Forum Offline - Move To New Server

Post by Alun »

Morning all, just to let you know that we are moving the ABR Website and Forum to new servers on Tuesday (15/6/2021) evening and if all goes well downtime should be kept to just a few hours.

Considering all the grief the last swap caused.
Is this really the time to change. With the ABR rally in a week or so and covid changesn
You really need to be able to communicate with as many people as possible as quickly as possible.

I was hoping the move would have fixed the issue with my private messages showing as "1" unread despite there definately being nothing in there. Don't suppose you could look at it could you? I've emailed a few times over the past year, it's just annoying. I pay good money for this forum ... oh, hang on ;)

It's not a fault, it's a way to let you know the other person has not read the message you sent.

Are you sure? Normally mails sit in my "Outbox" until they've been read.

My Outbox is empty as you can see.

Howdy, we could do a forum update to the latest version soon. But right now I need it to settle down so I can monitor things. it does seem quicker and in doing this work I have noticed some mobile responsivity issues which I will have a go at shortly. LMK if anyone spots anything else.
