DI vBulletin Upgrade Status

[409industries]

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for coming back. The upgrade went very well. Ben is the master when it comes to vBulletin and got the skin looking sweet! There are still some odds and ends crap that i need to get ironed out, so bear with me. Stupid things like some of the graphics are a bit rough, theres no forum descriptions, some simlies from old posts are missing, etc.

All this work couldn't have come at a worse time though. I'm frantically trying to ship out t's and sweatshirts, have a 2 day rallycross this weekend, and i'm trying to catch up with work from taking time of to go to SEMA. So ill have DI fourms 100% ASAP.

Thanks again!

Awesome work Aaron and Ben. Thanks for making that a quick and painless transition for all of the members. You guys rock

wow....i like!

[Ben]

No problem guys. Enjoy!

blix666: There are A LOT of settings that Aaron has to go through and change (literally thousands) as the default vBulletin configuration has lots of things either turned off when you want them on or vise versa. I'm sure Aaron will turn on the IMG tag for sigs and hundreds of other little things this week. My job was just to get the forum switched over, move your user accounts, threads, etc, and that all looks to have gone smoothly.

The one major thing you'll notice is that everything should load a lot faster now. The last time I did some work for Aaron it was moving this entire site from his old host on to one of my dedicated servers. The server is REALLY fast, but unfortunately the old software had some major issues and couldn't take advantage of that. Now that you guys are on vBulletin it should be lightning fast ;).

[409industries]

Absolutely! We will now be taking full advantage of the "least crappy forum software" out there... ;)

[img] tags have been added to signatures...

Me likey the new look! This forum kicks ass, good job Aaron.

[Drew84]

Yeah, digging the new look.

[409industries]

Look has the same "feel" IMO, with the added performance benefit of running vB. I am so stoked at how quickly the main index loads!!!
