Forum upgrade

[Muz]

Hi guys .. just to let you know I will be upgrading the forum to a new version over the next few weeks .... everything will be backed up to preserve our stuff,but theres always a snag or two that cant be forseen .. Whatever that will be,... will be short lived hopefully because Ive tried to eliminate everything beforehand.. but just to let you know .. plus it will probably mean you will need to remember your login details .. but dont worry .. if your browser wont let you back in just email me ... the newer version will be higher levels of security etc .. better for us all.. stay safe y'all

Sorry for any downtime lately, Ive been trying the upgrade system without success so far .. however.. ive always backed up our old system so we've always got something to come back to .. bit annoyed at the Vbulletin techs who I have paid to do the job and are just ignoring me .. no information.. no help and thats been a week now

**update .. think they are doing it tonight hopefully **

And another "Thanks Muz "

Well .. looks like we are done .. any problems keep me posted as always !!!

Dang got yourselves a new interface innit ? ... ... uh..... I mean ... yes will be some new stuff to learn, but you'll hopefully find it worth it

This is the latest VB forum software from the same folks that made the last forum. just that they stopped developing the old one so it wouldn't have got any other improvements or support.

First thoughts , It is shit ..Hopefully you can tweak it to get is back closer to what we are used to .

Thanks .. theres always tweaking to do, but what you are used to is old hat now .. and some parts of it such as picture uploading a resizing just didnt work ,.. and took me a shed load of work to keep the spammers out .. ive already moved artefacts about to 'soften' the blow ..

If you play around with the UI .. just about everything is customisable for the user
