Dear Bluelight Community,

We appreciate you bearing with us over trying times in recent months (years?) as we struggled along on our vBulletin software. We have reached a point where we had the funding and capability to move the site off an aging software and into a new, fresh environment. We do this with the expectation that many of the problems we've had are resolved, though if some persist please make us aware in our Support and Technical Help (STH) forum.

Our goal was to get the site migrated and back open for business quickly as possible. That meant bare bones launch, accepting some functions or features would not be ready immediately but could be addressed in coming days. We have succeeded in this effort with the new site you see before you. We will update as we address remaining concerns, and intend to roll out additional features and options over time to further improve your enjoyment of our community.

There are many functions that remain, but may be slightly different than how we used to implement it. For most of you, it will be an intuitive adjustment as Xenforo is common on many sites you already visit. However, there will be an ongoing effort to update our Greenlighter's Guide in STH with new screenshots and a few how-to instructions for things that may not be so intuitive.

Lastly, recognize some links may still need to be updated, especially if they relied on our old BLWiki (another vBulletin add-on we haven't tackled conversion for). For things like the Bluelight User Agreement (BLUA, our site rules) we will likely implement something within 24h to support that need, and we'll build from there. If you find things broken, please report them or make mention in STH. Likewise, if you find permissions are off (like you can see or do things you shouldn't, or are prevented from things you used to be able to do), please let us know in STH so we may quickly address the issues.

Thank you, welcome back. Let us know what you think of the new place ?

A few key issues with the upgrade we will address over time. We felt these issues should not hold up re-launch of the site and getting the majority of users back into the swing of things with the new site.

First, our Front page where we published articles is bare for now. We're still working out the conversion from an add-on for vBulletin into our Xenforo environment.

Second, BLOGS also had issue converting from a vBulletin add-on into Xenforo. We hope to have these back in operation soon.
 
There are a number of accounts where the name could not come across due to special characters. IF your account is one of those, you can see here what your username has been adjusted to be:

Does anyone else have issues starting a conversation (pming)? I can only reply to people who I have already established a connection.

And do we have post limits? ?

---------------
tathra's edit

seriously? I shouldnt have permission to do that here
 
I just noticed that we can't (or I can't figure out how to) delete PM's Convs / Quote Notifications. Do we have the same Box limits as vB? ? Like 500 for reg mods❓
 
Well there it's an issue already and it has to do with the avatars. The display before was 50x50 and I guess no more than 10kB or something like this. For me I only use gifs as profile pictures and it seems that it's doesn't work.

Click the little mail centre box at the top of the screen and then "start a new conversation".

Click the box I just mentioned above to enter your conservation/pm, select the checky box for the relevant pm and then at the bottom of the screen select the drop down box and "leave conversation". This has the same effect as deleting a pm; it leaves your box, but stays in the other persons.

For this we need "ImageMagick" on the server, I'll find out if we do.

I have only just recently returned to visiting Bluelight and i must say that i am impressed with the new look of the place, very smart indeed.
 
click the 3 lines in the top left, and then Forums to go to the forum listing

Also, when I click 'quote' (as I have just done) it doesn't actually quote the message, it just posts a reply. Plus, how do we multiquote?

You can go through the thread and click the "+quote" thing on each post you'd like to quote. Then when you're ready, go down to start typing and hit "insert quotes".
 
I mean for changing colours. Sorry if I'm being obtuse but it's been a shitty day from wake up until now. I have a hard time seei g the forum with these soft pastel colours.

thx for any help.

Tom
 
Hi Tom, we have a BL Dark style you can choose from the bottom left of any page. Do you find it any better?
