Regarding PMs, the only restriction we have is that guests are not allowed to send them. But there was seemingly a bug in the anti-spam mod we use which prevented newly registered users from sending PMs. I have updated the mod to the latest version and tested making a new account and sent a PM directly after. It worked fine. So can you try to send a PM again to verify that it works?

It is time to upgrade the forum software from 2.0 to 2.1. It is a bigger upgrade than usual so I wanted to notify you before I do that. You can read about the changes here.

One of the big changes is that it will now be responsive, i.e. work better on mobile devices. You can also save drafts.

It will be a slightly different look but still very recognizable, I think.

I am planning to do the upgrade early next week.

I have not found a way to change the numbering system. I am by no means an expert on this forum software but I think Herman is right, that this is relatively primitive compared to others. This is free software after all.

You do however have access to advanced search. Simple search is enabled by default but there is a link "Advanced search" under the search field. Maybe that can be of help.
