DJet, can we implement two step registration where an application needs to be approved by a mod? Would help with our compliance with the new UK Online Safety Act also.

oh yes we can - in fact that’s how my Matrasport.dk/forum has always run - but it obviously puts more load on you moderators.

Also, the last few years the server has lost its email forwarder, without which it requires admin logging in and checking (rather than receiving an email)

For matrasport I *do* get emails, but that’s because it lives inside the same server - I don’t think the old server can send emails as it is - though I thought I saw evidence of this new version somehow overcoming that. Do you receive emails from the forum when PM’s arrive or similar ?

I prefer completing the switch to the (much) newer physical server and get the email sorted there, before we change the registration stuff. That will also put us on the newest SMF version, where dealing with the newest legislation is easier.

Yeah thanks Kev, we had a sudden influx of new registrations which must have been bottled up in the old version. I've deleted the accounts but keep reporting if more turn up.

Looks fine to me, what's he eventual goal and purpose? Just updating software?

PM's indeed work :-)

Well, my last many years at work (I am now retired!!) I was awfully busy in great ways - but it meant I never felt I was on top of the forum software to an extent where I could update and fix any issues that almost inevitably comes along (themes etc)

So we were still running embarrassingly old software - and still are (!). This version 2.0.19 is the newest possible on the old OS on the server itself, but 2.0.19 is a LOT better securitywise than the 1.1.21 we were running up until now.

I have a much newer and much more powerful server installed in the datacentre, more or less ready to take over. This runs current OS and a brand new way of separating the websites (for security reasons).

I have two SMF forums (this and the www.matrasport.dk) on it, and 5-6 more static websites plus some email systems, but once I feel like taking the plunge, I will swap IP address of the servers.
