Next week, probably Tuesday afternoon (10/25) we will be upgrading the forum software to SMF version 2. If all goes as it should there should only be a minor interruption in forum availability. The upgraded version will look a little different but other than that that's all the members should notice.
If you notice something weird, funny or not so funny or simply have a comment or question please add your observations here so the administration team can give the matter a look..
Sorry, we were out there for awhile. It is likely we will have another outage today.

We had some issues with this today. Everything should be back to the way it was although there may have been a few personal settings, such as whether or not the most recent posts in a topic appear at the top or bottom of the list. I had a report from one member who encountered that. I fixed it for him. Any user can select personal touches like that under their profile. Look & Layout Preferences is the place. There are a few selections a user can make.
We will be getting this upgrade done, one way or another sometimes soon.
Thanks for bearing with us.
OK - this is the new version 2.0!
Let us know of problems. We will be exploring some of the new features
We had an issue there for a bit. Don't know who noticed some crap that was happening. Woooo Hoooo!!!!! I made it work.
For the time being it would be nice if no one made changes to their personal preferences. Maybe an hour or so.
Looks great guys!
Seems to be working good so far. Will just take some gettin use to appearence wise.
VERY NICE
Thank you

And the boards show the (http://countryplans.com/smf/Themes/default/images/english/new.gif) after the banem of any topic with a new post...
Do you see those?
That is exactly what I am talking about. It was there last night when I left the hotel in LaGrande, Oregon and went to my train. This morning it is not there, nor the ID! ???
Let me log out and log back in. If I can find a log out button
I found it. The header header to be expanded under simple machines forum.
Dang it Rick. I never knew that was there!! Nearly invisible. Too bad it does away with the "new posts" link.....
