As usual, life's been busy as usual for me since my move down to Texas. New job, new house blah blah excuses whatever who cares. Anyway, I'm trying to set aside a couple days to just fix everything that's broken on this site. I'm shooting for this weekend, but please don't shoot me if I can't.
I am aware of the attachments issue. Is there anything else? Anything you guys want added? Give me a nice laundry list of stuff to do and order it by priority. Things to note: - I don't have access to the old stuff, Mike does. This means that any missing files are out of my reach. - The site might be down at times if I need to replace something. Expect outages. - I would love to upgrade to the latest IPB, but I need to find the files and I dont have access to our customer portal. I'll do my best on that end. - Texas is much hotter than back home. |

Thanks for burning the midnight oil to upgrade the BBS. Will you also be installing a newer version of Mediawiki?
It may be too late for this, but just before you pulled everything down I realized there's one new wiki feature that would be useful: page deletion. On Wikipedia, the function isn't available to general users, but there is at least the "for deletion" templates and a system in place where after time for discussion an administrator can completely remove unnecessary pages from the database. It would be nice to have a system for doing that on OESF wiki since the spambots have created so many bogus pages for their link garbage. |

Just sorting some PHP5 issues out. |
