Rolled back

Post by Crystal » Fri Feb 13, 2015 11:31 am

You may have seen that the forum was out of commission for a couple of days. I was attempting to upgrade to the newest version of software for this forum, but unfortunately the newest version removed too much functionality (our calendar of events, our gallery, etc.), so I have rolled the forum back to how it was before attempting the upgrade. Because the database backup I had the option of using was a little older than the moment I paused the board, you may find that a few posts are 'missing.' I apologize for this and hope that it does not cause too much disruption.

Someday I hope to upgrade successfully (since the new software version is supposed to be faster, mobile-device friendly, and with better security), but I think I will need to wait until the developers release more 'extensions' for their newest software version so that we can continue to enjoy the most important features we have here.

Sorry for the inconvenience!!

Yeah, it's not worth getting rid of all these features. Thanks for trying Crystal

Thanks for trying, Crystal, but I am glad we still have the Calendar. I think it is so helpful to those members who have no idea what is available to them in the way of marts/shows.

This is the first time in a long time that I've been able to get on the forum without being dropped off every time I clicked on a topic. This is great for me. I don't keep getting "website not found". It was impossible to post anything before or even log on. Thanks for making the change.
