General Suggestions and Ideas

The homepage slowly became a copy of other defence forums: the same categories, titles, and colour scheme. We should have just installed the same skin to make it easier. But I am happy we are winning as we now have 5 tabs compared to 3. Good job

Sir @PakistanProud Ma'am @RayKalm

Please reduce the number of posts per page from 20 to 15. It is too long to scroll on one page.

Sir my English is not very good as I use Google translator then change it in my own words. I was pointing one negative comment and one positive comment but the translator mixed it up.

Still not able to comprehend. But I suppose it was a good feedback.

Sir it was a compliment. Please fix two issues

• Reduce the number of posts per page from 20 to 15
• It should go to the last post when I open the link as it goes to the first post each time I open the thread. It is annoying this way and hopefully, it will improve User Experience after implementing these two changes.

Gracias

@TheNewb77, Xenforo forum UI sorts thread posts chronologically by default, where the oldest posts appear first while clicking on the thread. It differs from VBulettin, where the admin can change the sort order. I believe there is a Xenforo plugin that can make the newest post appear first, but one must test it to confirm, as Xenforo doesn't include this feature by default. @Malang is requesting this sorting feature, I believe.

Sir every time I visit this website, I see a new forum with new colours and layout. Is this a new feature? How can I disable it?

Thank you Sir and Ma’am, Gracias

It is a part of the routine tests, as this forum is still new. Web admins have to perform specific tests to optimize the forum UI.

May be enable the default skin of xenforo if no other skin is installed and work with this skin however you like. I don’t like dark mode so please don’t suggest the dark mode version

You can switch between dark and light modes by clicking the crescent and light bulb icons as shown below:

Yes, we're still working on updating the dark mode UI to match the light mode.

The dark mode UI has been updated to reflect the light mode. @VCheng Let us know if everything is fine.

Hovering would show it but perhaps this is better:

The color scheme is fine. The dynamic sizing of the menu items and boxes varies between devices for some reason. I will report back once I know a bit more.
