New Forum Software!

[Russell at IceTV]

Check out our cool new forum software!  :-)

We're hoping it adds lots of great new features and fixes a few bugs with the old system.  Those of you that are active on the forums may want to click on "PROFILE" in the tab bar at the top and check all your settings.  While you're there, also click "Notifications and Email" and check to see if the conversion program got all your subscribed topics correctly.

This software allows you to subscribe to individual topics or to an entire board.  While viewing a topic, click "NOTIFY" in the tab bar on the right and it'll send you emails when messages are posted to the topic.  Or to subscribe to a whole board, click the name of the board (so you can see just the list of topics inside that board, not an individual topic) and click "NOTIFY" there as well, to have it send you an email when any new topics are created on that board.  (to subscribe to replies to existing topics, you'll have to subscribe to each one individually -- definitely room for a new feature there if you ask me)

There's also a pretty good Help System in this software, so just click the HELP tab at the top if you get lost.

One issue we're looking into is that it sometimes seems to display the "New Posts" icon on the boards list page even though the board doesn't contain any new posts.

If you find any other problems with the new forums, please post a message on the General Discussions board, or send us an email at support@icetv.com.au.

The new official address for the forum is now:

Thanks!
