We have upgraded our forum software and moved to a new server - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TJ · 06-15-2018, 09:06 AM

Sorry for the downtime. It took a little longer than expected.

We have been moved to a brand new, more powerful server. This should make things run faster.

We have upgraded our forum software from vBulletin 3.5 to 3.8.11 . This will allow us to add some new features (such as a mobile theme) going forward. GIF and PNG images should now work in the photo galleries.

We will soon be switching everything over from http to https to make things even more secure.

There is a lot new in this version, so there will probably be some bugs. We haven't gone through all of the options yet, so there will probably still be some changes. If you come across any major problems or if something doesn't look like it did before, please let us know. It's still a work in progress.

You might need to clear your cache and temporary files in your browser to get the old graphics to work.

You might want to visit the User CP to change any of your settings:

Can there please be a strikeout feature?

Thank you. I would really like it implemented one of these days.

This site isn’t loading right away for me either. It’s not very quick at all and takes at least more than a few seconds to load.

TJ · 06-15-2018, 10:38 AM

The site is not as responding as fast it should be as far as posting, editing, searching, etc. We are working on optimizing it.

When is a mobile version coming out? Do you know?

TJ · 06-15-2018, 10:50 AM

I don't know when we will have a mobile theme. This is all new. There's a lot to do. We are working on making it faster and any other major issues first. It's going to take some time to get everything running smoothly.

Just type in [strike] and [/strike] with your word in between.

~~never mind~~

The first thing I'm noticing is it's taking in excess of 10 seconds to load a page. As opposed to ~1 second a few days ago. But I trust it's only temporary.

I like some of the new features to be honest.

TJ · 06-15-2018, 12:28 PM

The site is being worked on and optimized. It should be as fast or faster than it was a few days ago. It's probably going to go offline several times while they work on it. Please be patient.

Yes, I noticed this morning it was running very slow . I was so happy to have S.O. back and I figured just that , it will take some time to get it completely perfected, so I just waited it out !

Just came back on a little while ago and now it is running like a charm. Very fast!

We're cooking now!!
