    After close to 30 hours, the MMB upgrade is just about complete. The only thing I did not upgrade was the timeslip database as I did not like the way it was to be done and I did not want to risk corrupting the database. Later on this week I will do a test conversion on copy of the database.

    The upgrade should have taken several hours, but I decided to re-index the database, which took over 24 hours to complete! In retrospect, I should not have done this as the database was fine and it was an optional thing to do.

    Here are some of the new features of the forum:
    • Auto-completion via AJAX: In many areas of the forum where you need to type in the user name, a list of possible user names will appear, after typing a few characters .

    Good job Stefan! :thumbs2:

    You really have added some really useful options.

    I know everyone will realize the 30 hours downtime were worth the wait!!
