Title/Job Description: Upgrading from 3.2.3 to latest patch (or patch that is ok with php8)
Target audience: (e.g. professionals, hobbyists, students) We are cricket book collectors, most of use are getting on a bit lol , we can follow instructions but sometimes things are just a bit complicated.
Reward: (e. g. money, backlinks, fame) Let us know,
Deadline: None
Preferred contact method: (e.g. PM, e-mail) Email is best
Link to the board: www.wisdenclub.com
Detailed description of the tasks: When I had the technical ability I upgraded our board regularly and it was easy to do in small chunks, however after one bad upgrade i am a bit scared to do it so have left it. The forum is 17 years old! and hence has a lot of memories , in fact it has outlived a few members , recently i hosted our cricket clubs sponsor page and needed wordpress, for this i had to do php 8 on the hosting and then realised the forum wasnt working (just a blank screen) , on 7.3 it is fine, later it is broken. Hence I need to get to php8 and have a working forum, and i really dont want to break it. It is a simple forum, 2 extensions of which we only really need 1 (external pop ups) , our site is a free to use and makes no profit other than about a fiver a month from ebay clicks but happy to fund for peace of mind if required.
Looking forward to any help
Thank you
Chris
