Forum changes
Posted: Wed Jun 15, 2011 6:40 pm
As I promised, we switched to a better faster forum software.
I've managed to switch all the users except I think one last user.
Thing to remember:
If you using these new forums for the first time, you will have to reset your password!!!!! You can do that by clicking on forgot my password under login window. Once you do that it will send you info to the email you registered with. You have to do that, no exception, you old password will not work!!!
After you done with password reset, please click you your user control panel to update your info, like avatar, signature, date of birth... whatever you want.
After I'm done with changing the front end, I will be adding more features to these forums, like picture galleries and more community oriented features. It will work a lot better then wordpress based community.
Also, I copied some posts from the old forums into the new ones, so we will not have empty forums. So at this point I would appreciate users posting as much as possible so we can get back to a nice full forum....We were also having problems with registration dates and I've been fixing those one by one. I will continue doing so little by little, especially for people that have been with us from the start
I apologize for extra steps members have to take for this transfer and lost posts but we had to do it before we got too big and got stuck on the old forum software that just wasn't working out.
Any questions, please post here and I will be happy to respond..
