** FORUM UPGRADE COMPLETED **

Uamf is now running using the latest release of phpBB 3.3.3 and running on php7.4. The newer versions of php are a lot faster than the old and combined with changes to the database everything should feel little bit snappier.

The forum default style is Prosilver Special Edition. We have also installed a 'dark' theme for those who may find it easier to read called Black!. You can change this by click the dropdown menu next your name (top right). Opening the User Control Panel, choose Board Preferences and there you can select you board style. Note that Prosilver Special Edition is the supported style and will get some UAMF branding soon.

There is no mobile specific style as they are all mobile friendly.

There should be no issues logging in, but if you do have them please first delete the site cookies; on a PC/Mac right-click the padlock the address bar.

Our familiar "smilies" are still available but you can now also use emojis which is nice if on a mobile device, but I'll never let them take my MrGreen away from me! :mrgreen:
