Didja ever wonder about the high-tech discussions that Bob Clancy sends my way about thewebsiteand Forum maintenance? Here's one he sent yesterday about the upcoming re-do:
"Yo,
Spent all frikkin day yesterday getting *my* shit in order, upgraded the MRider forum (exactly the same as LR except teeny) and figured out what works. My original plan, I found out, wouldn't work. (Do a new install of the latest version, then import the old database..... have to do an in-place 'upgrade' instead, as it modifies the database too). VERY thankful for that MRider forum. Also upgraded my gallery (Coppermine, same as LR). Now I'm all off the "extended PHP support".
Have a good plan, ready for Monday. Going to duplicate the forum then upgrade that version, leaving the original intact. If it's all well and good, then blow away the original, after all the boys and girls check it over.
Onward,
B
