Hi Don,
Saw this in admin box but it didn’t come to me otherwise, as a reg’d
forum administrator. strange. anyway don mentioned to me in a private phone call he’s hiring a reseller seo to help with promoting the forum to the top of the surfing sites.
all looks good, much easier on the eyes, but for two things. the
first, small, is that the time is off by an hour. showed 5:27pm when
the time was 4:27.
Second is the message under system tab. see image below. Are we
already behind or will we be getting the latest version on sunday?
er, obviously my password and un worked.
kindest,
Shari
