At around 4 pm today, someone (probably our hoster) uploaded phpBB 2.0.16 over the top of the forum. This stopped the forum.

At around 6.30 pm, I tried fixing it, but someone "helpfully" ran the installer which blew away our database. So up until 6.30 pm, we had lost no posts beyond two hours without any access. So we're back to Sunday morning, when I last took a backup.

As I don't have a lot of the files of the original site, we're moving to the new version which is under development. If you notice anything odd, please post it here, and I'll fix it.

For our sponsors, the ads will return later tonight. I'm off to dinner.

I have uploaded the Pro Green and Pro Red themes. For some fun, I've made these themes the default in two forums so you can check them out.

New Members Forum - Green
Pic of the Week - Red

You can choose for yourself in the User Control Panel - top right.

Andrew, you've done a fantastic job. I had wondered what was going on with the forum, but figured something had gone wrong at the server end.

You deserve a :beer from every member, I reckon!!!! 😀

I am only using 2.0.8 and have been told by my hoster that I have to upgrade to 2.0.15... even though current version is 16???

I've been to phpBB site and the upgrade packages seem to go ponly one level, ie 2.0.8 to 2.0.9.. 9 to 10, 11 to 12 etc etc etc etc..... Does that mean I have to go through every update until I get to current version or will using the lastest update fix the lot?

Hmm I should have downloaded first. 2.0.8 to 1.0.16 is in the zip file. Now just have to figure out what to do with it.

Soon, you'll be able to upgrade from phpBB to this forum software. 🙂 It's better.
