I am running 5.46c, is there anything worth upgrading for? I would like your honest opinions.

TIA

Well, support, modifications, speed improvements (for small to medium boards), improved HTML, bugfixes, strict, warnings. It's worth upgrading, unless you have a HUGE forum.

Just a thought smile

Even if you don't have time to upgrade yet, grab the current version from the infopop members area now and install later - wouldn't want to run out of access without downloading it wink

would help... wink

I haven't had any problems upgrading v5 to v6, just be sure and upload all files in ascii, including the .pm files in the module folders, except for the graphics...

After all those are uploaded and permissions are set on all of them, run ubb_upgrade.cgi, then go from there....
