What is "SMF"??
« on: September 24, 2007, 07:32:55 am »
Why has the site changed at the top of each page? All of the different forum links are gone and instead of saying ArcadeControls.com is says SMF.

I forget what it stands for, but SMF is the forum software that Saint uses. If you look at the bottom of evry page it says "Powered by SMF".

This has happened at least once before.  For some reason SMF has gone back to a default configuration.

Saint or Sir Woogie probably applied an update or something.

We will probably have to wait for them to roll out of bed and have their coffee before it will get fixed. :D

Simple Machines Forum = SMF.  Looks like he's upgrading to the latest version, I'd give them a couple days to get everything re-installed.  Wonder if they're installing that trader feedback system as well? :D

Yeah, SMF v1.1.2 was running on here up till today, now it shows 1.1.3.  Always good to see the sawdust from site-construction :D.

bah. This is now the 6th time I forgot the logo when I upgrade! Fixed.

We must get to a new theme so whenever I do these patches I don't have to futz with them all. I don't use classic, so I don't see it right away.

Can you bring the forum shortcuts at the top back? I really like those.

We always made a duplicate theme from the forums default, with all our changes in it, so upgrades wouldn't squash it, but that was on Invision Power Board, not sure if SMF gives that option or not.  Might have to load it up on our web server just to see what all it's capable of now :).

The classic and default themes that come with SMF get whacked each time. I want to eventually get rid of classic, and have only one custom theme that is based on default. Thus, when we upgrade, things work. :)
