Forum Upgrade Info - AKA: Why the forum looks weird!!

Post by Josh_PoloGTi »

All

Please be aware that the forum will be down for a bit from 7pm tonight so I can do some urgent maintenance on it.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

God I've messed things up!

I had to restore cos for some reason I can't upgrade the forum!

I'm going to do a fresh install of the forum software soon (don't worry, all the posts and topics will be retained!).

Sorry!!

Someone informed me that they couldn't sign up to the forum since I'd upgraded last night, so i've had to do a completely fresh install of the forum.

It'll look a bit weird for a few days until I get everything back in order.

Please bear with me until I sort it all out!

Right, I'm calling it a night!

I'll carry on on Friday evening...

Need to get the banner ads working again, and then a few behind-the-scenes management tools and I think we're about square.

Not bad for an evening's work!

Shame the upgrade I did yesterday c0cked things up so badly!

Thank god/allah etc for scripts and tutorials! :D
