk on the unexpected side), the new Like, Quote, etc. buttons are a welcome improvement. Likewise the rounded corner avatars look much better with the majority of avatars than the plain circle did. No complaints.

Is it just me that gets a weird gap on either side of the main central bar? The rounded corner avatars are a nice touch though  (HP mini PC running Windows10 on Google Chrome if that helps HoTWire) |

Should be this link to log in: login.proboards.com/login/2095273/1Although you are logged in when you posted that? Not sure why your image didn't want to work  |

I logged in via mobile and then requested desktop to get around the “issue” 😁
so it looks like my issue is down to an Old bookmark Hotwire?

When you are replying are you using the quick reply or the full reply view? Can you screen shot it for me, just want to make sure it is looking how I expect it to. There has always been an underlining at the bottom of a post, it used to be black, in fact there were two underlinings, one before and one after the signature box. Some of this stuff is obviously still subject to change, it is an evolving process. |

Screenshot from my phone i can do although having done that, the colours of the boxes in the reply option don't seem to work well, or are possibly blanked out  And I hardly ever use the quick reply option, and never use the mobile version on my phone (Galaxy Note9 and on Chrome)  |
