There will be a short outage at around 10 pm tonight whilst we upgrade XMB to 1.8 SP1 to fix some security issues.
There should be no outwardly visible changes, and I would imagine the site being back up by about 10.20 or 10.30 pm.
- 10.15 pm Update - it's all done. Please test as much as you can and report back anything unusual here, please.

I'm assuming that this won't effect the chat room?
vanderaj ·
Yep that's correct. Forum banners, business directory, and the front page will continue to work.
It will not affect anything besides these pages. And you'll be view these pages whilst I'm doing it... There's a small window when the SQL database is updated may cause a post to be lost. So if everyone can just avoid *posting* between 10.00 and 10.30, that'll be great.

Don't worry, I have a complete backup of the forum before any changes started. So we should be right to go.

vanderaj ·
Yeah, I left it out as it's not the most pleasant thing to look at. 🙂
We should have the 50 kb limit for attachments still in place though.

I like how its more compact..
Saves scrolling time..TA.
but does smack of following shop talk.Tell me its not so...😀
Hate to think we would follow the US.
vanderaj ·
Nah, I don't actually visit shoptalk. I think I've been there twice maybe?
Mactastic is an inbuilt theme for XMB. If they use XMB with Mactastic, then sure we'll look the same as I don't spend heaps of time modifying the site.

I love it... it's great!!!! Keep up the good work.... God bless this Forum..... (and all air cooled Volkswagens)
(sorry Audi & liquid cooled VW owners) .. Just because We choose to own & drive a Vehicle that was designed many years ago, doesn't mean We can't have a 'modern' looking Forum .... We ARE Modern Volkswagen People... (otherwise We wouldn't be typing an a computer keyboard) probably a typewriter and snail mail.... Yikes.. what a horrible thought.... 😀😀:thumb:o:thumb:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce
