Site Updates - Dodge Caliber SRT-4 Forums

Richard · 10-05-2006, 02:20 PM

CaliberSRT4.net will be offline tonight from 10pm PST till 2am PST. During this time I will be updating the site. I plan on doing the following:

Updating vBulletin forum software to version 3.6.2
Updating CMPS vBAdvanced (homepage portal) to version 2.2
Updating vBSEO (Search Engine Friendly URLS) to version 3.0.0 RC3
Updating layout to a red and silver scheme complete with new logo.
Uninstalling vBGarage.

There maybe some compatability issues with other small plugins that I've installed after updating everything. The site will function, but some features may not work correctly. Once everything is working fine I'll install vBGarage's replacement:

Photopost Pro

Please report all bugs.

Sweet, looking forward to the red/silver scheme and the logo...With you as the admin, I know its gonna be hot.

Whew! This is taking longer than I expected. Worked 5 hours straight. So far I managed to install the new vBulletin forum software, vBadvanced homepage, and removed vBGarage.

Theres still a lot to go, theres going to be broken links and such. I had to revert 11 templates that are used for the forum to be compatible with the new forum version. Some elements of the forum may not function correctly.

I'm going to do a little bit more, then go to sleep. In the morning I'll continue with the new scheme and install the remaining plugins.

For now at least the forum is back online and functional, which I was most concerned about. Everything else I can install while the forum is online.

Theres a lot of tweeks I'll have to do to the current scheme. It's more of a red and silver color. Once it's done I'll decide if I want to keep it or change to something else.

I like having the Newest Post button, it now requires us to view the index and search for the newest.

What does everyone think?

I finally pretty much finished the overall update. I'm just waiting for my Photopost Pro order to be finalized so I can download and install it.

Theres a few other things I plan on doing, but they are minor.
