That is correct. We are still running on an old version and the original plan from admin was to update in January, but quite a bit of life decided to get in everyone's way.

This will be my first time upgrading the site like this, which is why I have such a large window set up for it. A lot of things will also most likely break once we update and I need to find replacements and fixes when they do.
 
Awesome work! Excited to find out what the trick or treating is, and excited to see the upgraded site when you get past all the finnicky code!

I've never seen Over the Garden Wall, so I'll have to try and be around for that.

Ooooh, super exciting!

Let me know if there is anything I can do help, if you need any research or technical support I'm happy to assist in any way I can. No direct experience with XenForo 2.1 (outside of custom BBCode, which I'm sure I'll pester you about later) but I speak the technical jargon so... that's helpful in troubleshooting situations.

You're a gift! I appreciate it - I will most likely take you up on it. The php aspect of things makes my head spin, and I'm trying to get comfy with that before we start, but I will be making a back up right before I get started on it so no one has to worry about something getting lost as we transition ♥
