Hello all! As you can clearly see, the board looks a bit different than it did before. That's because proboards has released a new version, version 5 which we have upgraded to. Many things have changed between four and five, and it will take some getting used to. Overall however, I think it will be beneficial to us. As of now, Geneva Valley is currently in a transitional stage, meaning that not all codes are complete and not everything is finalized. So, the board may look a little incomplete until it's all up and ready to go. So bear with us. If you find anything that needs to be addressed/fixed please PM either myself (Eden) or Nat and we will take a look at the problem. Some things that need to be changed/resolved:- Money system
- Posting tables
- Sidebar
Thank you! Geneva Valley Staff

Alright, just a quick update on Proboards v5. It took a bit of time, but everything is back to the way it was before, just in an updated sense. All previous issues have been addressed, and here is the lowdown on that:
Money System: The old money system had become obsolete with the update, so a new system had do be installed. Unfortunately this new system is not able to record things that had been done before it was installed, so all money from before was lost. After figuring out how to edit money mount, I went in a updated the numbers for those who responded to the most recent activity check based on post count and if any transactions were made. I did not however, add any bonuses one might have gotten through advertising and whatnot, because that would have taken more time then what I have available.
Posting Tables: Unfortunately, posting tables do not seem to work in Proboards v5. I do not know if this is because there is new codes that need to be put in place or that there is coding in the tables themselves that need to be changed. Whatever the reason, I do not know what it is, and I do not know how to fix it. Sorry guys.
Sidebar: As you can obviously see, getting a new sidebar up was no real problems. It does however, have new content in it, and some content like the plot, have been moved. This was to conserve space.
If anyone experiences any problems or has questions about v5, feel free to contact me, Eden, and I will do my best to help you.

If I may only peak in to say- posting tables that worked in v4 will only need a tiny conversion to work with v5; the only significant change is the [style] codes being changed to [.div] styles (all the rest, ProBoards can convert automatically). I've become fairly familiar with the new way of coding so if anybody could use some help, I'd be happy to provide the best that I can!
Other than that, I'd really like to congratulate the site editors- neat job working with plugins! It looks very organised around here! ^-^

Ah, so that's what it is! Thank you for letting me know that! I should have suspected as much, seeing how I've noticed the [.div] codes everywhere else. Now that I have that insight, I might just be able to convert all the tables to work with v5.
And thanks. ^^ I did my best to make this place look as neat as possible.
