The moment most of you have been asking for for years has arrived. We've finally managed to upgrade the forum software!
Bear with us for the next week or so, there are bound to be teething problems. I know that at the time of writing this it is not sending email notifications for example, on new posts or new PMs.
The selling controls and feedback are gone. These may be reintroduced at a later date but don't hold your breath.
The garage is gone. It's unlikely this will return but links to old garages still work.
The knowledge base was migrated but as it's a new KB plugin it doesn't quite look the same. The process actually also unearthed some old KB articles that the old forum wasn't displaying.
I have no idea what effect this is going to have on existing Premium Membership subscriptions. New ones work, so it may be that you have to cancel your old subscription in Paypal and take out a new one. We'll see what happens when a few people's renewal dates come up.
The old forums are not currently accessible. They will eventually be put back in their old location "/forums" but all locked and read-only so that they are a point-in-time. It means old links to old content will still work, and garage and feedback data will still be there, albeit in an uneditable form.

Done some more tweaking to the email sending today - apologies if some notifications have ended up in your spam folder.

Re: New! 2021 Forum upgrade
Old forums are now back (but locked and all content read-only) at forums/
I wanted to do this so that old links still work and any content indexed by search engines and so on still gets people the information they are looking for instead of just an error message. The biggest thing this site has going for it is the amount of historical information and data on it.

More than happy to accept payment in beer, in the event we can ever get a Japanese show to let in a British car!

Looks like you knocked the "oute]" bit off the end. "[/qu" is still there. It should say [/quote] after the text you are quoting.

A brief 5 minutes of downtime this morning as I resized the server back to being small again - I had increased the spec for the duration of the upgrade.

Well done
Re: New! 2021 Forum upgrade
Nice one, feels much fresher and will hopefully fix some of the old bugs now.
