Not sure if all of these have been covered...
Features in old VBulletin Software not in new software
1. Search/view member list2. View Who's online (last on date?)3. Manage YOUR attachments4. Find Latest Started Threads (by you)  - Sort order5. Find Latest Posts (by you)6. No "Ignore List" capability7. HTML tables (as far as I can tell)8. No help / BB code tags9. Roboust managing of subscribed threads/notifications
I'm sure there is more...
I know a lot of effort was involved in picking the new software and migrating threads, but I am rather disappointed.

    I'd add that the rich text edit control doesn't work on Android. So I can use my tablet to post.

    Tried to search for help online, (didn't spent too much time). Most help is directed at developers, not users. 
    I'll miss BB codes.
    Need to be able to Search by name of Thread starter. My searches for a particular thread has come up with zero.

    I guess you meant "can't", MartinH.

    New 16cog... thread Views 237.2K
    Does it really have 1/4million views?
    The fonts are to big here and numbers blends in, I rather see 5100 than 5.1K views (both use 4 chars).

    Tony,
    I think quarter mil is correct.

    The rich text control does not work anywhere when you have a couple of pages of HTML to get rid of.

    The parallax folk have requested that a new thread for each individual issue be created. Search for threads with the tag "thread-issue" to ensure you are not duplicating something.
    Complaining about problems with the new forum software is great. I agree, it's complete Smile. But it's only fair to give Parallax the opportunity to fix it - and to do that, they need some organization.
