Q: I run 1.x. How do I upgrade?
A: Back up, then install the 2.0.0 archive over it from the Admin CP. Games, ratings, reviews, libraries and lists are kept, helpful votes are copied to XenForo's vote system and screenshots become attachments in a background job. If you edited GameHub templates in a child style, revert those edits after the upgrade.
Q: Will it fit my style?
A: Yes. Since 2.0 every page is built from native XenForo components, so it follows light, dark and third-party styles. The fourteen decorative style properties of 1.x are replaced by five rating tier colours that default to your style's own colours.
Q: Do I need a RAWG account?
A: No. A free RAWG API key lets members fetch cover art automatically, but typing a game in by hand works without one.
Q: How do members link a game in a post?
A: With the Insert game button in the editor: type a few letters, pick the game, and its card lands in the post. The button sits after Media and can be moved in the editor button manager.
Q: Can it run beside BoardGameHub?
A: Yes. Both add-ons run on the same forum without touching each other, with matching cards and one button each in the editor.
