Sister forum’s , The Fly Fishing Forum , format changed this morning .
Are there any plans to follow suit here ?

Yes - we changed the software because a lot of members were reporting problems with speed and performance with the Vbulletin software we had before.
If we see improved performance and no major issues then we would consider moving this forum as well.

What do people think - time for a change or are you happy as things are?

Looks like ease of posting photos has improved , which is a definite plus , but still no easy way of sending photos in a pm.

Have you discarded old posts on the new FFF hosting platform?

I was googling a topic yesterday for example. it's still cached in google search, but the link takes you to the new platform and "nothing" there.

I hope not brian, I was just on the FFF on my phone and to be honest I'm not a fan of the new set up, took me long enough to find out how to log out, hopefully this forum won't change to the new format on the FFF

 

[Kirsty]

No - old posts should still be there. We haven't removed any content, just changed the software. Please could you send me a link to the missing posts if you still have it?

Kirsty - sent you pm explaining.
(Haven't tested this issue for other thread searches btw.)

Just a heads up guys - it transpires as yet there’s no Tapatalk support on the new FFF format.
No harm in having an improved browser solution, but please recognise admin that for many of us Tapatalk is the only platform used to access (many) forums in one place.

Let’s hope SFF doesn’t go the same way.
