Yesterday I “upgraded” the forums from phpBB 3.0.0 to 3.0.2. It was a bit of a debacle, probably mostly my fault, and it was down for a lot of the day. It’s back up and running now though! Apparently it fixed an issue one user was having with IE 7, so that’s cool. I did lose the some of the “search” data from the database, so searches in the forums might be kinda limited for a while (if anyone knows how to make phpBB force-rebuild those tables let me know). The big problem I was hoping to solve is that email notifications to topics you have subscribed to weren’t working… and still aren’t. Bummer. Oh well, all in good time.<\/p>\n
If you have never checked out the forums<\/a>, you should! We’ve got a nice little community going in there (thanks guys!). Posting in there for troubleshooting help will get you better and quicker help than emailing me will. I’ve been kinda buried in troubleshooting emails lately so I apologize if I need to pass some of you off to the forums instead. But really, it’s better for everyone that way.<\/p>\n Here are some interesting threads lately:<\/p>\n Yesterday I “upgraded” the forums from phpBB 3.0.0 to 3.0.2.
