So the latest is that this weekend I will be updating the forum software itself. I will be taking the proper precautions with the data (backup etc.) but while I am doing the upgrade the forum will be offline.
The PHP version upgrade, while successful, was too new for the MyBB forum software that I am running, which admittedly is quite old. That meant that some of the MyBB functionality (like Search) broke.
It is my hope that the upgrade is quick and when it comes back online all the functionality will be restored, we'll have some new features, our posts will be there and we will have a freshened look and improved security as well. Fingers crossed.
I'll likely make another post before taking the Forum down.
