Thanks for making this the best Puppy Linux forum, ever!

Any effort on letting us modify the Forum FAQ, so it actually provides some specific info about this specific forum?
So it is not general generic info about phpBB forums.

Finished the OldForum upgrade as well.

@bigpup It looks like we will need to create a separate page for a specific FAQ pertaining to this forum specifically. Modifying this built in FAQ is complicated.

Better to make our own and present the option to see either one.

Changes include better site "hardening" and much improved phpBB native search functions

@rockedge, THANKS eversomuch for the 'ton' of work you've done in rescue and management of Puppy Linux Discussion Forum! :thumbup:

My use, today, shows all is well. This upgrade has gone ever-so-quietly! Thanks muchly, again, for all you efforts!!! :!: :!: :!:

Separately
Would a Puppy Linux "Forum" webpage have what is asked in prior posts from other members? :idea:

Then the currrent individual Puppy webpages (Barry's, Slacko, Fatdog, etc. webpages)could be updated to point to the Forum Introduction webpage which would direct users to the actual forum.

This, might, simplify the BBS allowing it remain focused on announcements, reports, assistance, and resolutions; in theory.
