phpBB forum upgrade
Just to give you some heads-up, I will try to do an upgrade of the forum tomorrow, so if you are not able to connect, you will know why.
Since I will not be able to give updates on the forum if things go bad, I will post the updates on my Twitter account instead.

Hoping all will be fine, for your spare time and our enjoyment
Re: phpBB forum upgrade
Going to take my breakfast, and then I'll start the upgrade procedure.
Until you see a post saying that it is safe to post, please don't, because if something does not work I will have to rollback from a backup so whatever you posted will be gone.

Re: phpBB forum upgrade
Ok, I'm going to start, if you want to follow the updates it's going to be on
Re: phpBB forum upgrade
Should be safe to use the forum again.
I'm currently looking at the best mod to do the "export full thread" request, if any of you can think of some extension that would be interesting to have (interesting as "would benefit most people", not custom stuff for one person please), feel free to tell.
Also please signal anything weird you encounter.

Re: phpBB forum upgrade
The extensions to generate full thread prints has been installed, and I installed a better database backup system as well.
Hopefully everything is working fine

Re: phpBB forum upgrade
Thanks!
Made a very quick test with the "print all", seems to work fine

Re: phpBB forum upgrade
Cool, I wonder how bad that would result on things like the epic 40 page long threads
Re: phpBB forum upgrade
Here's already a test on a 10-page long one
Re: phpBB forum upgrade
Cool, so with all the images, color, font size, code comments, etc...
Nice
Another good motivation to keep threads clean and in order.
