Site Update - January 2018
Posted: Sun Jan 07, 2018 3:35 pm
Hello Coders,
It's been a long time coming but the latest (and possibly greatest) update to the site is almost ready to be implemented.
I am going to schedule it for next weekend at the latest - between 12th and 14th January
It will be a massive update and I know I've given warnings in the past about the site being offline for some time during updates but this time the site definitely will be offline for an undetermined length of time. The downtime will be due to us having to completely overhaul the database and file system of the site so we literally have no idea how long it will take of how long the site will be offline. It could take an hour or if some unforeseen problems arise it could take all weekend.
As mentioned in a previous post the site layout will remain primarily the same, we'll still have the sidebar etc but it will be noticeably different and better suited for use on PC's, Tablets and Mobile devices.
I really can't go in to too much detail at this stage in regards to features but I hope you all like the new design.
As I said this is the biggest site update we've ever undertaken so expect down time next weekend.
Another thing to take special note of is that we may lose some data so I may need to disable new registrations/posts on the site over the next few days. I can only apologise for any lost data after the update but this is unavoidable.
Mark it in your calendars and we'll see you all soon.
Update between 12th and 14th January
Thank you all for understanding.
