Likes Thanks, etc should now be working for all.
If neither of these ar working yoi may need to reload or refresh page a couple of times.
Not sure but may take an hour or so to reset to gole and senior member promotions.
Cheers - Neil
PS please let me know if both fixes are working again.
Appears to be fine now Neil :2tsup:
Thanks, Euge
Steven's hoping to have another go at doing upgrade Sat arvo. Not a guarantee but he's hopeful.
Rsync and a master-slave database duplication. Super easy!
Run a parallel system on another port (81 or 8080) and test it almost-live, then flip it over.
Done it a thousand times on super-intensive production sites.
All fine for me now, Neil
Thank you Neil and Steve for all the behind the scenes hard work to make the thing run smoothly as possible....much appreciated.
:U:2tsup:
When it all goes well, the admin must feel happy, when it goes pear shaped blame someone else, hmmm where else is that happening at present?
Any ideas on when this upgrade is happening, starting to avoid opening images and only having a quick look at new posts, as it is a hit and miss affair.
Everything is working fine on my end. Posts and images open fine. Only real problem is the occasional double post trying to occurring.
yeah Lappa, agree, things have been stable here so @Acco I have no idea what you think is hit-and-miss?
No problem here either :2tsup:
Looks like it has come good for now, the other day I had to keep refreshing for pages to load and photos were taking minutes to open after clicking on thumbnail
What time of day and what day of the week?
All over the place, haven’t kept a record
School days 4:00 to 8:30, internet bogged down, weekend nights, social media=slow internet, just some of the things that can slow connections, also I have found on the forum that any threads that have a lot of hi res photos are painfully slow to load or time out if a lot of members are reading the same thread at the same time
Spoke to Steven yesterday and he said upgrade would be done this weekend sometime.
Don't know exactly when but this will be about the 8th try so..... Hopefully 9th time it will happens.
:fingerscrossed:
Tried to like post but ended up thanking for the picture :B
Looks like happening tomorrow (Sunday) starting from around 1:00pm.

Hi there
Will be doing some preparation over the next hour, you might notice some slowness and the odd timeout. The actual upgrade will start at about 6:30pm. I've got other commitments at 3 this afternoon so I need to split the job into two parts.
cheers
steve
Thanks for all the hard work you put in behind the scenes Steven :2tsup:Quote:

Just letting you know I've had to back out of this update and restore our backup. Will try again tomorrow. :2tsup:

Stick with it Steven.
It’s a little like speeding, I’d rather be 5 minutes late than dead on time.
Ok guys, The update has now taken place. We had to back out mid way again and start over, so it took a little longer. There are some template and plugin issues that wee'll work thought over the next day.
It'd be great if you could please post any issues you notice here.

None that I have noticed yet but a big thank you for all the unseen work you do :2tsup: x 10
Thanks mate, I'm pretty sure we've picked most of the issues up in a test upgrade and when the metalwork forum was upgraded a month or two back.Quote:

yeah agreed with the thanks - always appreciate the background effort that goes on managing an active place like this.
One change I noticed was that the "want pictures" and "thanks for pics" emoji's on bottom of posts have lost their text description. Not a biggie that's for sure...
I agree that the "want pictures" and "thanks for pics" have disappeared. Also, the "go to next unread post" button seems to have lost a bit of it's memory. When I click on the button, it takes me to two or three posts that I have already seen, instead of taking me to the first unread post.
Again, not a biggie, just bringing it to Steve's attention.
Alan...
I'd say you should ignore it's function on posts you may have read in the past 24 hours. There seems to have been posts lost so I suspect that at some stage forum access was open and then there was a data restore.... I know for me a number of posts I read appeared in the "New Posts" list. There were also ones I commented on that the posts disappeared, so I know that there was some data loss / forum access at some point during the upgrade process, that has caused some questions.Quote:

Its absolutely FANTASTIC.
btw, HTTPS posting still breaks forcing everything into a single line.
Being trying to upload some images via manage attachments and insert image and they’re not loading in a thread, had to use Tapatalk to upload them.
Started a new thread about 2000hrs on 17 June, 2019. Seams to have disappeared without a trace.
Thread was in Woodworking Forums - General.
Hi there, we haven't enabled https, thats the next step now the upgrade is done.
Hi there, you might need to repost that one unfortunately.Quote:

I had this problem a month ago, appears my email provider is blocking emails from this forum. I used an alternate email address and problem fixed. Maybe something to try as a test.Quote:
