Hi all,

I'm looking for feedback on our forum on www.pigsback.com, an Irish based website please.

I have been reading the FAQ's and ideas and suggestions on this website, but unfortunately, not being blessed with either time, creativity or know how, I'm not too sure on where exactly i should be looking.

Can anyone gine me an example of a similar up-to-date forum url where I could get ideas from. The whole idea of the forums are to be Community oriented, and so I'm looking for ideas and suggestions on how to improve:

* Community Interaction
* Design and Graphics
* Ideas for headings to distinguish forums
* Colours etc.
* any MODs that I could use?


The link to the site, which I had forgotten to include (d'oh) is www.pigsback.com/offers/268673122/default.asp" target="_blank">http://www.pigsback.com/offers/268673122/default.asp

**** This is a reason that I get in so much trouble sometimes ****

Thanks all. Much appreciated

Couldn't find the forum on the site, Darragh, is it live yet? One of the first places you should look for inspiration is the Hall of Fame which showcases the best implementations, customisations, etc. of Snitz.

That site won't work correctly for me thanks to a bad choice of file naming in the top part of the pages.
And as MeTV said, there's no link to your forums.

Cute, but you should update to the latest code.

Nice implementation, interesting (and unique) color scheme and a seamless integration into your existing site layout.
Good job, I like it.

What would updating the forum to the latest code do for it? How would it improve it?

This may not be the best place to ask, but is there an easy way to find what members (who log on by their e-mail addresses) have logged on as and what their passwords are?

Thanks for the compliments...

You won't lose any topics, replies or settings, however you will have to re-install the MODs you have installed now (except sticky topics, which is included in the base code of the latest version).

Upgrade instructions are included in the readme:
