And anything you post in V4 doesn't show up in V3.
I.e. that post i made about it being mobile friendly, Ben.

Correct 2 different databases. V4 is a a backup of this db, modified to suit the new software.

This one for the moment. Instructions on how to switch themes over are rather complicated, will try it next week at work lol.
When it's done, I'll rename the v4 folder to v3. That way everyone will automatically be directed to the new one & all links in posts will still work.

Still getting hammered by the Russians. Will have to look at doing this again. Plus the version we're still on goes end of life next year.
I've locked the registration down to admin only, so if you know anyone that wants in, let me know. I'll have to find them in the list. I can't manage the pending list anymore, there's almost 10,000 pending Russians lol
