Bittersweet Forum Upgrade!
Posted: Mon Apr 06, 2020 9:49 pm
Hey all!
You may be surprised by the drastically different board appearance... folks who have visited in the last few months may have noticed that they could not post and lots of errors were popping up everywhere. The previous forum software version only runs on PHP5 and many hosts including mine have now deprecated that software. All of which means that I needed to upgrade to the latest version, which doesn't support the old forum theme ;___;
The current theme is temporary and chosen just because it has similar colors to the old one, but I might be able to tweak it to suit what I need. Either way, you'll see the forums slowly updating in appearance over the next month or so, but at least for now they shouldn't be broken anymore ^^
Sorry it took so long to get the upgrade done, I had to research the issue and then backup my backups so nothing was lost if everything exploded when I attempted the upgrade instructions ><
Luckily it all seems to have gone well an there are many new features I can play with, but let me know if you all notice anything not working correctly or missing and I'll look into it!!
