On The Periphery

Appologies for the recent dead air, we here at Veraida have been trying consolidate a number of our servers. As part of the consolidation, we have chosen to host all of our Drupal sites off one multi-site installation of Drupal.

This required us to update all sites, so that they were all running on the same version of Drupal - something which we have since found out is easier said than done. Especially when we had bee neglecting out internal sites (they weren't broke, so no reason to update them)!! Thus OnThePeriphery was updated 2 major versions (from 4 to 6).

Template

Regular readers will notice a distinct lack of our 'orange' template and those who are familiar with Drupal will recognise the default template. Our template did not survive the upgrade, it seems we will have to do a number of modifications to the template to ensure the site is usable. The template should hopefully be back on line ASAP.

Modules

All of the modules had to be updated, and with most them we had to do mulitple sequential updates.

Things are still not 100% here, and we are working through the issues slowly.

Suffice to say, I don't think we will be neglecting updates in the future!!
