To keep up with latest bug fixes I will be upgrading to patch level 2 later on this evening. We should see many changes or much downtime.

We have many plug in's too, so I will be upgrading a few of them at a time.
 
Vbulletin Upgrade went without any problems. Well had to 'chmod' some directory's in SSH to change permissions of directory's and files inside other directory's.
 
And didn't even notice - yay!
 
Needing to upgrade VBMail, however it required a later version of PHP. This is like an operating system for websites.

So Just going to upgrade that now. Currently running 5.5.38.

I can switch to 5.6.30, 7.0.15 7.0.16, 7.1.1 or 7.1.2

No come plug ins may not work with later versions. Website may crash, but I can recover. So going to give it a go.
 
Forum couldn't run in PHP 7 or above, but Vbulletin are working on making it work, its in beta version at the moment. So I will wait for the release version to come out.
Running PHP 5.6.30 now.
 
Issue upgrading to latest DBSEO V2.0.38 causes some malformed links.

Reverted to an older version and works fine. Reported the issue, so hopefully its just a setting in one of the millions of settings in the forum settings.
