You may have noticed a couple weeks ago that BTF's user experience improved a little bit. We went to a beta release of a new forum version. This morning we upgraded to the final release. Mostly small improvements, but FYI here are the changes (via xenforo):

Hi everyone! We didn’t really celebrate this, but I just realized that this past April, BTF turned 10 years old! It’s been amazing to see BTF evolve over the years.
Obviously, conversation on BTF is a lot different and less than in its earlier years. I’ve been talking to a few people who want...
Before launching this, a bunch of us were talking on the facebook group (join here if you're not in it yet) about new initiatives that could kickstart activity in the bhangra community. Each of these needs people to actually make it happen. Chime in below if you have another idea, or what you...
Welcome to the new BTF! Many of you have tried it out recently as I ran migration tests. All (280,000) posts have made the jump over to our new forum system. What are the main reasons we switched over?
- Log in with Facebook, and overall tighter Facebook integration. Turns out this whole...

I'm trying out a few things that could be really helpful for discussion and team engagement on FB-- i'd love to include you and get your opinion on it. Thanks

On twitter, #2 world wide, #3 in the US currently. Just thought i'd point it out, kinda crazy. I'm not the biggest fan of her humor but hey, it seems many others are.
P.S. - AUNTIES BE LIKE [ ]
Is anyone on college teams now a design student or friends with any design students? I'm looking to make consistent but individualized themes for Bhangra Teams Forum, Raas Teams Forum, and Classical Teams Forum. This would likely include logo tweaks, color palette selection, forum skin/theme...
I migrated BTF's 230,000 posts to a new platform called Xenforo. I've brought this up in the past, but really quickly, the reason to change platforms is
- the current platform (SMF) has stagnated tremendously since 2011 and is not keeping up with any forum or internet traffic trends
- the new...
I'm starting to test the new forum platform, and we don't yet have a Media Center there. However, I'm seeing more and more music getting posted to the Music Board that's linked to SoundCloud or YouTube, rather than attached files.
This means the Media Center itself has become less important...
Hi all, I need to do some work on BTF in support of the upgrade task. There are about 70 people on BTF right now so I can't do it now. Tomorrow for about 30 minutes in the afternoon I'll make BTF read-only so I can do some testing.
Anyone an (even beginner) Android developer or iOS developer?
