Release announcement--New Forum Version 3.1.4 (WE ARE NOW UPDATED)

[pete]

We are on 3.1.3 currently Oh goodie, something to tinker with this evening Most users will not notice anything other than a brief outage (I hope it's brief LOL).

The upside is that some of the new extension add-ons being released only work with 3.1.4 and higher, so we'll be able to take advantage of them if desired

<edited out all of the tedious upgrade instructions that are only needed by afmin>

I don't have the least idea of what you are talking about. Looks like if I don't do whatever it is I will be gone from the board. Perhaps that's best.

Pete will do all of that. You shouldn't have to do a thing and probably won't notice difference.

Actually I would bet that most of the posters on this board understood at least portions of what you were talking about. I'm just happy it is your realm and not something I have to know. I truly appreciate all the time and effort you put into keeping this board in good operation.

I guess the main message is if you see the forum down for a few minutes later tonight eastern time, say between 11-12 EDT, it's just me. I screwed it up last time because I was trying to watch the Super Bowl and got distracted ;-). Should only take a few minutes this time :P2

Might have to do this upgrade tomorrow. very sleepy
