Forum phpBB upgrade
PostPosted: Sun Apr 06, 2014 3:59 pm
Hi all,
we recently learned that our web hosting company is changing servers. The new server will only maintain phpBB 7 and above..and this forum is running on phpBB3 which is horribly outdated and probably the reason of some of the problems we have been experiencing.
Thankfully, Staci put me in contact with an computer expert who has developed phpBB previously and who is looking into upgrading Blue Cavern to an updated phpBB format.
This will mean that during the upgrade the forum will be down, as it also will be when the servers are moved.
And the forum will also change in it's looks . Not sure if we are losing any threads or pictures..we are backing the forum up so I hope we are able to recover anything lost during the upgrade.
This is just a heads up. I will let you know once I know when the upgrade will occur and of any anticipated down times
