Forum Upgrade

RE: Forum upgrade

That would be the case if there wasn’t the need for the data to be transferred also. If we were to leave the old forum going all posts after the import would be lost, unfortunately there is no way round this, we will try and complete the transition as quickly as possible.

RE: Forum upgrade

Hello everyone.

I’m on holiday in the states from tomorrow until March 3rd.

In case I can’t find you again after you’ve moved, I’d just like to say thanks, it’s been fun.

It will be a new rating system in terms of the software we use, but yes you will all keep your current ratings, Good, Bad and Neutral ones.

The new forum software has all the features that is avalible on the DCForum we are currently using

RE: Forum upgrade

Sorry to linger on the small details but will it be a completely new rating system or will we retain our old ratings? Also does the new forum type have any new features or lack any that we are used to on dcforum?

RE: Forum upgrade

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 20-02-03 AT 07:52 AM (GMT)]Yes you will be able to keep your post counts, and ratings. However the ratings system may not be avalible to start with, but it will become avalible.

RE: Forum upgrade

Posts will be dere….ratings wont.

RE: Forum upgrade

can we keep the user ratings and the posts?

RE: Forum upgrade

if you’re talking about php, I don’t have a problem with it, and graphics are easily integrated.

RE: Forum upgrade

Is it going to be the same forum we saw a few months back?

RE: Forum upgrade

Boss

Thanks for the advanced info.

May I request that you arrange for a reminder a bit nearer the time of the shutdown / transfer ie: the day before…in BIG FLASHING DAYGLO LETTERS…cos Im sure a few will forget about it (me included !)

Hope all goes well.

As Dr Peter Venkman (AKA Bill Murray) in Ghostbusters said…”See you on the other side !

Cheers

With respect if you want a stable forum that works then I think a short transition period of learning a new board structure is a small price to pay… do you really come here cause it looks pretty… 🙂

As I manage to get onto the AFM forum less than 20% of the time I log on I think this is a good and necessary change.

RE: Forum upgrade

Good…these problems were getting too frequent.

RE: Forum upgrade

Damien makes a good point!Is there no way the new one could be established and chekced before the old one goes out the window??
