Some issues are trivial, like spelling errors:

"Tesing board" , "presists" ... you are right. Luckily those are just some .html files that can be corrected instantly once caught

Timezones are broken

They recently changed the logic behind timezone offset (so each user can set their own GMT+/- local time) Tried it a few times but worked for me. Not sure what to say on that front. Could not replicate it
This is the quoted post: https://coinbistro.com/threads/0ikKhHejRWmWWV3R8l6EgA/posts?start=37#NbTt-Mu4QJSXrWVezjRPyw - post #37 (post hyperlink does not take you to the actual post. Takes you to the top of the page. Used to work but got broken between lines of code. Would be fixed in the next release that should be merged in the next few days. They are working on some UI refactoring and was told that issue should be solved)

Some quote tags don't display post link/timestamp at all. I don't have a screenshot but IIRC it happens when thread ID has an underscore in it.

Nice catch! Even got a thread ID with underscore in the first try

) Will forward this and see why is it acting like that and fix it

Admin panel: created a category, created a board, dragged the board to the category, hit Save - board disappeared. No idea why. Next time it worked correctly. Then I started dragging another board, changed my mind, dropped it back into Uncategorized Boards - it disappeared. Drag-n-drop itself is clunky. The following board will end up in EpochTalk Testing despite me holding it on top of (or even slightly below)

Again... works for me. Those temporary glitches are a real pain in the ass because if you cannot replicate you don't know what to fix. Regarding the last part just seesm the break point is not at the middle on the category button. A few more mm below and would have worked as advertised.

And then there is usability... or lack thereof. I'm gonna give it the benefit of the doubt and assume I just don't know how to configure something, although I'd think it should be user-friendly out of the box. For example the post editor. On Bitcointalk you click a button - you get a smiley, you click another button - you get image tag, etc. Do I have to type everything by hand in Epochtalk? Image drag and drop doesn't work.

Currently has a legend and would need to type them urself. Some buttons and smileys would be a net asset. Will be added on the to-do list (if not already there)
Image drag'n'drop works on my end. Tested it with local storage and with amazon AWS bucket. Admin-settings-general-image server configuration try to tinker a bit there.

I haven't yet found a way to put two lines of text on top of each other without a blank line in between, other than to use something like a bullet list.

Has some faults there. Tried to replicate your post here: https://coinbistro.com/threads/0ikKhHejRWmWWV3R8l6EgA/posts?start=40#8twUqUb-T9GSfGYUHyDGjw post #40 . Looks decent IMO altho had to edit the post a bit. We'll be needing some rules for spacing. Ignore first new line after quote/img/etc. Will look furhter into it.
Still work in progress on that front. A bit hard tho as they set out to rebuild the SMF BBCode parser and is more than challenging. Even current devs at SMF don't fully know how it manages to work and has comments in the github source "// Hm. That's weird. Well, just prepend it to the list and let the user deal with it". But that's another story

If you put three hyphens on a line like this

---

The hyphens disappear... Apparently there is some sort of markup allowed (in addition to bbcode)

There is some strange voodoo with those hyphens. Will look into it. Thank you for pointing it out

Double-clicking the "Send Reply" [sic] button will duplicate posts (no warning).

Don't understand what button you're talking about...

Don't know about you but I found this to be very productive! Thank you so much for your input and for taking the time to install Epochtalk.
As I said before, any advice or critics is one more step towards the goal.

~~~

As a forum software it has some issues here and there but my personal impression is pretty good.
As the new house for bitcointalk ... there still is a lot of work to be done. But is achievable!
Thank you also for your assistance and hope you get some more free time now and again Tongue
