HMGForum updated with many new features!

Post by Rathinagiri »

Hi all,

Today we have updated our forum software to the latest PHPbb version 3.1.3 (2015-02-01) with the latest bug/security fixes. Have a nice time.

Following are the new features:

1. Use maximum width of the browser
2. Showing stars equal to the number of years the user is with the forum.
3. See preview of first and last post of every topic in the topic list.
4. See 5 similar topics in the bottom of topic view.

Enjoy!

S. Rathinagiri

If you have a WIDE screen and want to increase the width of the forum to the fullest browser window, please

go to user control panel -> Board Preferences -> Edit Display Options -> Use maximum width: With "yes" the board is able to use the full browser window width.

Now we see a similar topics list of 5 topics related to the title of the current topic which would be very useful. For example, if you have 'MySQL' in the topic title, 5 topics with MySQL in their topics will be listed in the bottom.
