  Highly unlikely I'll be adding in an alternative theme, but I will work on improving all the layout and CSS. I'm hearing a lot about how the colours are horrendous, (I think they look good!) but might get Paulo to take a look.

  RE the CSS and layout issues, this is known and I'll be working on it. Just bear with us.

  The store! Well, for now, the store is not available! Even my purchases...

  The store is still available here:

  scirra.com/store

  Simply the forum has moved to Construct.net as a big step in transitioning everything over to Construct.net.

  Welcome to the new forums! We're aware of some issues which we'll be cleaning up.

  The forums have moved to Construct.net

  Our new forums are now hosted on Construct.net. The old forums on Scirra.com now redirect here. However the rest of the content on Scirra.com, such as Construct 2 downloads, is still there. Here are some links:

  Construct 2 downloads: https://www.scirra.com/construct2/releases

  Construct 2 manual: https://www.scirra.com/manual/1/construct-2

  Scirra Store: https://www.scirra.com/store

  Scirra Arcade: https://www.scirra.com/arcade/top-addicting-games

  The plan is ultimately to move all of those to Construct.net as well. However this is a big job and will take some time - until then you can keep finding them on Scirra.com.

  Known Issues

  1. CSS needs improving on mobile view
  2. CSS needs improving on post rendering
  3. Post formatting needs cleaning up on imported posts
  4. Page performance of main forum home needs improving
  5. Search feature needs to be implemented
  6. Username references need to issue notification
  7. Mods needs to be able to see reported posts
  8. Active users to be shown
  9. Pagination for topic too cramped when hundreds of pages of posts

  If you come across any more issues, please post here and I'll add them to the above list. Bear with us - it needs to be working before it can be made better :)

  Not for Construct 2, but we are planning on more free periods for Construct 3 like we did for the GGJ.

  The build service is part of the product not the product. Things break - but we're always learning and working out why they break then move forwards stronger for it. Locking this thread as it's run its course.

  Sorry everyone! This will be fixed when I upload a new version of the site in a couple of hours - and I'll look into making sure this doesn't happen again.

  Hi Sebastien,

  It's a good idea, but the addon exchange would be the wrong place for it. It's designed specifically for product addons, not demo/example files. I imagine the new arcade might be a better place to host these.
