You contradict yourself there. Besides, anything different in v5 will be able to be changed with the new template system. v5 right now looks drastically different, but I'm sure come release it will look the same, or close to the same, as all previous releases. There have never been any complete redo's of the layout, only evolutionary advances. You haven't seen v1 have you?

I think it looks great. I just have one question...
will we finally be able to view all topics/threads since last visit? Or even just all topics/threads posted within the last 24 hours?
Please say yes!
I like being able to see the last 100 posts, because it give me a feel for the tone of the board, but it is so confusing for my members that it's their only search option for new posts. I just spent an hour looking through all the accepted/rejected suggestions and suggestion threads, and I don't see this mentioned anywhere.

I personally love each and every upgrade that has been done with my Proboards site, some of my members get a little scared when something new is introduced and some take a while to warm to the new additions, but most embrace it and others thrive on it.
I think the new introductions to V5 are exceptional and the people who have designed and put them together amazing.
Congratulations .... great job
Really looking forward to all the new options your giving up guys...

I just spent an hour looking through all the accepted/rejected suggestions and suggestion threads, and I don't see this mentioned anywhere. Search for this suggestion in the Suggestions Forum first, and if you see it try to post with your comments on the feature in order to encourage the staff to approve it, if you cannot find it, then just hope and wait. Chances are there are about 100 features that haven't been mentioned yet, and those 100 features may just improve one small part of the forum, there should be at least 500 or so minor features, 5 or so of them being really major.

2 things: - Wouldn't people be able to...
- Remove Google Ads from the HTML?
- Pose as Martyn / Patrick / Craig to make their post look like a ProBoards super account?

- Nope, as it'll probably be a html file that won't be okay to edit, and even if so, the TOS staff would be informed.
- Maybe.
Also, for the other question, there used to be a sub-board in general talk called that.

I've said it before, but I really am not a fan of the new interface. It looks really cheap to me. Well good thing you get 100% control over the HTML code to do whatever you want to it. Also, a couple of the page elements are off in the video and since have changed. For example, here's a screen shot I just took of the thread listing with "search" and "create thread" in the correct places. It's useful for things such as sending PMs, you can just type in a display name instead of memorizing usernames for everyone. I think it'd be even better if you could search posts for those people simultaneously and have it pull up a list of 'em? That way we wouldn't have to go to each individual profile and read their last however many recent posts. That gets tedious.

I finally got the video to load and play. came here and its on a YT vid Looks good so far. Nice new features. Any plans for an arcade mod ? A decent shell would be great and the ability to have a php score table. I couldn't see an Arcade link on the menu bar in the vid Good to put a voice to the face

A couple of years ago I stumbled upon Proboards and I very much liked it. I found it easy to customise, even for a novice, and I also liked the fun features it had for board members. There were 2 things missing from it though which stopped me moving my community over here at that time.
One was that it had no chatroom and the other was that it doesn't have Rss links. Both are very important to our community.
I am once again on the look out for a system to change to being that the system I have been using for many years has now become so buggy and extremly slow to load with no hope that things are going to get better in the future.
My immediate thought was to come and look Proboards over again and I truly would love to move my community over to here. But although it now has a chatroom it still doesn't have the feature of Rss.
Is it possible that Rss is going to be added to the new update. If so this will certainly make my mind up as to moving my community over here.

I'm sure they've considered #1. As for #2, technically that could be done now with JavaScript. Admins will be able to modify the repeated code for posts, but not single out a particular user as far as I know. The closest one could get would be to limit the mimicked code to staff in general. But that wouldn't be very convincing.

I really like it. When will it be coming out? I know not anytime soon because 4.5 just recently came out.
