I upgraded the forum software to the latest phpBB release. This was a major upgrade so please notify me if you experience any problems.

I'm already aware of a few problems:
  • Multiple errors with anything related to the Gallery
  • Broken Calendar
  • Missing Quick Reply box
Please let me know if you find any other problems.

Okay. This upgrade really F.U.B.A.R.ed the forums. I am currently starting with a stock version of phpBB and will be adding mods back in one by one. Kind of a tedious and time-consuming process, but really the right way to do it...

Will have updates as I go along. Thanks for your patience!

11:03 PM: Calendar restored.

As of now, I believe the only major issue left is the errors received on the Gallery pages. It's working, but something is still awry. I'm pretty blurry-eyed :eek: right now so I'm going to save it for tomorrow. Most forum functionality has been restored. Please contact me or post here with any issues. Thanks again for your patience...

I was getting the stack error, to. Interestingly, it then persisted through every IE window I had open until I closed them all and started over.

Works now, though.

It appears that Gallery 1.5.1 is incompatible with phpBB 2.0.18. I'm awaiting a fix to be released. Until then, the Gallery is useable so simply ignore the warning messages.

I implemented a temporary fix to get the Gallery to display properly. Please let me know if you experience any other issues.

Bob made an observation that the new Quick Reply mod we are using has a "Preview" button. Nice addition! :beer:

I'd just delete line 190, if I were you.

Of course, I don't know the first thing about any of it, but that's never stopped me from stating an opinion before.
