Hi GTD Connect members,
The question about "why not roll back?" to the previous version of the forum has come up several times. The software that the forum runs on is called vBulletin. We were using version 4, and upgraded to version 5. That upgrade is integral to the overall new site. The new site is not just a change in design. It's an entirely new content management platform (WordPress rather than Drupal), and still has lots of custom coding. The vBulletin upgrade wasn't optional -- it was a requirement to have the forum integrate with the new site. There isn't a way to roll back to vBulletin 4 without rolling back all the site changes. The forum is definitely where most of the bugs are. Since the forum is one part of GTD Connect, and one part of the overall site, we're still on the path to fix bugs and improve the forum usability.
And, there are new features members have asked for, that we'll be introducing in this version of the forum, including more personalization, social media integration, photo/video support, and more.
So keep the feedback coming, and thanks for your patience during the transition.
Best,
John
