Forum Update 4/1/25 - BelleNottelling - 04-01-2025
Hello, everyone
Over the last handful of weeks the forum slowly became full of many spam accounts and as of a result, spam posts.
I spent some time going through them and purge 61 accounts from the forum, bringing it back to a "spam-free" state.
Some additional measures have been implemented to help keep spam to a minimum, with the most noticeable addition being hCaptcha on the registration page.
We've also changed the default theme on the forum and allowed users to pick between a handful of choices:
- Curves UI: The default theme. It's one of the more modern free themes available for MyBB and works quite well
- Inspired (Dark): A modification of the Curves UI theme that was built for dark mode
- BootBB: The previews default theme for the FOSSBilling forum.
- MyBB: The theme that MyBB ships with. Very dated, but also very simple
Hopefully these updates help improve the experience of using the forum.
Take care, everyone!

There's another post about it, but essentially it boiled down to the previous crew member who was maintaining the forum become unreachable. That forum stopped working and we had no access to a backup so I started a new forum and wanted to try out a more traditional forum software

CurvesUI is great! Keep it like this.
I would only like to have the editor active when I am replying to a topic?
Or I have to post and after edit it to use editing capabilities.

The post reply button at the top of the thread loads a reply page with the editor.
I don't know why it MyBB operates that way, but it seems like it's intended to not have the editor with the "quick reply" at the bottom of the thread.
I'll try and find a solution as I do agree it's a bit cumbersome right now
