Just one thing, the member groups list beneath Who's Online looks messy. Could it be put into two columns?

Not sure how to change that. I could probably ask the plugin author.

I noticed several changes on the right side of this forum including the new number counter 841 most visited online in this forum 8 hours ago. 

Why can't you just put back Who's Online section to the bottom of the forum page and leave the others as it is because those are okay to be placed.

You're correct, these were announced here http://forums.cncnz.com/topic/20575-ips4-various-forum-changes-updates-additions/?do=findComment&comment=231778

The the record of most online thing, that's a glitch I can't seem to fix, at least not right now. It seems when I moved the widget block, saved the changes, it changed the date the record of most online with it. The correct day that happened was back in 2012 or 2013 I think. Its not a major problem.

There was so much unused space on the right sidebar, as @Nmenth said earlier in this topic. A big empty area that bothered me. So all the stuff at the bottom of the main index got shifted. I feel it looks better this way.

New unfixed bug discovered. If you share a link to another topic or post in your current post a preview box will display, The box is mostly unreadable though. Until this can be fixed please click the "Your link has been automatically embedded. Display as a link instead" prompt that appears at the bottom of the Post Editor box.

Changed the colour of text in some areas from white to a shade of grey. Mostly on the main forum index and the text inside the Post Editor.

Got a minor issue editing the "C&C" in the chatbox. It winds up posting as C&C instead. Not sure it also happens in a normal post when you edit it. I think this only happens with the "&" symbol.

Just tested that, I see what you mean. I think it's something the Chatbox author will have to look at. I will ask them about it. For now if you use the "&" symbol you will just have to fix it up yourself.

Just noticed that if you hold your mouse over a normal member's name, it turns white, but over any staff or special member group names that aren't the default blue, nothing happens. It's an inconsistency, but a pretty minor one, obviously.

Can't really change that. This because the code the creates the colours for the user group colour essentially overrides the the default link colour and hover styles. It was the same on the IPB3 forums as well.
