I updated the forum to the latest version of phpBB this afternoon.

Some of you may have received an error message for a whould 5 minute  
period. Sorry for any inconvenience.

If you find any problems with the new version please send me a PM and  
I will try to resolve any issues with the site.

- Thanks, Andrew

Hey man, No problems here.

I am just curious, what exactly is phpBB?

What kind of upgrades were done for this version, is it more secure?

I am thinking it is probably something that us ordinary members wouldn’t see, I was just interested.

Thanks for keeping up the excellent work on the boards man.

Yeah, the album link seems to have disappeared from the site.

All I did was follow the instructions for the update using the “upload changed files” method via FTP.

We’re trying to figure it out now, stay tuned… dun, dun dun…

I’m trying to get Coppermine Gallery working. If it’s easy to populate the Coppermine DB with registered users from phpBB, then we can do that.

Or I’ll just look into why the album isn’t working.

I am sure there is some script to integrate copermine and phpbb. That  
would be ideal…
