Hi all

CF should be upgrading to new forum software this weekend.

There are also plans to either:

Change hosting company

OR

Convert all web serving software from lighttpd to Apache 2.

I'm still trying to decide which way to go at this stage.

There may be some downtime when CF upgrades.

Please note that we will be moving from a Warning system to an Infraction system (which now comes built into the software) after our upgrade.

More info to come later...

From TFA:

The infraction system allows you and your moderators to flexibly reprimand problem users. Create as many types of infractions as you want to represent any type of rules violation on your board. Each infraction has a controllable weight (points) and an option to allow it to be applied only as a warning, which alerts the user to their violation but doesn’t give them any points. Additionally, the points given to a user for a violation can be automatically removed after a specified amount of time via the Scheduled Tasks system.​

The infraction system comes standard now, which means I don't have to use the unwieldy custom code we have been using... mind you, let's try it out first though!

There are other features which I have custom coded that also come standard which I'll need to test. As you can image, CF is running on HIGHLY MODIFIED code, so I'll need to redo all the code changes. That may take a while.

But hey, it's all for the glory of God. Plus it's fun!

How long do you think the system will be down for? Any estimates? Love, Tapero

Don't ask for estimates! I know Erwin tries his hardest to get things done as fast as possible but I've never seen an estimate of down time ever accurate or even close Let's just say CF will be down for the whole weekend and then be pleasantly surprised if it's back up sooner
