Update info from Chris:
So while we've got a new engine and body work on our hot rod, we still need a custom paint job and other modifications. If you've got any suggestions or problems, please comment below.
Obviously the emoticons are not restored, so that's a big one.
Anything else you'd like to see happen or needs to be fixed?
I am pleased to report that the major part of the upgrade is now complete. The site is now back online using the latest version of vBulletin and all traffic is being served over HTTPS with end-to-end SSL encryption.
We are also likely going to give the underlying server an upgrade too, enable a global Content Delivery Network (CDN) and site-wide server-level caching to improve performance further but this should not result in any significant downtime. The major part has already been completed.
More medium term I am going to look into getting the new vBulletin 5 theme properly developed for WAB.
Please let me know of any immediate problem you might notice and I can try to look into them later today or tomorrow.
