Downtime Warning - 11am Today

[Chris F]

Morning all - we need to upgrade some of the processes in the background ahead of the next big update to TFF. It's safest to do this offline, so we will take the forum down for 15 minutes (ish) at 11am today.

If there are no visible changes at all, it has worked!

This is all in preparation for a new version of TFF with some updated functionality and the new APP.

Didn't work first time. Will be trying again tomorrow.

We have backups and mirrors. So things are never lost forever.

That said this is our 18th upgrade so we are fairly used to doing them now. The one we are preparing for is fairly big though. With some new features.

@Chris F You'd better be adding a "you're talking shite" button, beside the existing "like" one!!

Now that is something I could actually do. The server stuff, I’m lost on.

 

[Chris F]

Server upgrade was finished today.

If there are no visible changes at all, it has worked!

We are now into testing of the new version of TFF. If anyone would like to volunteer to be first to see the next version (don't get too excited) and do some testing then please add your name on here.

You’ve taken down the Amazon site instead!

Is there any way of moving the like/quote/reply buttons to the other side? I find I am inadvertently hitting the reply button particularly, when all I want to do is move the screen up. Repeatedly having to then delete the reply content to get rid of it.

What device are you using @Jamer can you post a screenshot as that would help advise the developer who is working on the look.
