    Hello everyone, welcome to the new Phlatforum! :)
    Trish and I are very excited to be a part of this awesome community and are happy to say we are the process of upgrading the Phlatforum to the latest, greatest in forum software to make life here on the Phlatforum as enjoyable as possible.
    The new forum software (xenforo) has a lot of really nice features we have not even begun to tap into. The core of the system is perfect for what we need here.
    As you guyz know, our database on the Phlatforum is huge. So, transferring everything over takes some time. We hired a company to help with this but it's not a perfect process.
    We also have noticed that links are broken. It seems like they are missing the : We are contacting the company who helped with the migration to see if they know why this happened. So, we hope that to be taken care of soon.
    We know transitioning can be hard at times but we feel like this was long overdue and became a necessity with the amount of spam we were receiving.
    We've worked really hard trying to get the look of the new Phlatforum to be as close as possible to the old Phlatforum. There are still changes and upgrades to happen which you should see as we move forward.
    We hope you enjoy the new Phlatforum. Thank you all so much for your patience and support as we work to build this awesome community together.

    Got logged on with a bit of difficulty. Exploring now. Will miss the view new posts link on the old forum but maybe there is a similar feature yet to be found.

    Hope this solves the spam problem. It was really getting to be a nuisance.

    Hi Flash welcome to the new Phlatforum :)
    I think the Whats new link at the top of the page should show the latest but not sure if it does that yet

    Anyone using Chrome? I seem to be having update issues with it. i.e. I changed my password yesterday, but today it didn't work. I reset it, and the reset link defaulted to Chrome, and didn't work. I re-did and copy\pasted to Firefox, and it worked there.

    These are the old spammers that were already in from the old forum, they were brought over as well. There are a few of them but once we weed them out we should be good on any new ones

    Good to see everyone again :good:
    We think you guyz will like all the features of the board.
    The best part is that it will grow with us. We access to the code in the back end so we can update and add tweaks here and there if need be.
