It would be nice to have a new window open when clicking on a link. Can this be done through the user control panel?

Oh, THAT kind of preview a link. Can't you right click to open a link in a new tab or window?

There is no standard option for that in PHPBB3. We ran into so many problems when I added modifications to the old Deck that I am staying away from that. (Remember the good old days with Spelling Cow?)

These installations need to be upgraded frequently and many different files are affected in the process - often different files with each upgrade.

Then I have to multiply that by activity by seven.

So, sorry, if PHPBB# makes it available, it will become available on the Deck.

It looks like guests can finally view images and download attachments.

I especially care about the Clouds thread images, but more importantly, Jenn Pae's PDFs.

The problems with Pae's PDFs has been especially vexing because Pae is constantly working to inform Lakewood citizens about the state of the budget. This is extremely important to every one of us. If you have any questions, please ask. Jenn Pae can even explain things to someone like me who is especially math challenged.

Thank you for the suggestion. Apparently there is no way to make this an individually controlled feature, so I had to make it board-wide.

Thanks for letting me know about the change - it wasn't intentional.

Why are there some topics with no posts?

Because all the "missing" topics have been restored but not all of the "missing" posts have been restored.

Why is my post count off?

Because counts need to be reset as more topics and posts are returned and re-indexed. When everything is back, your old post count will also be restored.
