Mvc Release 1.1.2

This release contains all the files required to Install a new Snitz Mvc forum or upgrade an existing classic asp version of Snitz Forums 2000
Any MODs you may have installed in your classic ASP forum will no longer work in the MVC version. However, some functionality of the mods is now built in, and there are some plugins available of the most popular classic ASP MODs

If you are upgrading an existing MVC version.
[list][*]Remove the Themes folder from the Content folder before replacing any files on your webserver, this will preserve any CSS changes you have made.[/*][*]Remove the .config files in the root folder as you do not want to replace these.[/*][*]If you have modified any of the view files, you should remove those from the relevent folders before replacing your web files, you will need to merge the code in the files you have edited manually.[/*][/list]

Plugin Updates

If you are installing the plugins for the first time, just upload the contents of the extracted zip file to your forum folder, Log in to the forum as an Administrator and navigate to Admin | Other | Tools and perform an application reset. The plugins should install themselves.

If you already have the plugins installed, remove the App_Data folder from the extracted folders before uploading to your web server

Depends what you want to do, coding it is reasonably easy if , but in general it is not so simple as classic asp as you would need to recompile the dll's if you make any changes to the code or database that is not just a simple UI change, so requires Visual studio and a separate dev environment to make changes to before updating your website. Should you make any changes to base code files it would also mean manually upgrading from the source code.

Plugins are reasonably easy to implement, but even then you a restricted because base code is all in dll's so changes to existing database tables or functions is not so easy.
