New Forum Software

[Admin 3]

Version 3 has been out for a number of months now, and seemed about time to upgrade. The old site is still there for my reference and I've still got a lot of work to move all the additional components on to this site... but I'm working hard. Hopefully the upgrade is ok and I've moved all the right data over, which means that every should work! PM Mat-Moo if you spot anything!

Some users are having issues getting on the new forum, running ok for me and a few others, so very odd... working on it! (But I'm a tad hungover!)

Think that's sorted... might have a bash at the Garage conversion now!

I'd forgotten to update the "RHOCaR Membership" section to talk to the new database. This has now been corrected and updated, please let me know if you have any troubles with it.

I see a couple of people saying that they prefer the old forum software, which I find stange as every function on the old board is on this one and more. It may not be in the same place, and it may be called something else, but it is there. If there is something you can not find or are not sure on, feel free to PM me or ask in the forums, we are still tweaking as can be seen from teh recent chat thread about searching.

 

The upgrade was required as support for the old forum software is soo to be dropped. This means that if any security issues are discovered the forum board and the server could be compromised, which I can not afford to have happen.

 

I'm also trying to get the links database working again as well!

is it possible to make any links you open from a message open a new window, instead of directing you away from the forum ?

Done...(Rebuilding content for this to fully take effect, will take a couple of hours)
