Re: important question

I think that the updat would be easy, just upload all the files. Because we do not need to change any of the files we can safely replace the files.
I think smile

Re: important question

i am not worried about the files ... its the database ... i dont know how it works ... never had experience but i know its broks very easily ... and also the (db_update.php) file is a little different .. i wonder if it only add data ... or remove its too ...

any way i dont trust that file ...

Re: important question

db_update.php should be able to take your database up to the current revision level.
That being said, you should not be using beta software in a production environment.

Re: important question

Re: important question

Fine, just don't make any modifications yourself, apply any extensions or spend any time playing with the stylesheet because updates might come along which will trash all your work.

oh dont worry about that ... extensions can be removed very easily ... and there is no one making styles and i dont know much about css ...

by the way ... are we close to the next beta or may be final release ... because i am tired of all this waiting ...

Pardon??

"extensions can be removed very easily " Not so much about them being removed but if a new way of doing something comes, then you have to update the mod..

"are we close" Sorry i dont see you working your ass off the do work on punbb.

"because i am tired of all this waiting" I dont think you have a say in how long it is going to take. You have to put up with the wait, we have had to wait ages for a 1.3 beta, its been less than 1 month.

Sorry. Unactive due to personal life.

Re: important question

Not liking your attitude more like.. your "question" came across quite negative...

Sorry if mind felt offensive but you seem to give the Dev team a hard time

Sorry. Unactive due to personal life.

Re: important question

Yes, it was a question. It was also a question that was phrased in a fairly rude and obnoxious manner, which is why matt reacted the way he did. wink

Re: important question

Well then, what was rude about it was the way it was phrased. It was phrased as if the developers were being remiss in their duties and as if you were entitled to make demands of them, neither of which are true. A better way to phrase it is "How close are we to a new beta or a final release"
