I had to fix a third-party accident but it was not possible to use again our legacy "GUI" after the reparations.
Don't worry: we have something nice that was already in the making, but not yet finished.

A few functions are not available anymore like the "mark unread" for posts and PMs,and some smileys must be re-implemented. Also some features to highlight text or for text layout are gone. But new functions will appear too, with replacements when possible.
So what happened?
We asked the datacenter techs to check for the cause of a slow-down. So they did, and it seems fixed (routing?). But there was a confusion (I assume) with another ticket of someone else, and, in a row, someone also kindly performed an update of the PHP language that makes the forums work along with some stuff. (We don't ask for software maintenance.) Nice but no... Our stuff was not compatible with a very recent version, and that caused several issues. Folding back to our previous version couldn't fix all those issues. So I had to restart from scratch, perform a massive update, and add a new software over our 20ish-years old legacy data and history that I preserved, so we could be up again very fast.
So we're on a temporary solution at the moment, bit working.
