New Community Platform coming next week

[edit: updated timeframe for release]

 

Hi everyone,

 

Next week we will be transitioning to a new forum patform for the Norton Community. Earlier I had invited everyone to test the new community, and the time has come to move over to the new platform. Thank you to the folks who signed up to help us test as well. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

 

You'll notice some differences - the layout will be a bit different, but the content will still be the same. Some parts of the community will be gone, while new ones will be implemented. You will see some different options available when posting to the community, and the Rank structure will look a bit different, but hopefully it will be easier to understand.

 

We also have included Responsive Design - the ability to view the community on Desktops, Tablets, and Phones easily with consolidated menus and modules for the smaller devices. The site will respond to your screen size and orientation, and that will be helpful as more and more people are using those devices to access the community.

 

I also know that when something new comes along, there are things that don't work right. And there will be things that you specifically don't like about the new community. There may be things missing that you found helpful, or added that you think aren't necessary.

 

We want your feedback to matter, so if you see any of these things, please send me an email (visible on my profile). I'd like to know exactly what issue you're seeing (screenshots are helpful), what is wrong with it, and what would work better. The more detail on what is wrong, why it's wrong, and how to fix it is appreciated.

 

Thanks again for your feedback, and I look forward to hearing from you about the new community.
