Planned Forum Downtime - Saturday 25th September


Recommended Posts

Please note that the SIDC Forums will be offline for most, if not all day, on Saturday 25th September for major upgrade work.

If you attempt to access the Forums on that day whilst they are being worked on, you will see a pop-up screen similar to the following:

Firefox

Internet Exploder 8

Note that your SIDC username and password will NOT let you past that pop-up login

That block will allow me to carry out the upgrade work without any users accessing the Forums, which is essential to making sure it goes smoothly. As soon as the upgrade is complete the pop-up login will be removed and your normal username and password will work.

There are some cool new features coming with this upgrade including a totally NEW Personal Messaging system which automatically saves your PM's as "conversations" - both sent and received PM's and allows you to have private PM "conversations" with multiple users. It will also feature an all-new SIDC Garage, Time/Dyno Runs league table and social networking integration for the Facebook fans out there.

Tests of this upgrade indicate around 12 hours of downtime. Hopefully, with an early start, the upgrade will be completed by early Saturday evening. Thank you in advance for your patience. It WILL be worth it B)
