Default PLEASE READ: Fbodyonline.com Upgrading!

Fbodyonline.com is doing well in its first 2 months online, and we're glad to have you all as members, and hope you continue to support the site, and spread the word along.

We've decided to upgrade our forum software to vBulletin this upcoming week. This will happey most likely tuesday or wednesday, maybe a bit earlier or later. Don't worry, as all of your posts, and info will carry over to the new board so we have nothing to worry about after the switch. All you'll have to do is clear your cookies and most likely switch your password.
Since our passwords are encrypted here on our SMF forum, vBulletin may not recognize them, but you can reset your password by easily clicking the link on the new login after we have switched.

We are "upgrading" because vBulletin is a more widely recognized forum software, and can do more of what I'd like to do with the site in the very near future

I will keep everyone updated on what is going on, and if you see the site change a bit, just remember if you cant login to reset your password.


Thanks,
Andy.

I think I have an idea of the add-ons you are looking at.

Just a little update.

I'll be purchasing vB either tomorrow night or wednesday morning. Depending how long the process takes to clear and stuff, I want to have it up and switched completely by friday.

Another update:
I've bought the software, bought it last night so within 24 hrs from now I should have it (they are verifying payment and said within 2 business days). From there I'll install a few test boards and see how the import of posts and things goes. After reading for a bit, I am pretty sure we're all gonna have to reset our passwords and birthdays, so just stick with me through it, and after its over we'll have a better board. I should have it done by saturday sometime as long as we don't run into any large problems.

The Test board is up, for the most part things went smoothly.

You'll have to do a few things to get back on as I expected. When you see the new board (either tonight or tomorrow) just go to log in, use your name and password and it will give you an error. This is expected. It will say: Forgotten your password? click HERE. Do that and then it will ask you for the email you used to register on the forums here. After that it will send you a email and link in the email to get your new password.

After that just sign right in with the new password. You can then change your password again to something you'll remember better once you're signed in.

Thanks for the patience everyone. If anyone needs any help doing this once I get it up, either email me or talk to me on aim: Rocket442Olds
