next upgrade cycle about to begin!
well, it is time to begin the next upgrade cycle.
there may be some minor down time in the next week or so when i put the new server hardware in the rack beside this existing server,
hopefully their will be no major hiccups.
once the hardware is bedded in i will begin to port the existing server over to the new hardware ...
aiming for minimal down time, but you just never know :p

IT MAY HAPPEN AS EARLY AS TONITE :p
Mobile and Tablet Software
there are two main contenders
Tapatalk and Forum Runner
until now i have supported both most of the time
i know i am going to upset some but i have decided to only support forum runner in the future UNLESS something changes with tapatalk.
just about every time i have to upgrade it on the server i have issues and it also seems to load the server a little more than Forum Runner
Forum Runner have a free version and a Pay version for Iphone IPad and Android
Forum Runner - vBulletin / XenForo / myBB / phpBB Forum iPhone App
I have just had to buy Forum Runner myself as i was using Tapatalk till now.
My apologies if you are affected ......
system tweaks
been playing and slowly tweaking settings to the point i now have the gallery working (for me anyway) apart from mouse overs on images.
markets now seem stable
PM me with any error messages you may see.
lot of server tweaks to get some of the transactional delays out of the way.
optimization of server load and memory usage.
trying to get garage software working but for the life of me i can not get pics to work with it.
the future
at the moment i have no intention of upgrading to the later version of vbulletin although i have owned the licenses since pre release as i dont think it is stable enough nor as complete a package as this version.
as i have said earlier, if you see a problem PM me the error message you recieve and i will see what i can find.
GOLD Subscriber ONLY feature to help those on low bandwidth connections
there is now a style called "LW" available in the style selector on the bottom left of most aulro pages.
This feature is only available if you are a GOLD subscriber.
this should help those on high latency connections.
it only works in the main forum areas, if you wish to go into the markets etc you will need to go to the default style to see them properly. You will see what i mean when you use it.
