Is there a way to change the forum theme? The orange backgrounds hide text.

View attachment 498335

At the very bottom of any page, on the left side, is a small paint brush icon with a description of the current scheme you are using.

Click on the paint brush and choose a different style.

Do you guys have list of words that get censored by the site? And is there a way we can petition to get certain words removed from the list? Seems like a lot of words are on the list because taken out of the context of a truck enthusiast forum, they could be offensive, but you would have to put them into a different context to make them offensive. At least IMO.

Maybe there is a way you can configure the software that two words must be used in succession for it to trigger the censorship? That way a single word can be assumed to be in context of a truck enthusiast site.

Send those words to @G-Ride990. He is gathering a list for modifying the list of words currently in place.

How do I get the "MILITARY" tag on my posts?
I served 22 yrs in submarines and enjoy the little recognition I get from that.

Is there a way to enable uploading a picture in PMs like the old software? It was very helpful when trying to show someone where something was, how something was installed, etc.

It is on our list of software changes and enhancements.

Is this still in the works? Some how I got an APK app version of the forum through Chrome (not sure how), but I can't upload photos in PMs.

Just saw this article that may explain it ?? ...

How to save a website as an app

"Question: Someone told me that you can turn an ordinary website into a Windows program. In other words, it should behave like an application and you should be able to create a shortcut on the taskbar. The browser menus should disappear and you should only see the site itself. Is it true? Can I do that? If so, how do I do it?

Answer: Yes, that’s correct ... for some sites. This is called a progressive web app (PWA), and just as you describe, the site will behave like a program on your computer."

Was there ever a solution to adding the basics of your truck to your post: either at the bottom or under your name?

If you have a question, comment or concern regarding the recent forum software upgrade to Xenforo, post it up here.
I don't know if this is related, BUT for several weeks while reading most popular post on Monday, as I scroll down right side to read, my computer locks up. I have to go out of post I'm in and then go back in to read. I am member of other sites and this is the only one that's done it. I have switched from windows 10 to 11 and it still does it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "lock up"; did you try a different browser?
