Forum Upgrade was created by JT
I'm upgrading the forum to a new OS, Joomla and Kunena. There will be a period when the forum will be shut down while I capture the last messages. If you create an account between now and then it might get lost. I'll announce when the change will happen but now it's time for a beer... been working on this for two days.

All the upgrades went fine so on October 30 around 5am Central Time I will shut down the forum and attempt to get any new posts between October 28 at around 2pm Central Time and the shut down. If it can't be done in a reasonable time frame they will be lost. So if you have an important post make a local copy of the text.

It took several tries to migrate from where we were to where we are now but AFAIK everything works except the user avatars.

It needs some tweaking but it's beer thirty here in Swamp East Missouri.

Been seeing this for the last two days, notice the guest number, lowest i have seen it was a smidge over 4000, and i am sure those are no humans, well not all of them, some are for sure.
Checked the attachments and everything seems fine, statistics seem fine except profile views that are very low, the main menu renders vertically for me, i can reply quote and edit posts, will add avatar and edit profile in a bit.
JT, thank you, you have been magnificent.

Yeah the menus need work, I was just glad after 4 attempts to get it up and running on a modern OS and Joomla and Kunena. It took a few tries to figure out the steps for each thing due to restrictions with PHP and versions of Joomla and Kunena. And WOW I just noticed the spell checker works now!
