    well I have just opted to view the forums using the new version and I don't think it is that bad. The only thing I find strange is having the tick/cross boxes on the left hand side rather than the right. I am sure I will be used to that by the end of the day though.

    The changeover is going to happen at some point anyway so i would rather get used to it now, than later. I am sticking with the new version.

    How do we opt to use the new forum BlueBella? I can't see anywhere to do this ...

    Thanks Sax. I can't see "Manage Forum Version" At the bottom I've got Desktop Version and Mobile Version. It doesn't matter which one I click on, I've still got the old version.

    Confused ...
