Advance Downtime Notice

[mqudsi]

Sometime soon (most likely Sunday?), NeoSmart will be down for a while as we perform some long-delayed updates.

PHP, MySQL, the Wiki, the forums, & the bug tracker all need some updates; and I may take advantage of the downtime to push out a custom version of the Image Gallery to handle the ever-increasing traffic (the gallery is the slowest part of the site, ATM).

Just so we're all on the same page here

Okay now i know if NST doesnt load up not to worry. Thanks for the advanced warning.

 

[Terry60]

I shall be out at my sister's all day Sunday - so that's perfect timing.

 

[Ex_Brit]

What will I do with all that spare time...? Perhaps do some house cleaning that is severely overdue...perhaps....!

 

[Ex_Brit]

So....did it happen?

 

[mqudsi]

Yep - just finished.

Updated:
PHP, MySQL, TomCat, Jira, Crowd, Confluence, vBulletin, FishEye

 

[Ex_Brit]

Good for you....whatever that all means.....LOL

 

[mqudsi]

Well, some of the nifty new features here on the forums:
* Tags for posts. You can now tag posts with terms that come to mind.
* Improved user profiles. For instance, yours: The NeoSmart Forums - View Profile: Ex_Brit

Wow... profile pages with Myspace/Facebook like features!

 

[Ex_Brit]

Thanks CG. I usually delete visitior messages once they are read but to be able to delete them totally, rather than only a soft delete, would be nice.

 

[mqudsi]

Sure. I don't think there's any problem with giving the user total control over their pages.

What on Earth was going on up above with all those non-posts?

oops, ignore, they aren't there anymore...LOL
