OK, it looks like the upgrade really should be happeining this week. They have been taking it very slow because of some early problems. They are up to server 39 at this point (we are on server 46).
We will have a notice showing on the main page approximately 24 hours before the upgrade begins. Once it starts, you will not be able to access the board and it will be obvious that the upgrade is occurring. The process should take around 24-36 hours. Once it is complete, there will be some maintenance I need to do, so I will probably have us in maintenance mode for awhile.
There are several codes that I have in place to make the board look and work the way it does. Some of these codes clash with the upgraded version, which has been the source of some problems on earlier servers. Because of that, I will be removing all codes when we get the 24 hour notice. That means the board will lose some features and will look different. When we are back up, I will have us in maintenance mode so I can test each code individually to make sure none of them causes problems.
Lastly, and most importantly - when we are back up, you will need to log in and then an access code will be emailed to you. You cannot access the board without this access code (you will not need it each time you log in, don't worry). If you have a spam blocker on your email, please make sure you allow mail from PCOS Mommies. I will be sending out a mass email to everyone, so if you don't receive it shortly, that means you need to enable email from us.
