Can I ask what version of vBulletin the forum will be upgraded to ?

 

the latest version 3.8.4

 

Nice !

 

For users who require more info - Link

Hope this helps

Qs

 

Some of the new features are highlighted in the 3.8.0 release info here

 

Appreciated.

Didn't realise the forums were only on 3.6.11, hence my previous post.

Bring on the new features eh?

Qs

 

there are the new features from 3.7 but I cant seem to find the post in the vbulletin forums!

 

First look (more detail)

List of features

There ya go.

Qs

 

There is this info here on 3.7.0 but I dont know if you can see it if your not a member?

 

Looks like we found it at the same time. LOL

 

Got the full whack too (see second link)

Qs

 

You'll break it...

 

Am I allowed to ask where, for the two hours that the site is down, I can continuously post defamatory comments about a broad range of Training Providers and ask for free legal advice?


Or is that a little too cutting edge??

SK

 

Well, Certforums are on LinkedIn

 

you could always ask the same questions on networking in a variety of different ways and then start bending everyones head with some broken english and nonsensical babbling. Then you would be Kobem the destroyer. or atleast his mate

 

The upgrade to the latest version of vBulletin is complete, there are still some template issues that need to be fixed and I will continue to work on these over the next few hours.

Not all the new features are online right now, as new features and tools will be added gradually once we're sure they'll all work well together. Now the forums are back up, there may be issues with certain permissions, tools and/or settings. Please be patient during this time.

Please do not use this post any troubleshooting queries or bug reports with regards to the upgrade, we will be asking for such information to be posted in the Problems, Suggestions & Comments forum once testing is complete.

Any announcements will be made in this thread.

 

I've just given you some rep for not breaking it...

 

I'm having a break for a couple of hours now. I started this at 8:30am with backing everything up and uploading all the files, I need some lunch and the fridge is empty so I'm off to the supermarket once I'm dressed. LOL

Dont break anything while I'm gone. hehe

 

Not sure if you are aware of this, but the first post of every thread contains an advert on the right hand side of the post. Is this deliberate? Also contains an advert section below it too, but that was there before.
