Great to see the new version. Just running thru the changes...
 
When I click on Calendar Settings on the admin menu I go to admin_calendar_configuration.asp. When I click on Private Messenger Settings on the admin menu I go to admin_pm_configuration.asp.
 
However, when I click update on either of these I go to admin_pm_calendar_configuration.asp.
 
I assume you are separating these options and the intension is for admin_pm_calendar_configuration.asp to be deleted and the update button(s) to call the respective new screen.

Now live with no issues so far. If it helps or reminds anyone, the process for me is:
 
Create a site subfolder called \forum1 and copy in the new forum files.
 
Take the following actions:
* Copy in my old customised CSS files (first check there are no new entries)
* Copy in my old database_connection.asp
* Copy in my old header.asp and footer.asp
* Copy in my old \uploads folder and set permissions to allow uploads
* Copy in my old \uploadsa and \uploadsi folders from previous versions
* Switch off Birthdays (and reinstate any other customisation you have)
* Test using \forum1
* Go live by renaming \forum to \forumold and \forum1 to \forum

It seems I had to visit admin_pm_configuration.asp and set up the number of private messages to get Private Messenger to work again. It may have been a glitch here or maybe a general issue worth checking.

It was probally related to the issue earlier with the page submitting to the wrong file as it should not reset the number of PM's a user can receive.

I had the 9.07 version and I installed the 9.50.

Everything ok BUT there is a strange problem....

Although the home page has the correct version number....all the other pages show the 9.07 version!!...The version_inc.asp file is the correct one.

Any ideas?

The forum runs here http://www.tabletennis.gr/forum/ - http://www.tabletennis.gr/forum/

I had a look at your forum and it says you are running 9.07 on all pages.

Looking through your forum it appears that you have not updated all the changed files from 9.50. It looks like you have not updated file like defualt.asp, includes/version_inc.asp, and I don't know how many others.

Have a look in the Version History file for the changed files and update all those files to get your forum running as 9.50. Missing out any of the changed files may mean that security issues are not patched, new features are missing, and your forum may not be stable.

Actually I have uploaded all the new files as I downloaded the new version included the version_inc.asp file.
 
The only file I didn't touch was the default.asp file

If you update from 9.08, you dont need to update the database right?
 
Also for user to email, you have to delete all private email and bring it down to less than 5 right?

To do a normal upgrade you need to do only what I said above.
 
No database update and no fiddles with emails ?!?!

Nick,
 
Sorry, I mean private mail.  I have to batch delete of all it.  The 8.* had unlimited private mail before.
 
OK, so no db update.
 
The other thing is I see a few active users, all 5 guests.  All of them are Guest 1,2,3, etc and one of them is a Robot google.

Quite often you will see "numerous" guests, and most of these will be search engines crawling your site
