    Hello DP.

    Please cast your eyes over my new forum and please make some suggestions on how it can be improved. It was started just a few days ago and I'm running XenForo with XenPorta and Showcase add-ons. I am trying to keep add-ons minimal but will consider adding anything which experts feel would be beneficial.

    Please consider layout and functionality. As I say, it's very new so the content is limited. That will come with time.

    Additionally if you have suggestions on promoting the community beyond Twitter I'd love to hear the suggestions.

    This is the site: https://blogboards.net/blog/

    I found the lettering quite small and difficult to read as I didn't have my reading glasses with me. I much prefer welcoming sites that take into account the fact that not everyone who visits will have 20/20 vision.

    Why you are redirect your home page to https:// blogboards. net/blog/ .... Its not good practice .... If you can manage your blog page at home page means at https:// blogboards. net/ then it would be better for your and your site also.

    I'm trying to work out how to drop the /blog from the root URL. It's a feature of the XenPorta add-on and I haven't managed to fix it yet. I've contacted the developer.
