Some font characters are broken
Which ones?
It appears that only the color picker and delete cookies icons are broken, only question marks. I can even use the admin control panel with Retrozilla.

We wouldn't actually lose them, they'd just be unavailable for use under the legacy theme.
Which is probably done intentionally to prevent said extensions breaking old browsers/OSes.

@mjdxp: Woah... talk about 'backwards compatibility'. Always good to lower the amount of hurdle-jumping for access for something like this, unlike MSFN who seem only to listen when their ad network whines at them to do something.

It just shows an error relating to the markdown extension when I load any page with the legacy theme enabled. I'd have to either disable the extension, or modify it, and I don't know how I'd even begin to modify it.

Ended up removing the extension anyways. to speed up load times.

Running within 3.11 with the latest and most stable browser supported (Opera 3.62) Technically you can interact with the site but wouldn't really call it usable, trying to get to actual posts from other users will end up in blank pages. But never the less it is pretty usable.

For the sakes of Google (hopefully) being kinder to this place on the SEO side of things the 'eclipse.cx' domain always enforces a HTTPS redirect - admittedly, it's a 302 redirect and not a 301, because I had intended at some point to make a basic homepage there, however I forgot to do so. The subdomain however does not enforce such a redirect at any given point, so even if you are redirected from the root zone level, just remove the 's' from the protocol in the URL form.

Also, I did not know about the ?style trick to load the Legacy theme, that's actually quite a nice find. Did you find that reading phpBB documentation, studying the $_GET parameters of the application files, or somehow else? @R3n

The theme preview option appends ?style=# to the end of the index page, and it follows you around as you use the forum.

Looks like my UAP doesn't really work in SVGA. That's a shame /s

In all seriousness though, nice. Have you tried with posts with pictures?

I dont know about that. I am sending this over HTTP (in IE8). The only things I've seen that DON'T work over http is clicking the "home" button at the bottom, and clicking the logo at the top. Those two things redirect to HTTPS. I've been told that fixing those two things is apparently not possible, which seems extremely peculiar.

You complain of the supposed disrepair of this forum, yet you are causing some of it yourself with...confusing...lewd comments.
