Forum Upgrade on 2019-09-09

Post by jnewman »

I will be upgrading our forums starting around 09:00 CDT on September 9th 2019. During this time the forums will be disabled. The upgrade will take at least an hour, probably more, so I can properly backup the database and files.

This upgrade will take us to the latest version of phpBB 3.2.7. Since this is quite a big version jump the changes will be too long to list here. But, if you are curious, you can see the changelog on the phpBB website. Our current version is 3.0.10.

We will also be getting a new theme for the forum. I've worked on making the newer WineHQ layout integrate with the phpBB theme. One new thing is that the forum will work better on mobile due to responsive design.
