Sorry, misunderstood what you were saying. But anyway, the delay is about getting the transfer to work properly.

I also have to admit that the bugs you've got here I have never seen in the other boards I use. There phpBB runs smoothy.

The transition to V-bulletin was resulting in some of the database not successfully transferring so we have had to stay with the phpbb for now. The glitches with phpbb started when we did an upgrade to a newer version of phpbb; perhaps something we shouldn't have done in hindsight. News update:

Greetings,

Or more specifically, taking a back-up prior to upgrades would be useful, so it's easier to "roll back" to the previous version if required.

I'm quite pleased with it though. Just got my first ever mail notification from Dhammawheel!

It's really fantastic to have these features back again. They were sorely missed.

Thank you David, and the whole team for all your hard work. No doubt you are accumulating a lot of merit

Thanks Jack (though the technical stuff is nothing to do with me).

By the way, that's a lovely new set of feathers you've got...

Cheers Mike, just got the winter plumage in.
