Site Update - vBulletin 3.7.0

[Paddy GT]

Well lads and ladettes,

Just updated the site to the latest version of vBulletin, which is going to bring us lots of new features (as soon as I get them all working!) I'm expecting things to be a bit bug'y for a while so please bear with us for the next few days and any bugs that you spot please let me know !

Cheers,

Paddy.

Had to update our skin to accomodate vb3.7 - so you might notice a few differences until I get things back to how they were .

[nikki]

the sight looks so long :( an wers the 86irl logo gone :pmsl:

[Betsie]

[Sarsfield]

will the avatars be staying on the top ???

ya,what betsie said,will the avatars be staying on top?? Must say i dont really like them there,sorry

[Paddy GT]

sorry lads - the avatars were just a temporary thing - fixed now - all should be back to normal shortly :)

[nikki]

yay :thumbsup:

[Paddy GT]

AE86irl site bebo is now working you can add friends and leave comments on peoples profiles !

[Paddy GT]

dont worry it aint bebo I was just taking the piss ... its just a nice little feature that comes as standard on vbulletin 3.7 whether we like it or not! and it will keep the bullshit off the forums.

so from now on if you want to have a personal conversation you can leave a comment on someones profile.

Bebo = Bebo
ae86irl = NOT Bebo

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

[nikki]

ae86irl = brilliant :nod:

[Paddy GT]

Bebo = Bebo
ae86irl = NOT Bebo

:thumbsup::thumbsup:


definately !! ... but I think anything that will keep some of the complete offtopic bullshit that is being posted on the forums will be a good thing !

[DaveJ]

Bebo = Bebo
ae86irl = NOT Bebo

:thumbsup::thumbsup:


i agree think its working grand the way it is

[smiley--cam]

Very gud idea, fair fucks paddy:thumbsup:

[Paddy GT]

Sorry just to clear things up I think some people are worried that we are trying to be like bebo or myspace or something - I was joking about that dont worry we are definately not going down that route!

All it is is a standard function in the latest version of vBulletin which makes profiles more interavtive so you can now leave comments on members profiles and view more information about them.

What this also means is that any bullshit or offtopic posts should be kept to profile messages , the jibber jabber thread or bebo itself ... so no more excuses.

[DaveJ]

ah right sounds good

[nikki]

well its deffo gonna stop people givin out to me anyways :nod:

[sc86]

site is way faster, must have vtec now yo

[Paddy GT]

nah we've switched to a hi-torque lol :nod:

[Betsie]

[Paddy GT]

its a bit of a pain in the arse since a lot of stuff that I had customised will have to be done again... but I will get that all done asap.

[Betsie]
