When I upgraded from IPB 2 to IPB 3 couples months ago, I am not getting many new members much anymore and even some active members stop using it.. my forum died pretty badly.
When I got some feedback from the users, I realise the new default skin put them off.
Most of them felt the new skin is commercial/business style and it does not suit the celebrity (sport) fans community.
So which Skin do you recommend (something similar to IPB 2 Skin) as long its regular updated.
Skinning up your forum is pretty much on you. If you dig around you will find a few very nice skins you can use for free till you get a better solution. You can also get Paint.net for free and edit up any images you want including logos.
As far as which people to get a skin from, your best to check into their reliability because some people are so busy they forget to upgrade or take care of the small things that make your life easy as a admin.Best of luck to you, this is going to be a long couple months for many of us.
Download: [Unsupported] (IM) Twitter Sidebar v0.9.9
in Marketplace
Posted
After reinstalling the Twitter Sidebar it worked. However I could not find any controls in the ACP to do anything with it like control the size or use it as a feed to the forum.
What I'm looking for is a Feeder that can be controlled by Mods that will show our Twitter Channel to anyone who looks at the forum including guests. This is important because we need to get weather updates and emergency services feeds through Twitter to provide to the forum members. Of course one should not rely only on Twitter for Emergency Service Announcements but it can be a good tool for sharing information.
For this I need something that can be adjusted in size and fixed into place but I want it in the side bar as I have a big empty space there now.
