I just wanted to bring to your attention the fact that you're still running phpBB 2.0.4 and that phpBB 2.0.9 was released today. Might want to think about upgrading. Wink

If in doubt, wait a little while, as a new version of EasyMOD should hopefully be out soon, too. Cool

I don't want to mess up the forums (because of all the mods i have installed). Is there a direct update from 2.0.4 to 2.0.9? Or will i have to do all the updates?

Starting over with fresh files would be the easiest way. Use EasyMOD to reinstall the MODs. It also gives you a change to upgrade them... and switch to CashMOD (if you haven't already).

Eh? Scratch Think

1) That made no sense. Laughing
2) They release new versions of 2.0.x for a reason. 2.0.5 through 2.0.9 have all been bug/security fixes.

Oops, i meant "So i can have loads of templates", not mods. Sorry about that.

And, there's no point in doing a load of work now to upgrade to 2.0.09 if I'm going to have to upgrade to 2.2 again soon afterwards.

Um... yes there is. They're two different animals. Besides, whether you plan on upgrading to 2.2 or not, the security holes and bugs that were fixed from 2.0.5 through 2.0.9 are present....
