Forum Downtime - software update 12/3-5

[Big-Foot]

You’re going to really like XenForo software from an Administration perspective. I am an Admin on another XenForo site that migrated from VBulletin.

I wish we could have the choice of search engines when searching for something I prefer "Duck Duck Go" to google

search features are browser/user configurations
download your fav browser and tell it you like ducks

you will probably have to use a add-on or extension to your browser
example for firefox ....https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/desktop/firefox/

just so this thread is current............ added another post

anyone that has not read this thread site may be down for a couple of days
while they update stuff
like adding a ...... Like button

December 3 -5 expect interruptions or no forum at all?

The forum has a built-in search function and I'm sure the new software will too.

You are free to use whatever browser to search for anything you want. That's completely separate from the forum.

Wait... what?
I'm hoping there is a "Don't Like" button because I'd use it on your post.

We've all waited for a better experience and if not having the forum for a few days makes that happen, that is certainly not unacceptable.

Geesh!
