Notice of System Work Sunday - November 24th

[Scott Greczkowski]

Heads up...

I am planning on doing our system update / upgrade to Xenforo 2.3 on Sunday November 24th.

Unlike last time I do expect this to go a lot smoother then last time. And I will remember to do a snapshot before I do the update as well.

The work is expected to start around 10am ET. And I will work to get us back online ASAP.

Just seeing if you are paying attention. (Or does it mean November 11th... next year?)

I have started doing "pre work" before the update, and am updating the add ins that can be updated that work on both Xenforo 2.2 and 2.3.

But as I have seen in one instance, some add ins that are only supposed to work in 2.3 are only supposed to install in 2.3, but it installed in 2.2 anyways which caused errors, so I had to disable that add in temporarily. (All other add ons so far won't let me install them when I try saying they require 2.3)

Ok updated about 50 add ons. Still have about 10 more to do but I can't update them until we move to to 2.3. So that will happen on Sunday.

If you notice anything strange let me know.

Just a reminder, I will be upgrading us to the latest version of Xenforo tomorrow starting at 10 AM ET. The site will be down while I work.

If I run into any issues I will post updates (if warrented) to our X/Twitter feed. x.com

I know we all hate change, but to keep the system and your data secure we must update to protect these things.

As normal during most upgrades after we are done there will be some minor issues, but as usual we will work through them.

Good Luck!
