Yeah there's bugs there for sure.

And I'm happy.

[Jaguar]

And my accounts are linked and that works.

[Jaguar]

Any news on when V5 Beta is here ?

[moon/Laura]

not yet, though it's not for lack of asking over on support, lol

It would make a fabulous Christmas present for all of us.

If I wanted to give someone some links to stuff they could read on V5, what links should I give them ?

I've already given them the current how to thread that's available and I also gave them the old how to first V5 Beta thread link.

Scheduled Maintenance
On Tue, Dec 18th, between 1am and 5am PST (9am - 1pm GMT) we will be performing scheduled maintenance on forum servers. Forums may be down for up to 10 minutes during this time.

Screw "maintenance", update it.

[Jaguar]

Bill venting

[Jaguar]

Bills we can be the terror twins and throw tantrums every day on this thread till we get what we want. Moon can tell proboards that her members are rioting. This should go over well I would think. You in ?

[billisonboard]

in

[Jaguar]

We want V5, We want V5, We want V5, We want V5, We want V5, We want V5, We want V5.....oh shiney.

[Jaguar]

So it's looking like this will happen at the end of the month Moon was saying on Post #4 on this thread

[billisonboard]

If then, maybe it better wait until a couple of days into the new year so the ProBoard tech people are over their hangovers.

Cause they need to get over one headache BEFORE another even bigger headache is on them.

I was thinking that we should wish it to happen at the point in time when it is best for moon and virgil. You know that they are going to be working hard to quickly make v5 as cool as they have made this version. Don't know how much code they can pre-write. Don't want the change to interfere with their holiday celebrations.

Yeah I was thinking January was better cause it's just a long cranky month and well we will all be cranky listening to the whiners.

<< puts wine on the shopping list for January >>

Many codes will not be done until after the conversion. I have already converted most of the skins from here into themes, which will just need to be imported.

Our Quick Bar widget, which tracks your recent topics doesn't have to be done right away, because there is the "participated" button at the top of the board that will serve the same purpose for now.

I believe virgil does plan to convert the smiley thing into a plugin, but not sure when. Our shiny names will also be back burnered for a while. That's cosmetic, so not a priority.

I did see on support that Patrick Clinger (the owner of PB) is planning an announcement for this week regarding when we can upgrade.

[Jaguar]

OH AN ANNOUNCEMENT from Patrick Clinger.

Bills that's just a wee little thing. Think of the possibilities of what V5 can bring to your posting enjoyment.

I just tried to log on to icey's board, so I can maybe, perhaps, somehow, get the two boards linked, and it says her board is down for emergency maintenance.

Yeah the Hard Drive needs to be replaced for this affected server.

[Sharon]

I can logon to moons beta board, it is the linking up of the two boards that confounds me.
