    Exclamation Preparing for forum upgrade soon

    I am getting ready to upgrade from VB 3 to VB 4 here on BLiNC.

    I am working on getting database and file back up, then I will be performing the upgrade.

    I REALLY need a few volunteers that are familiar with the BLiNC navigation that can do an extensive, and fast smoke test once the upgrade is complete. I plan to do this on a weekend, either really early, or really late to avoid too much issues with traffic. But the smoke test vital this time.

    Because there are HUGE tasks to be done:

    Step 1:
    • Upgrade to VB 4
    • Remove the Classified


    Step 2
    • Upgrade VBTube Video Page
    • Upgrade Image Gallery
    • Add new Classified Application


    Please PM me if you are interested in helping

    I hope to get this upgrade done in the next 1-2 weeks.

    I would take it seriously; but it's serious and ridiculous at the same time. -sl

    Re: Preparing for forum upgrade soon

    What I need is not really hard, just tedious:

    • Viewing MANY pages and inspecting for any ERRORS
    • Posting, viewing Forum
    • Posting, viewing Wiki
    • Posting, viewing BLog
    • Posting, viewing images
    • Posting, viewing videos


    All of which we need to look for errors and things that might be broken due to the upgrade.

    I am looking to do the upgrade this weekend. Maybe early Saturday (EDT)?

    Still looking for 2-3 more people that can help for an hour or so.
