Apologies for the downtime today. What was supposed to be a 7:00 AM to *not late* AM update went into the *too late* PM zone. It was definitely a :banghead: but we are getting through.

Nothing from our staging site has come over. @Jeff Kershner and I are hard at work repeating a lot of the stuff that was already done. Please hang tight as we work through things. However, I haven't seen too many functionality kinks.

There are some design kinks like the Blog and Forum not feeling like a singular entity yet. That should happen tomorrow. Speaking of design, what do you all think of the smaller font?

In the meantime, there should be some quality of life enhancements you can enjoy immediately as we continue to make the full redesign a reality.

✨ AI Highlights

DealerRefresh completed a major website redesign on 2019 that launched after unexpected downtime, with the admin team working to rebuild lost staging content while addressing design refinements like integrating the blog and forum. Community feedback was largely positive about the cleaner aesthetic and smaller font, though one user requested the restoration of member achievement badges and experience categories that were removed due to platform compatibility issues with Xen2. The key insight is that while the redesign was well-received for its modern, inviting appearance, some legacy features remain on the backlog pending technical solutions.
