Upgrade successful!

Back up and running! Still a lot of tweaking to do with buttons, colors and styles, but the data imported fine. Please let me know if you find anything wrong or missing. The look and feel will change over the next few days.

The forum is back up.....I no longer have to be in the corner in the fetal position sucking my thumb!! Looks good BTW!!

[giant pumpkin peep]

I agree.

Where's the 'User CP' link now?

[NasalSponge]

Just click on your own name in your post.

It is at the very top, right hand side of the page.

I'm happy to see the forum back up too! I really like the new look as well. Thanks so much to all involved, this has become an invaluable resource for those of us afflicted with this habit of keeping honey making bugs! :-)

[giant pumpkin peep]

will it look similar to the old once its all said and done?

[Barry]

As much as possible. I haven't had time to review all the controls, so I don't yet know what I have to work with. The colors will be the same, I'll configure/link all the icons and smilies we had, see what options there are for formatting. Users should check out their control panel to see if there are new features.

The great news for me is that the posts and text wraps and adapts to when you resize your browser window- YAY! no more cutting off of posts!
I'm sure you'll do lots of tweaking over the next few days. Takes a little adjustment visually, but I'm sure it'll all be great in the end.
Nice work!

[giant pumpkin peep]

wheres the chat?

[Barry]

The chat is third party and I will work to get it working after a few other items are done. It's not activated yet. (sorry Ed!)

[Gearhead]

Looks Great! Keep up the great work! I love how you keep developing and improving the site, unlike many other sites out there. Beesource is by far the best thing online for beekeepers!

I tried to send two Personal Messages, and they look like they've been sent, but when I checked the 'sent messages' section of PM, there's nothing there.

Not sure if it's a quirk of the new system, or whether I missed some sort of "save sent message" button, but thought you should know.

Cheers,
Tony P.

WooHoo! Love it- kudos Barry!

[Hivey]

It would be great if we could use personal "avatars" seen when posting instead of just profile pics.....or is that not possible or allowed?

[Solomon Parker]

Avatars, wouldn't do it if I could. I don't need another level of mask and anonymity. Real name, real picture, no hiding.

Can we search archives or older posts somhow?

[BeeCurious]

If the "old" forum had a "Beating a Dead Horse Smiley" it would have been perfect...

It will be nice when the "new" resembles and functions like the "old".
