The theme coloring for dark mode has been adjusted! Now it should be a little easier to use. I kind of slapped it together quickly, so it will likely need to change when we make a more permanent solution, but for now it should make a lot of the harder to read text more visible.
The forums are up again! Migration to new forum platform
Tomcat - for translation of threads, we might be able to add something to help with this. I will add it to my TODO list of things to look into in the future.
Lot more readable now.
Question: does Markdown stick work? Or is it a different process?
SnapCracklins Question: does Markdown stick work?
yes, it still works.
Seems zip files cannot be uploaded.
cybereality for now, only image files can be uploaded. I plan to add more support soon, but to add uploads it requires regex-like input and I didn’t have the time to figure it out when I was setting everything up.
I like helping others, past versions had a tab for unanswered questions, is there a similar option now? TwistedTwigleg
There is also an arrow on the top left corner of the screen. If you click it or roll over it shows the most recent topics and the ones that have new posts or no replies are highlighted in white.
Tomcat cybereality Thanks

Currently there is not a tab similar to unanswered questions like how it was in Vanilla. This is in part due to there not being questions and discussions anymore, Flarum has them all as the same type: discussions.
As the others have mentioned though, you can see the replies to a topic by looking at the post count and whether it is highlighted or not to know if there is new posts.
In the future we might be able to add something like the unanswered questions page, but currently there is not a similar functionality.
TwistedTwigleg We have a plugin for selecting the best answer, similar to vanilla (though I have no idea how a best answer looks currently) but I didn’t realize I needed to set it manually. Now it is set on all the help tags and I also added a secondary question tag that can be added to any discussion.
TwistedTwigleg though I have no idea how a best answer looks currently
Maybe the answer, to be "best" should get some critical number of likes?

I think the “best” answer is supposed to be the answer that helped solve the issue, like how it was in Vanilla. The user who made the discussion can select the “best” answer (and forum staff).
I think it is better that way, as it prevents “best” answers from becoming a popularity-based thing.
TwistedTwigleg You are absolutely right - the best answer is exactly how it works.
That looks good.

Well, in theory there could be 2 things: the best answer as picked by the OP and the "most popular reply" as per upvotes, but we don't really currently have a up/down voting in here such as exists on slashdot or reddit(and i think the reddit godot community already fills that niche).
Also, at least on Reddit, the most upvoted post usually ends up being a joke or the incorrect answer.

I usually will "like" a picture of a cat (because I like cats), regardless of the post's content.
