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.
bigsmile 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).<

What Version is Used at the Support Forums?
Snitz Forums 2000 Version 3.4.04
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.blush<

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<
