test upgrade

a 4.7 copy of eglug.org (08-11-2006 9:30 pm GMT+2) is now running over here: http://test.eglug.org/

see if you are good enough to spot some errors, and add them to the list..

List of upgrade47 gotchas:
  • theme tables are ugly.
  • revisions lost.
  • lost diff module, no 4.7 version. a patch exists http://drupal.org/node/40414 but doesn't apply to recent HEAD. MSameer contributed the port to 4.7. Thanks!
  • new access permissions introduced. need to check and assign them for roles.
  • many hardcoded relative links where assuming <base> tag, in 4.7 we should manually prefix each link by base_path().
note for self and others.. things to be tested/done
  • flexinode. as in project page they mention that not all fields were ported to 4.7. all ported
  • theme uses hardcoded forms, should use 4.7's Forms API.
  • image_filter, diff, rankvote, wiki, members are all cvs modules. should test.
  • consider the comments here http://www.eglug.org/upgrade_47 done, most of them suggest better ways of doing things.
  • Search button in header is devoid of text.
