The server received a hacking attack, which is caused by using outdated forum software (version 2 instead of 3). Support for version 2 was lifted some 3 months ago, and after that vulnerabilities that get discovered will not get repaired anymore.

I was still waiting to implement version 3, as it means that I will have to rebuild the style (the red and yellowish visual appearance) and also will have to rebuild the connection of the forum and the photo database with a still experimental bridge-file.

I will first practice on a test setup, so downtime and nonworking stuff will be as limited as possible.

Oh, this has nothing to do with the recent events. The attack came from professionals using the software to spread spam.

You might have noticed the forum looks different now. I will some day try and bring the old look back. First deal with the WIKI.

Yes, it looks like crap at the moment.

it looks different! Oh well... at least the data / pictures are still the same. User Interface (UI) can always be changed later!

I changed to style "subsilver2" which already looks more familiar, and the readability has improved.

The old board was based on "subsilver1" so I hope to create "bugattibuilder2" soon.

Change that fact, but that is part of the movement and this can be beneficial. For the moment we feel it's like in a house that is being renovated, it is a bit disoriented, but what counts is that at the end, everything is more beautiful than before. Remember to place the Bugatti logo.

Good work Herman :wink:
