Last week, we did some actions for Fashionese Daily (FD). There are some changes applied for this high-traffic website. What are they?

First, we’re helping Hanzky — hey, congratulation for the new baby! — upgrading the server and also the forum. All processes were done without major problems. After having a discussion, Fashionese Daily came into decision to upgrade the server. It has more RAM now. After the upgrades, the website (especially the forum) run smoothly even on peak hours. Anyway, according to vBulletin forum statistics, there were 541 online users.

After upgrading the server, vBulletin also released its latest package: vBulletin 3.7.0. So, we decided to upgrade. Why? Because this release offers many great features and it will be great if we make it available for FD forum.

Even the features are there, but we made some recommendation first for FD. Just to make sure that it’s safe to have them in the forum — server-friendly is a must. And because there are many changes on the templates, we reverted the template to default template for 3.7.0 for the upgraded template. It took less than an hour to complete the whole process.
