Forum maintenance
« on: May 08, 2012, 03:34:45 AM »
Sorry for the small downtime. I had to upgrade the forum to the latest version manually. I have another big update for the forum, but I will wait until tonight or sometime soon to do it.

Thanks Excursion! Those manual updates are a pain!

Sorry about the down time this time. Performing an entire database dump, transfer, import, forum install, upgrade and tweaking is somewhat unnerving, a little tedious, but rewarding as we are now upgraded to SMF 2.0.2.  :thumbsup:

Most of you had favorite features from the previous version of the forum, I know, some will be coming back, others gone for good. You will see them reinitialized little by little in the coming hours and days.

Pretty cool! I've only noticed some transparency issues, and the emoticons aren't showing up but otherwise YAY FOR UPGRADING! XD

I was worried you wouldn't have been able to keep the database if you did upgrade, but I always knew you'd figure it out. ;)

It took me about a week of testing trial by fire. I downloaded the entire forum and database and installed a working copy locally on my hard drive using WAMP then upgrade it piece by piece to see what screwed up the forum database and what didn't. It was worth it as I am happy on the upgrade as it gives us better stability and control of the forum.

D'aw...I'm gonna miss the new look. It seems we've reached the end of an era, my friends...

...and the beginning of a new one.

I can respect that. I tried to keep things somewhat familiar though, so at least you can take a little solace in that. Without change, this site would still be a warehouse. Without change, we wouldn't have all the good people that visit us on a daily basis. If nothing changes, nothing changes! Think about that.  :P

this is going to take some getting use to.  :|

For some reason the forum has all the oldest posts and whatnot at the front.

That was me, I was messing with organizing the forum posts (alphabetical for the data base) but I found that as a side effect it made all the other forums organize buy oldest posts first. ItI fixed it within seconds of initially setting it up.
