Presumably, this forum is now solely for V3.4 and the Help: General / Previous Versions is for V3.3.05 and back.
Wouldn't it be better to change the name of the forum to Help: General / V3.4 and the other forum to something like Help: General / <=V3.3.05 to stop any possible confusion?
Just my tuppence worth. |

Okay, I originally posted this in Announcements: Community but it's been moved here. I didn't want to mix a question about the Snitz Forums 2000 site with general queries about forum code but, hey-ho! |

You think? There's been two post in Help: General / Previous versions today and dozens in Help: General / Current Version. If all those posts are to do with v3.4 then i'll eat my proverbial hat. |

Yes, that's true.
quote: It's a good idea after all, but the naming used now makes it easier to administrate.
I disagree. People would be more likely to post in the forum related to the version of Snitz they are running which should surely make the forums easier to administer? |

quote: Even you posted in the wrong forum, and it has been moved to a wrong forum, because in my opinion this belongs to Suggest forum.snitz.com content since it is about the forum here.
I posted it in Announcements: Community because it is near the top and because nobody looks at Suggest forum.snitz.com content anyway, even though I agree with you that it was probably the most suitable place for this post.
quote: Has anyone ever really read the Do's and Dont's? Only a few people post their forum version, database used, all that stuff.
This is too true. I have a forum on my site purely for promoting since I get so many people spamming my boards with message for their band/gig/website etc. and yet my mods and I still have to constantly move or delete spam.
Perhaps a moderator could move this topic again to the Suggest forum.snitz.com content forum? |

quote: so would this make sense to keep a forum for each version?
You'd end up with a lot of forums doing it that way! I think perhaps just the latest version forum should change its name. |

Oh, and thankyou Ruirib!
Some more opinions would be good. Don't want to feel like a mud-raker here! |

I understand what you are saying, but in a week people will only occasionally post in the wrong forum. I've already started moving posts from the General Help/Current Version to the Previous Versions forum. With time and patience, everything will go Ok. If the Admins agree with you they'll change the name, but IMO there is not a huge need to do it. |
