What phpBB style is this forum based on?

I looked around the site and couldn’t find anything. All I know is the site uses phpBB, but I’m really curious what the interface is based on.

I looked at some style extensions for phpBB, but couldn’t find anything that looks like this. Was everything hand-made just for intfiction.org? It looks so much different from the default phpBB interface. It seems really polished.

(I’m mostly asking because I’d like to use this style for a forum one day)

Actually we recently migrated to Discourse!

Hey, welcome @regakakobigman! We switched to Discourse at the end of February. The site is no longer using phpBB.

Oh wow, I had no idea Discourse was like this. I thought it was just for comment sections. Thanks!

EDIT: I was thinking of Disqus. I’ve heard of Discourse before, but I got it confused with Disqus. That explains it.

That would be Disqus:

And in the list of Dis* brands I always confuse there’s also Discord.

I’m certain I’ve inadvertently called this forum Discord before.

Especially those first 2 or 3 weeks.
