Just a recommendation, do the upgrade on a test forum before you do it to your main forum. Heheh that way you can iron out all the bugs of the install and make it smoother here. When I did my updates I did it on my own personal server (iis, mysql, php on winxp) and then it took me only about an hour to have the forum all back up and running nicely! http://someforum.dontexist.com I think it turned out pretty well. Good Luck with your updates!
We do that with every update. You will see mods and super mods listed, but if you also notice, we have developers as well. Typically Mike sets it all up and we all run the mock forum looking for errors, and suggesting changes as we see fit
Which also happens to be the same as the "officially live" forum on the back end... So it's not like we drop out for a week.
Looks like a pretty impressive list Michael. Should be a pretty good upgrade. And I think everyone will appreciate Geo finally getting his multiple badges and whatnot
