There's a new version of PhpBB (the server software we use) I need to upgrade the server hamster to which means I need to do some software in the background.

Inevitably, I do things I shouldn't underneath the Ausmini bonnet, so I'll apologise for the inconvenience in advance!

Theres a big upgrade from PhpBB 3.0.12 to 3.1.0 and beyond. We're at 3.0.12.

It renders themes, mods and individual forum changes null and void. I am unsure why they feel they need to do this to the forums using PhpBB but I suspect there may be a long term approach under the guise of security.

I have to do this one slowly and work it out. I might need to recreate the forum theme (background with images etc)

Mick, do you mind having the option of a really really basic theme?
Something without the Minis on the banner?

Makes browsing Ausmini at work somewhat difficult!

:lol:

I notice the video that was on the homepage, when you clicked 'server' is no longer there.
Any chance of getting it back? Loved clicking on it whenever I needed a good laugh.
