So the redesign is just making the advertising bar bigger? XD Nice.

shouldn't be any downtime, but it might take a while for everyone to get the new page.

Arn, you're great. You run the BEST Mac/iDevice forum with the best and friendliest users. I can't wait for the redesign! Would you just mind tweeting before you make the site go down (you said it won't go down, but if it does, please warn us)? Last time it went down, I was in the middle of writing a post, and when I hit "post," I got an error. I think I tweeted you when that happened (I'm @igesundheit).

Is this the update that will also bring a new back-end as well? Like the "rumored" WordPress back-end?

Yes, the bulk of the time it's taken has been redoing the backend and tweaking things to get it working properly. It's not a vanilla wp install.

Pretty sure Arn has said they won't change. It's worth finding the thread from 7 (I think) years ago when Arn last redid the site.

EDIT: Here it is.

For this update, the forums will just get the header updated to match the rest of the site. I am planning on looking into a more substantial forum update after the changeover. We're sticking with vbulletin though. Just a matter of bringing it up to 4.x and updating the style to match.

im guessing the redesign has not taken place yet?

or maybe I'm wrong, and when you say it will be a modest redesign, you really meant it.
