Now this is something I can get excited about. I get the Phoenix updates that David Clark , started in THIS THREAD, does that mean I get the V6 updates now ? Thank you. Yes, if you subscribed to the email list you will receive email updates. Hi Matt , Responsive design means that the webpage automatically adjusts based on how big your screen is. This means that people who visit a website on a desktop computer get the same website as people on a mobile device, except that the page adjusts itself to fit the smaller screen. You can read more in this blog post. Thank you VS Admin i have one more questions, will proboards forums get all the features or will lots be forums.net exclusive? and it's good to hear that plugin authors can still offer their work for free All of the features mentioned are for both ProBoards and Forums.net, except one. The easy account switching feature is ProBoards only because it is tied into the ProBoards Global Account system.

Thanks for all the hard work - Looking forward to the open beta to test our forums on the v6 - I guess this will work much the same a v5 open beta did.. Steve

David Clark, I have to ask... Azy and I [us guys & a girl] want to know what inspired the "Phoenix" name ... We wondered if you guys named it after Faux

Quick Query - I've already got a skin on Equestriad that's 'responsive' (read its responsive within proboards current limitations). Would I need to redo everything to get this as a V6 theme? Currently all forums have ProBoards v5 themes. Even if you have heavily customized it, it is still a v5 theme. After v6 launches, you will have 18 months to switch to a v6 theme. So yes, this will require that you make updates to your theme. However, this will come with some huge advantages. The new responsive design not only comes with tons of new upgrades (including our new WYSIWYG that allows mobile users to attach files). Right now people visiting your forum on mobile are viewing the basic mobile website. They have to click "Desktop" to switch to your custom responsive theme you created. With the upgrade, all of your visitors will start from the get-go in the awesome responsive experience. This means an overall better experience for your visitors. When you try v6 I promise you will love the upgrade! Thanks for all the hard work - Looking forward to the open beta to test our forums on the v6 - I guess this will work mush the same a v5 open beta did.. Steve We will be making announcements in the future in regards to our beta plans. For now, we are happy to say that there will be an open beta coming that you will be able to participate in ahead of the v6 launch.

I'm so going to apply for the beta!
I'm confused with the themes thing, so we can have a v5 and a v6 theme on the same forum? I thoughy how it worked is that the entire forum just converted to V6?

David Clark , I have to ask... Azy and I [us guys & a girl] want to know what inspired the "Phoenix" name ... We wondered if you guys named it after Faux As I'm sure you know, a phoenix represents rebirth. We view this upgrade as a rebirth for our platform with a fresh new design and great new features! Kudos go to Zachary Guerrero on the awesome logo he created! It's so awesome that plugins will finally work on the mobile view, that makes them a 100000000000% better We're excited about this too!

Hi Matt, Go ahead and check out the FAQ in the original post, this issue is addressed The answer is yes, you can have both a v5 and a v6 theme at the same time. It is the same as having multiple themes on your forum at one time right now, you will be able to pick which theme you want to use. This means you can work on creating a v6 theme while keeping your v5 theme as your main theme during the 18 months after we launch.
