The forum upgrade should be happening this weekend. The forum will be closed while this is done. I expect to close it Saturday morning, most likely around 9 am. If all goes to plan it will be open again sometime before 6 pm Sunday. My apologies for the interruption but we should have an improved forum after this.

If it will be advancing to a much newer version of SMF it possible the forum will end up looking extremely different to what folks are used to and may take some time re learning your way around.....but it'll be much much better.

Yes this is a change of host so going to new servers etc. We will back up current forum and hope to restore the whole thing in the new setup. Hope to go the current version of SMF too. Fingers crossed it all goes to plan...
