    Over 6 hours. That's gotta be the longest an upgrade has taken.

    This upgrade is a work in progress, as there is still much to do. I have modified the code for my Trader, Calendar, Event Attendance, Image Browser & Censor mods to work with the new software, but have still to do the following:

    Quote Notification
    avatar/profile pic censoring
    Profile Rep Stats
    Fallen Bikers page
    JavaChat Integration
    Force Style for Selected Users or Groups
    PM Reply to all
    Flame Warrior

    Mods awaiting an update
    Advanced Forum Statistics
    Social Group Calendars
    v3 Arcade
    vBTubePRO
    KB Spy
    Wiki single login


    The old Dark Zone style is not compatible with the new version. As soon as I find a dark style I like, I will add it to the site.

    All your images from Blogs, Social Groups, Albums and Posts are now in a central pool which is controlled via an enhanced attachment uploading window. You may need to enable it your settings.

    Image censoring has also changed. Now all iffy images need to be in a folder called "pr0n". You can have as many pr0n folders as you like anywhere in the folder tree. Again you may need to enable enhanced attachment uploading in your settings. So yes, you will now need to go through all your images and drag & drop all the naughty ones into a pr0n folder.

    Until I've sorted the Wiki single login, you will need to login to the Wiki seperatly using your KB login name. New Wiki accounts have also been disabled. If you have content to add to the Wiki and don't have a login, let me know.

    It will be several weeks before I've finished coding and sorting the new look.

    Anything not working as it should, let me know here.

      My only bug so far is when using the dark universe I can't see any of the letters when typing into fields such as the forum search or thread search etc, the font is white or an extremely light grey on a white background, no good man.
      Thanks. I pass all these style issues onto the style designer to fix for the next release.

      I think there might be a problem with double postings - I've seen a few from other people, and I've had a couple of occasions where it tells me the minimum time between posts is 30s - I'm thinking I don't post that fast, then look and see my post is already there. I'm using the dark universe, and Firefox (actually Iceweasel, the Debian branded version) 3.0.6.

      It happens to me using the light or dark universe. I'm using Firefox at the moment. I'm guessing it happens to 1 in 5 posts I do. Not sure it is still doing it today though.

      I have not been moaning and groaning over the site difficulties over the site upgrade as I am well aware of how tougher project it is.

      FYI: Today is the first day that all the tables I use appear to be fully populated, so from my point of view: Mission Accomplished.

      Automatic speel check withinn Firefox does not workin the reply,quickreply,reply with quote options that open up part way through the thread, going advanced makes it work, as does the reply at the bottom of the thread.


      Also searching for attachments does not seem to work so well? Clicking on my name and selecting the "view images" option on a post no longer brings up old attachments.

      Firefox spell check works fine for me. Thou sometimes I have to right-click -> Check Spelling to turn it on.

      search in thread is helpful for such times, pretty sure search is back up now.

      But currently you have to give the rep by opening a new tab, otherwise it pops up where you cant find it.
