12st December 2024 :: Forum upgrade

Post by Jools »

The forum will be offline from 1045 GMT today while we upgrade the forum to V3.3.14. These are mostly background/admin or security changes.

One interesting new feature is the ability to work through the whole forum and fix legacy BBCode tags. E.G. clog tags. As we have one of the oldest forums on the internet (it's pushing 22 years old), there are bound to be benefits in doing this, but it must be done manually and very, very carefully. Not one to do in a rush!

Should be about 30 - 45 minutes all going well. Will look at the BBCode thing later.

Full details of release v3.3.14.

Cheers,

Jools
