Richard, I see the forum here has already been upgraded to 3.4.05 but Bug #5 is not fixed.
The "a" needs to be replaced with "an" because it precedes a word that starts with a vowel.

Thanks for all your hard work!!! (and the rest of the dev team)<

since Bug #5 isn't a bug, I don't think it really matters.<

I didn't actually replace the files here on this forum yet. There are some files that have been edited and I didn't want to overwrite them. All I did on this forum is update the version # in the database, all of the security related bug-fixes had already been applied. I will eventually update the files here on this forum to the newest versions though (except for the ones that had been edited otherwise).<

This problem actually happens each time we update the version # of the forum. The value is taken from the Application Variable, but since that page is outside of the forum directory, there are actually 2 sets of Application Variables. For now I have just hard-coded the correct version, it will usually fix itself in a day or two.<

You could Edit/Change/Create a global.asa file which will force IIS to restart the website hence dumping the old App variables and refreshing them.<

I've done that before, but I don't really like to do it. Last time I did that, the site didn't work for about 20 minutes.<

Good point, it does on occasion not work as it should, which can be really frustrating.<

Thanks for the upgrade.

I had not applied many mods at the time of the last upgrade so just re-applied my required mods to the new snitz code.

However this time i have installed many mods over the last few months. Is it possible to detail what changes have been made, to the files in the snitz code that have been upgraded?

Out of the 30 files included in the upgrade, 21 i can just upload, but 9 have been moded to varying levels of complexity.

Cheers, Jensen<

Jensen,

Download a copy of beyondcompare from http://scootersoftware.com, it is an invaluable tool when it comes to comparing changes in files, it will enable you to make the required changes to your code.<

You're going to need to reapply your mods because the upgrade is the base code.

Thanks to the snitz devs for the update.<

Hi,
This is my first post. I installed Snitz for a non-profit agency (hearingloss.org) about a year ago and have been happy with it. Many kudos to the development team!
My question is: can we use the upgrade download to upgrade from 3.4.03 to 3.4.05 or do we need to do the entire load?
Also, we have had problems (I think with XP SP2 and Norton security software). I saw some fixes available. Are these in the .05 version?

Thanks,
Nathan<
