v5 beta zone question

[Thomasss]

1.) when are invites coming out?

2.) What happens to the copy of our forum when we upgrade our original to v5

3.) When we make a copy, will the codes and boards in it be copied with?

1. That hasn't been answered. Did you go to the Proboards page on Facebook and "like" them to sign up?

2 and 3 may be answered on this thread

That does not answer my questions, and yes i signed up yesterday

I sort of misread question number 3. Anyway, my best guesses are this.

2. The copy will cease to exist after some period of time. I'm sure that they will keep it out there for a while so that you can export the plugins you added to the copy to your original, upgraded forum.

3. I don't think your existing codes will be part of the copy, no. They've said most everything will be done with plugins and templates, so you would essentially be starting from scratch with the copy. You will find plugins to do what the codes currently do, plus you will have access to the HTML for customization.

I assume that will be like how the full release will be. I think they will give you a downloadable copy of your headers/footers.

Awesome, thanks for the help
