Site software upgrades.

[Alan92RTTT]

We are going to be going through a sound of upgrades.

We will probably have some daily downtime for a few days right around/after midnight EST for the next few days.

Any user facing enhancements?

[Alan92RTTT]

Just latest vbulletin that may cause some temporary visual changes. Which may motivate me to fix some of the color issues.

[Alan92RTTT]

[Jimvr4]

This is every link changing.

The site was using something called vbSEO to help search. But the plugin was abandoned and hacked. I thought I had it fixed but it got hacked again so vbSEO had to go.

Which means every URL on the site just changed. unless I can find a new plugin that supports the old format......

The "like" button is gone. It's now impossible for me to like this.

Like being gone is not intentional. After the forum software upgrade I'll be upgrading the plugins and it should come back.

Can't you just run a script to map the old links to new URLs?

Url's are generated dynamically and not stored. The software decodes them to figure out what to display.
