Site Problems... Upgrade poll

[Admin]

Hi Everyone. We have been having some bugs with the site. I would like to upgrade it to version 4 of vbulletin.


I want your feedback thou because it will change the look of the site.

This is a site I built using the new software and it is what the FZ1 site would basically look like and function like.

Here is the link Yamaha MT-07 Forum

I'm happy with any upgrades you make. Is the new software compatible with Tapatalk?

 

[Admin]

Yes Tapatalk would get upgraded also

Your the driver, I am happy to go along with what you decide is the best way foward

 

[DenArnold]

in favour of upgrading if it means an improvement in how the site works and can be managed/used. But personally do not like the layout of the MT07-forum...maybe a matter of getting used to?

Definitely does not feel like home but it will in no time. I am more worried about it not working than having it look a bit different. I say "go for it."

 

[JMundy]

Go for it, as long as fixing these bugs don't cause other issues. That's my biggest fear with being a sysadmin

Normally I would go along with the majority....BUT if it changes the gallery and running MBOM at all...I'll go with no :scared:
(but I won't leave if you do upgrade)

Ive checked the link on three different android devices and nothing loads.

Im very rarely in front of lap/desktop and if tapatalk wont work, im browsing mobile. Just mentioning because that is an issue for me.

Checked with regular stock browser, firefox and chrome. Also requested it to download desktop site in case it was limiting by mobile browsing.

Go for it, the new vbulletin also comes with better security patches.
We'll all get used to it soon enough.

Change is good.... We'll figure it out. It will keep all the historical threads, photo uploads, etc, right? oke:

Yeah but change keeps you and I employed!

Looks like the current version of vbulletin is 5.0.5, and there is a clear upgrade path from 3.8. Any thought to skipping the version 4 release and going straight to the 5.x stream?

The new look is a little different and will take some time to get used to but I'm all for it. :Rockon:

Its your place. I'm grateful you have it here for us.

I am still working on the MT-07 Forum so all the functionality is not there.. We don't have to use that theme for this site. Google Vbulletin 4 styles and pretty much any can be incorporated. We can even have muti site themes.

The upgrade is $179 USD so not too bad either.

Here is an example of the Vbulletin 4 default theme
