We've been up-graded... The damage doesn't look bad at all.

I don't think your upgrade is totally finished yet. I was told it wouldn't be done until you don't see ther /v4.5index in your URL. I'm worried since Books & Chat is upgrading at this time and I'm loosing features hand over fist! They tell me these won't come back on line until the upgrade is over...*Dianne is leaving to glean more info for us*

I don't know, Dianne, but according to the thread AJ posted -- the v45index means the board was upgraded early. Does this mean the url will change once again at some point in time, like it did on Eldorado?

I'm going to have to read that thread again, since like I said I've lost a lot of feature sand was told that they would (hopefully) come back when the up grade was done. And I've been lead to beleive that it's not done until the bit or extra URL is gone. *sigh* Back to ProBoards for clarification.
AJ - you may find that a code that I put in and Craig refined (Ashmadai has either the same or a similar one) isn't working with the upgrade. Unfortunatley since Craig really was the one to install it, I can't pickpour which one it is so I can't post it. I don't know if this is an upgrade problem or my own problem. It has to do with Sub-boards and mouse over abilities to click on it and be taken into the sub-board.

I think there are two codes which I can get rid of with this new up-grade, but I am not sure which code you are talking about.

What do you mean ... add you name to list to be up-graded? I thought it was automatic. Off to ProBoards to investigate.

When they put the servers online to be up-graded, your board gets a notification saying it is to be up-graded. They then allow you the chance to up-grade it early or you can wait until they get around to up-grading it. |

Listing of all users online over the entire day is now available. Calendar entries displayed at the bottom of the page are now in date order. Gradients can be automatically generated for your forums colors. Ability to add a poll to an existing thread. Ability to set default listing order to a board. Ability to request a forgotten password by email address has been restored. Category access can now be granted based on membergroup and/or post count related ranks. Improved page jump, decreasing load times on large boards/threads/member lists. Other small software fixes (eg "on Today" now displays as just "Today"). |

Thanks for the list. Looking good.
I have a board on 102, and now the v45 has gone from the address, the problems I had went away. I'm glad I did just leave it now.

I find that the new up-graded page finder (page jump) thingy blows the big one LOL!!! It was so much easier to have the drop down menu of pages so you could just click on the page you wanted.
We do however, adore the additional character limit.

Yes, it takes ages and is fiddly now. I think I have to write more in future, just to make use of the character limit!
