I should add, I think it only works with ProSilver. The older SubSilver2 style isn't supported.

It looks very smart but like Louise I use SubSilver2 also.
If it had the *latest post^ facility I'd be happy to change. Is it possible to encapsulate that?

ProSilver is the default Paphos Life forum style. It is responsive, so works on all devices, mobile through to desktop.

SubSilver2 is an older style, that phpBB no longer officially supports. However, some posters (about 7%) prefer Subsilver2 because it is more familiar, or because it has the "Latest Post" option, whatever that is.

I will look at the Latest Post option, and see about incorporating it. I can't imagine it would be difficult to add it to the quick links menu, if it isn't already there.

What I like about the SubSilver2 is that it shows the page on full screen, whereas ProSilver is showing large space at both sides of the page. Don't find any option to change that, but.... wil try to get used to it.

No idea what it is either?
Is someone going to enlighten us, I wonder..... I switched from subsilver2 to Pro and I couldn't see anything that resembled a Like button when I went into the posting editor either :?

Ta da - meaning...........

an imitation of a fanfare (typically used to indicate an impressive entrance or a dramatic announcement).

In the top right corner of any post made, just left of the avatar, I can see a Thanks button (along with report and quote buttons that have already been there. I believe that's what's been referred to.

Click on your name in top right just under the banner -> click on User Control Panel -> click on Board Preferences tab -> under My Board style click on prosilver -> Submit. You should then be able to thank.

Now I see it - but I don't like the layout of Prosilver because it doesn't automatically allow me to display New Posts....

I'm perfectly happy to stay in the minority with this.... when the board can give me the layout I desire in Prosilver, then I may switch ;-) but I also much prefer to see the avatars to the left as well.

Thank you, but I Don't Want Pro Silver. I am happier with the style I have like Photo Lady.

Surprised that Dominic says that only 7% of users use Subsilver2

I wonder what % of posts use which system??
