I'm still not done, but I've spent the last two days revising my forum structure. Moved some forums around, rewrote most forum descriptions, and, well, I like thread prefixes. Let me know what you think. I might remove the color from all the prefixes. I also want to make them smaller.

NEW: https://tacoma3g.com


OLD:

I feel like I might be overwhelmed with all the color. Or with the three-dimensional styling. I could remove the color, make them flat, or do both.

Some options for less color:

@Russ killed it on my new dark theme option! The members are in love with this.

Aww man. That looks great!

I just made the switch to LiteSpeed. It seems to load fast for me but could someone that doesn’t have the site cached let me know how it feels?

Thanks. Yes, that is a widget that simply displays an image using HTML.

You remind me that I should update this thread. A lot has changed.

Cool, I'm doing something similar, would you be willing to share your HTML?

Thanks for noticing that. I don't know how or when they got messed up.

I know some people don't think page speed optimization is this important but I find it fun trying to dial it in as best as I can. I think I can still push these further though, lol.

Well done @sixlxvi.
92 and 99 for me. Do you use any addon to obtain this results ? Except FA Manager ?
Which rules on CloudFlare are you using ?

• Font Awesome manager (huge for this)
• Intense image optimization. Can be done with sites or apps like this: https://tinypng.com
• GA-Lite (Google Analytics Lite) or use something other than Google Analytics (also huge for this)
• Don't use Google fonts
• I don't use CloudFlare at all but I do use https://www.litespeedtech.com
• Try to reduce unnecessary CSS for guests
• Don't use fancy add-ons that make your index page heavier. If you do, at least disable them for guests

  • but it doesn't work for images that users upload, it's manual correct ?
• GA-Lite (Google Analytics Lite) or use something other than Google Analytics (also huge for this)
  • Did you see the last post of the addon thread ? What do you think ?
• I don't use CloudFlare at all but I do use https://www.litespeedtech.com
  • i can't, i'm on shared hosting
