Hi @everyone !

Welcome back to Administrata v2.0! ​

We've been hard at work over the last few weeks to bring you this new and improved version of Administrata. We're extremely proud to see our vision come to life under version two!

The new theme is a throwback to the styles of the past - before everything became flat like today. It's inspired by a classic ZetaBoards theme, designed with responsiveness and performance in mind. We've also improved readability with better contrast and font sizing.

A huge thank you to @SarahKik for designing this version and @DohTheme for making it compatible with XenForo. There are still a few minor things to tweak, but those will be addressed soon.

So, what's new?​

• Collapsible header – You'll find a blue button to the right to toggle it.
• Events in the header – Stay updated with the latest happenings.
• Site of the Month in the header – Easily see which site is featured.
• Administrata Cloud – A new affordable service we're offering!
• Plus Recommendations – Free links for our Plus Members (not collapsible).

Layout Changes​

Our layout got some updates too! We've added new sections, made some enhancements, and refined things for a better experience.

So, what's new?​

• Monetization & Revenue Strategies – A dedicated forum to discuss making money from your community.

  • AI & Communities – Exploring how AI can enhance your forum.

I was watching this over on Doh's demo forum. It's awesome, and it definitely reminds me of Kik's styles from back in the day.

It was initially based on a ZetaBoards theme so going a bit back in the day was definitely the idea. It was a challenge for DohTheme making it work on XenForo, but I'm very happy with the results.

Just to note, I don't see the header with the events, SOTM, and the bubble ads. Is that permission based?

No, you need to toggle the button on the right, next to the scrollbar:

But we might have it toggled default. Still deciding on that.

I like the appearance as well as the changes being implemented. Thank you for introducing forum credits to be used for the payment for account upgrade.

Oh gotcha, it looks nifty. I probably would have it on by default, since you've got those ads there now. At least on the index anyway.

Good point. There's a few minor changes still incoming, so I'll add it to the list.

Enjoying the new design. Some small issues I've noticed with some missing elements.

The top one is likely a cache issue, should resolve itself in a bit. If not, feel free to report back.

The second one is indeed known and will also be resolved this weekend.
