Hey group we are upgrading the forums

[hissy]

I will let you know just when this will happen. There may be some downtime (but we hope not). Since the move to the larger server the forums have been working well, loading pretty fast and we have only had a handful of mini crashes as we worked through all the technical problems surrounding such a move.

Thank you all for your patience, your loyalty to this website and the community it supports. You are all appreciated so much, because all of you combined, you ARE thecatsite.com!

Definitely a good thing to know! So I don't blame my computer, which comes in for its fair share of blame, LOL!

haha you sound like me. why was my phone bill late? oh cause my computer was super slow and i had to turn it off and let it reboot a million times (forgetting the fact that i actually recieve a paper bill also and was just too lazy to write the check put a stamp on the envelope write out the address and go to the post office to mail it)

i hope everything goes smoothly!!

Thanks guys- looks like late Saturday evening is the upgrade date. Version 3.5.2 is coming up.

There will be a 30 minute alert posted prior to the conversion.

 

[wellingtoncats]

Thanks for the heads up! Hopefully I'll be working!

Is it just a forum software upgrade, or will there be changes/new features, etc? i.e. will there be new and fun stuff for us to play with?

 

[sillyjilly]

Hey!!! I find new features everyday as it is!!!

 

[paul m]

Good evening boys & girls - this is your pre-upgrade warning.

I plan to start in about 30/45 minutes - the forum will be offiline during part of the upgrade.

Cheers,

Paul.

 

[hissy]

Thanks Paul!

 

[paul m]

Part one - the software and database upgrade is complete, however you will find a few bits still not working, these can be worked on while the forum is open again.

 

[hissy]

Cool we have invisible buttons right now. I can't see them, the reply buttons the edit buttons etc, but if i go where I know they should be, and click there they are-


Thanks again Paul we are over halfway there.

 

[paul m]

Everything should be complete.

I'll check back tomorrow.

I've noticed a couple little issues in the last few minutes... The Quick Reply button isn't working. It's putting all of the smilies in HTML code instead of VB Code (could be my User CP settings, I haven't checked that. But if it is then everyone's User CP settings have probably been reset). And it doesn't allow me to break up my last post into paragraphs using hard returns. Nothing earth shattering, but things that probably need to be tweaked.
