We recently updated the forum software. As these things tend to go, there were a few unexpected bumps.

When we updated, BBCode, the Gallery, Feedback, and Unresolved Swaps were not functional. They now are, hooray!

Now to tell y'all about the updates!

Forums had actually a really boring update - it just fixed bugs and was setting things up for the big update that's scheduled to come out in Q1 2011. I know, all that fuss and nothing changed as far as what we see! There will be a new skin, but that's independent of this update.

Blogs update is actually pretty big. Many of the changes were back end related, but here are some of the things you might notice!

• New "Like" system on Blogs and Blog Entries.
  
• Notification support for new blog entries, and new comments, so you can watch a member's blog or an entry.
  
• Uses a new comments system.
  
• New "Manage Blogs" area.
  
• Facebook Like and Twitter Tweet buttons on blog entries.
  
• Cleaned up design.
  
• Single column layout on individual blogs.

Gallery has returned to us!

Feedback / Unresolved Swaps / Price Caps / Cookbook all had backend updates that will let me start working on some cool things, but you won't see it for a few months yet!
