Re: Bugs, Security Flaws and suggestions
On what project is MIF working right now?

Probably working and also doing Mathopolis and perhaps more.

On what?
I do not know if that is possible. I have never worked on a forum before.
I can help you go through it. Or better yet, Stefy can.

Is he employed as a mathematician? Wow!

Re: Bugs, Security Flaws and suggestions
You've created a forum before.
I was saying that if MIF is busy with dark secrets of the universe, you can help him installing the new software.

"Making" that forum required me to sign up and press a few regular and radio buttons.

I've created a forum by uploading code and extracting plugins. The experience is slightly better.

Therefore you should be the one to help MIF.

Re: Bugs, Security Flaws and suggestions
I do. I was just joking.
He might be able to help. We should ask bobbym to ask MIF to ask Shivam if he can help.

I wouldn't use the word great, but I can program. What is a 3013?
Well, by background I am an electrical engineer, technically speaking, and am pursuing a biology BsC now.

Re: Bugs, Security Flaws and suggestions
Don't think migrating a forum that big is easy at all. It might take months of planning, why not give the theme a upgrade? And add mathjax in?

Re: Bugs, Security Flaws and suggestions
Hi;
The forum already has its own latex plugin. True, mathjax is the standard but I think it is a little funky for FF users.
I agree about upgrades to the forum.
