pmvForum | Wrong vF Version (25th May 09 at 2:29am UTC)
Mine is .1 out! :( | | Forum URL: http://wrighty.vforums.co.uk
Ross - as you can see the above forum is running vF version 1.6 where as:
nick.vforums.co.uk and community.vforums.co.uk are 1.7 
Just wondering if you can make it so that it runs the right one please? | |

pmwww | | Re: Wrong vF Version (25th May 09 at 3:18am UTC) | | I believe those forums are part of the BETA testing for v1.7; it hasn't been released to all forums yet. 
Unless you're asking to be a part of the testing? | |

pmskypemsnyahoo | | Re: Wrong vF Version (25th May 09 at 3:59am UTC) | | Hmm. I don't remember asking for community to be upgraded. Was 1.7 rolled out to random boards as a test?
I looked at a few other random ones and I see:
<pre id="line76">var vf_version = '1.6.5';
</pre> | |

Look at source code for those boards and others.
 Code: - <pre id="line116"> var vf_version = '1.6.5';
- var vf_username = 'ashkir';
- var vf_displayname = 'Ash.';
- var vf_usergroup = Array('9');
- var vf_posts = 736;
- var vf_total_pms = 77;
- var vf_new_pms = 0;
- var vf_skin = 2;
- var vf_width = "862";
- var vf_hiddenvars = "";
- var vf_conn = "support";
- var vf_pendingmembers = false;

pmskypemsnyahoo | | Re: Wrong vF Version (25th May 09 at 7:07am UTC) | | Odd.
guide is: var vf_version = '1.6';
timeline is: var vf_version = '1.6.5';
nick is: var vf_version = '1.7';
rpg is: var vf_version = '1.6.5'
guide is my main test board for obvious reasons. And timeline is an rpg idea I'm juggling around, rpg is an upcoming rpg. (I had the board, best friend wanted it hence hers). Nick is my secret stuff =P | |

pmwwwgtalkvForum | | Re: Wrong vF Version (25th May 09 at 2:13pm UTC) | | At this time, no user forums are running v1.7. They all run the same set of features, I believe v1.6.5. Some claim they have different versions but they are wrong. The 3 different numbers would come from a mixture of:
1. Some forums had a test run on their database structure to try out the v1.7 convertor. That would have updated their version number even though their source code would not have changed.
2. There may be an inconsistency between those forums which were created prior to v1.6.5 and those created afterwards. Perhaps the ones created afterwards didn't get the correct version number put into their database. But still, they would be running the same source code as all other forums. | |

pmvForum | | Re: Wrong vF Version (25th May 09 at 2:43pm UTC) | | Would there be a reason why my code doesn't work on 2 forums, yet it works on one? The one with 1.6 as the vf_version is the one that it works on - where as the others are 1.7  | |

All forums (with the exception of 3 which I run) use exactly the same source code. The only difference with some forums is their database structure which has been updated. However that would have no effect on if a code would work or not. | |
