    Default Upgrade to vBulletin 4.0

    Hey guys, I'm currently working on getting us all upgraded to vBulletin 4.0. I ran into some snags along the way, and probably won’t get to finish everything tonight. I'll have as much as possible done before bed, but some things might wait till tomorrow (as far as layout / color scheme go).

    Thanks for being patient!

    Well I got a lot more done then I thought I would when I posted this thread. I fixed broken links, fixed several issues with the server, upgraded php and mysql on the server, and got things stable.

    Besides the hideous layout/color scheme the site should be mostly functional. I'll start working on the interface tomorrow morning. Please comment here if you notice anything broken.

    Thanks guys!

    First thing I thought when I logged on "Holy shit wtf happened to my smokers" good gosh I am glad to see it won't be permanent. Thanks Hex.

    It looks like the "find all posts" button on a members profile only returns posts made since the upgrade.

    Lookin good so far, I kinda like the color scheme...though the green background of the site dosen't mesh well.

    Thanks for doing the upgrade, I know it isn't a small matter.


    Yay! Cigars!

    It looks like the "Latest Reputation Received" images are not being found.

    Thanks for taking the time to update the site - I know how much of a pain that can be.

    It's on the member's profile page, on the left.

    It doesn't seem that search is working either. I think its only searching stuff since the upgrade similar to Jamie's post.

    Thanks,

    Thanks for the bug reports! Keep them coming. I'll be fixing some of these today. I'm going to be working on the layout/color scheme/icons and what not for the next couple of days. I'm trying to get the colors back to where they were (for the most part).

    Rebuilding the Search Index. This should clear up the problems with Searching. The site may be a little slow while the index rebuilds.

    "Find all posts by user" and "Search" has been fixed. All I had to do was rebuild the Search Index.

    Here is a list of my current todo list:
    1. "Latest Reputation Received" images broken
    2. Chat broken
    3. Color changes
    4. Icon changes
    Please let me know if you find anymore issues!

    Hex,

    Now when I do a search, everything comes up.

    For example, I did a general forum search for "Flor de Baloney" and everything came up

    I went into the review forum, and did the "search this forum" and the same thing happened.

    Thanks,
    Will

    I sent a personal message to someone and that seemed to work fine. However I went and clicked the button that said messages sent and I got how full my box was, but there were no messages listed.

    Well, its coming along I think.

    I'm happy with the color scheme now.. I got to get some new icons for the forums and threads. I think I'll probably go back to what we had, I liked those.

    What do you guys think of the basic color scheme now?
