New theme is missing the little directory thing at the bottom of this screenshot. I mean it has one but it's all the way at the very bottom of the page. If we can get that in the new theme I'd like it more.

P.S. Don't mind the lore that I was looking at at the time...............

Can you clarify exactly what changed with google docs? I’ve been pasting from google docs for years, so I’m curious what the change entails.

Sure! So when you copy and paste something from google drive into the Editor on the forums, it will attempt to use "Rich Text Format" or .rtf, which is essentially a way to save the styles (such as bold/font size/font color etc.) from your pasted text into the editor.

Now Google Docs supports this format, but it converts it into their own GDocs format. So when you copy something from Google Docs over to any program that supports Rich Text Formatting, it will mess up some of the formatting.
You can test this by copying something from Google Docs into Microsoft Word and Vice Versa, it will mess up the formatting like font size and font weight.

In order to fix that, we needed to implement a plugin that looks at the stuff you have pasted and checks if there is any GDocs formatting, and then manually converts that to Rich Text Format.

I hope this explains it somewhat, feel free to reach out incase something doesn't make sense :)

You may not have noticed as some browsers worked fine for this, but chrome in particular always screw up formatting when copy-pasting from gdocs

New theme looks great on mobile. Now... perhaps can we get Member Titles working?

From a website that didn't update it's front page for 7 years to multiple updates fixing the functionality of the site. Good work!
