As you can see the new MM2X Forum has launched!!
I worked hard in the last year for fixing the MM2x V4 problems, and i decided to Make a new Version starting from Scratch..

the new MM2X v5 will be released probably in August and the Forum was the first step to do... and here is it!

MM2X V5 Forum is based on the last phpBB 3 Version, and has a lot of enhancements..



the old platform was very old and buggy during the migration some things changed .. and some broke..
So here some F.A.Q. for the new bugs and the solutions:

as the old phpbb2 used a different hash system for the password storing.. and as results some of the passwords can't be read:
Problem:
I try to login with my old password and the forum tells me that is wrong
Solution:
Do a password recovery, insert a new pass and you can access without problems

Problem:
The bbcode in my Signature is not working correctly
Solution:
enter in your User Control panel -> Profile -> Edit Signature
At the bottom you can see 3 fields:
- Disable BBCode
- Disable smilies
- Do not automatically parse URLs
Remove the selection and click on "Submit"


Problem:
The YouTube Video in my old post does not work, after pressing play it show me an error..
Solution:
edit the post and save it again pressing "submit" and the youtube integration will work again

I'm saddened by seeing the forums in a very different way. But whatever, good work on the site.

Yeehaw! This looks like a Professional looking website :)

The older versions probably were better.. but you can't take off the fact they were Amateur ;)

I've found many of the new functions here really useful.. I can now add youtube links just by adding them! these [youtube] are now just gone!

i don't think the old versions were better.. this version is better, newer and safer :D
if you miss any feature just make a request ;)

you can now integrate almost everything in a post, not just youtube.. also a social post, just adding the url in the forum post

That's pretty useful. Now we don't have to put those old tags around our links.

I've read all the recent posts since the last site update, but since I can't read Area 51, I can't mark it as read, so it sticks out with a green "unread posts" icon. Is there any way to mark it as read without actually reading it? Maybe a "Mark all forums as read" link?

EDIT: Sorry for the double-post. I just want to get rid of that "unread posts" icon on the staff forum.

i just added a "mark forum read" link at the end of the forum list in the index.. just check if it works!
