Hello. I'm an administrator on a board with over 1000 members and almost 200,000 posts, so I don't want to do anything that could possibly destroy anything on this site.

I have the following MODS on my site:

1. ibProArcade enhanced
2. (M23) Welcome PM/Email
3. (M23) Guest Message
4. (D22) Shoutbox
5. (D23) People Viewing Forum
6. (D22) Bump Group from Warning
7. (T23) Mass PM Groups
8. (FSY-22) Members Online Today
9. Swear filter bypass per forum
10. (T23) Poll Logs
11. ibPhotohost
12. (Ci23) Affiliates System
13. [AH23] Miserable Member
14. (D22) PM Logs
15. Unreal Portal
16. D-23 Ban Member From Select Forums
17. (M23) Registration Bot Control
18. [AH23] Reputation System
19. iPoints system
20. ibAwards
21. Perfect Bookie v1.0.1
22. Mass Donate to a Group
23. Reorder Emoticons

Is there any chance that some of these modifications will not work after this feature install? I know I saw something about the unreal portal, so I will wait until after the new version comes out to install.

Also, I just want to confirm that all of my skins will also still be okay after this upgrade.

I have a lot of those mods on my site, and it should all work.

There's a few things you should do anyways:

  • Make an announcement to your members that something could happen and the site go down for a little while. Better safe than sorry smile.gif
  • Go through the code edits and make sure you have all the original code. Don't actually make the edits but look for where you need to. If you're missing a line of code that you need to change, chances are another mod is conflicting.
Good luck with minerva smile.gif

Thank you for your response. I'll install once they fix the unreal portal thing then. I noticed this site doesn't have a skin selector. Is this because of the SEO, or did they remove the skin selector coding.

He just doesn't have it enable. You can enable or disable it in the admin CP, and he just has it off. It has nothing to do with the SEO.

Oh, by the way, I'm sure you know this but make an SQL backup before installing.

i want to keep one skin so that there is no other issues with new edits when they come out.

Once i get a few hours to spare i will make a skin for icelabz. I rather have one skin on ipb and not many.

I think you will need to configure the FURL part of SEO">MSEO to work with some of your mods. I think this is the one issue you will face when using SEO">MSEO with all the mods you have.
