Yes, 3.8, which is what we're running.I suppose that's one of the advantages to switching to a new theme.
Are we sure that vB plugin works with vB3?
You don't sound like a bitch, you sound like someone who knows what they're talking about, which is why I suggested you in the first place.I dunno, I've always liked the 'old feel' of this place, because New gets old quite quickly, and what really matters anyway, is that the thing is somewhat user friendly and actually works. That's what makes people come back. The web/ phones/ stuff is changing design and standards in a very rapid pace these days - and with good reason; it's the same old 'change shit so people want the New Shit and then we make money'. I'm not really into all of that. It's kind of like buying a new pair of shoes just because they're new, and then two weeks later you want a newer pair.
I know I sound old and tired saying this, but I've worked with too many UX and marketing people over the last two years that I know that what people WANT NOW OMG BECAUSE LOOK EVERYONE ELSE HAS IT AAAAAA is rarely a good reason to change user interface and functionality. Look at what you want to achieve before buying those choose. What do we really want? I'd say a good structure of the written words, where people feel like they can easily interact. That's what should be the heart of the thing. Not 'we want to look professional', because a) the content should reflect that, and b) we aren't anyway
(Sorry if I sound like a bitch, I've been at a developer conference all day and then moved crap around in my new place for hours and now I've had a well deserved Pale Ale)
I'm aware that I probably push for too much change sometimes, but a lot of that is because I know there are just as many people who don't want to change anything, and my hope is that we'll reach a compromise. Still, go back to my original idea for the consultation and you'll see that my first question was "what are our most pressing reasons to upgrade?". I know I don't have all the answers.
I can't really say anything about that.For me, it's a question of a) tools and b) Yop. And c) project management drains a developer and I do enough of that at work (omg this thing needs to be green like right now omgggg you're the tech FUCKING FIX IT ALREADY AAAAA) and I have a feeling it's the same for Yop.
