Re: Merging of the forums?
Also, any chance we can get fast reply turned on?
Edit: and flood control turned off? ;)
Re: Merging of the forums?
No, there won't be a merging. The idea is to start with a clean slate.
There are also other complications, but the plan is that if we can get a copy of the existing DB that we may be able to have the old the old data as an archive. This is not a for sure thing but something that we will try to do.
I will look at quick reply again but when it was enabled before it actually seemed to remove the ability to have the full post editor option, and the flood control is to prevent (slow) bots from coming in and spam post flooding.

If you have forced registration with CAPTCHA the spam bots should not be too much of an issue. I mentioned the fast reply as it is that many less page loads on the server and it is quick and easy. If you need any help, I admin and run a number of forums.

Need to update the Teams Toolbar so that when you click on "Forum" it sends you here not the old one!

Re: Merging of the forums?
Blkjack, if you want to do a full DB backup of the old forum, I'd be happy to create a permanent archive here alongside the new forum.
