Wayne, as everyone else has said, a big thank you to you and the team for keeping this site modern and putting in the hard work.
A question, will there still be the option to hide the "left column" or recent threads column? I view on an iPad and with this column it makes it too small. I love that we can turn it off, I haven't had it on in years.
Also, a suggestion as someone who works in IT and knows that users do notalways hardly ever follow directions and are that observant
. I know you've posted it in this thread under General Board Information, but I doubt that many will see this. I'd suggest sending a mass message out to all members so they're more likely to see it to make sure their email address is up to date. I predict there will be mass hysteria that they can't login.

Glad to hear this, it just goes to show you if you squeak long enough you will get greased....
Will we be able to add our own avatars or have some to choose from?

Exciting!
Thank you for the hard work. I was on the implementation team for a new EHR for a large, multi-site hospital....you can imagine how that went. I understand the heartaches!

Maybe I'm overthinking this??
Post migration, your login ID (user name) will be the same as your current display name, so gizzsdad, in your case.

Doesn't Xenforo also allow you to log in with your email address, as an alternative to username?

Can I change this prior to migration?

Good question.
I'd like to change my user name and still keep my long-standing post count.

Well goody gum drops does that mean you're going to turn us loose like adults and let us edit our post for more than 30 milliseconds after we've posted?

Yes, you will have a longer post edit time period than 30 milliseconds.

ok, so I'm confused on what the Display Name is because the email suggests it won't be my existing user name? ..but wouldn't it be the same? MN Driver appears to be my display name and it's not customizable. It's also my user name here now, is it not the same for some people?
