We finally uploaded the long-awaited Forums update. Try and and let us know if you find any issues.
Note that we have exactly the same Forum for the next version of Dolphin (7.0.3), so do let us know your impressions.
This update brings a lot of improvements, visible and less visible. Some of the most notable:
1. New "Home" page that shows "Recently Updated Topics", wich seems to be the most convenient way to follow Forum updates.
2. Renewed "Forum Index".
3. Horisontal layout.
4. Moderation Features - moderators can hide/move topics and hide individual posts.
5. Speed. We removed more of the unnecessary AJAX effects, improved layout and some code pieces to make forums work faster.
6. Back button functionality improvement.
7. Possibility to re-order Forums and expand them by default in Groups
8. Delete entire Topic.
9. Focus to tinymce editor when quote link is pressed.
10. No-edit after some time.
11. Signatures.
12. RSS feed for recently updated topics.
13. New default icons.
14. Google-like loading indicator.
15. File attachments.
You will also find some smaller changes and fixes, and they're still coming. We have a few little things in the pipeline that we plan to add during the week.

HTMLPurifier... instead of a different post filter than the rest of the site?
HTMLPurifier - yes, planned.
(English saying, it means you are funny)
I suppose file attachment will have to do if i must.
A "Please Wait" screen with a countdown timer for any thread updates would be nice too. ha ha
Here's my suggestions going forward:
I think style needs to be changed and make it look more lively.
Secondly, I think all the main forum categories should be in the middle like before and recent topics underneath it.
Thanks for the great work and software :)
Thanks for the updates !
Most Of my customers need special member forums for diffrent levels and I don't so this will be happen in Orca/
IE will you be changing URLS again??
Will you be transferring all data over too??
Personally think that there is still some way to go. Will be interested to see how the new integration is executed
