BMG 3.0: it’s happening this weekend

By

As you know, we have been planning a transition off of Soapblox and onto our custom-designed WordPress platform for some time.  We’ve tinkered and tested, and we’ve tried to address the many helpful comments that you have given on the beta site.

Now, it’s time.  Barring any unforeseen last-minute snags, THIS WEEKEND (April 23-24) we will be making the transition from Soapblox to WordPress.

What does this mean?  A couple of things.

First, we will “freeze” the site on Friday afternoon – i.e., we will not allow any new posts, comments, or user signups starting at about 5 pm on Friday until the transition is complete.  This is to be sure that we do not lose any content during the transition.  You’ll still be able to read, but you won’t be able to post.

Second, we expect to be able to import all existing user names to the new site – but we cannot import passwords.  Therefore, in order to log in post-transition, you’ll have to follow the “forgot password” protocol to have the system email you a new password.  Once you’ve logged in with that, you can reset your password to whatever you’d like.

Third, we are certain that there will be problems and questions as people get used to the new system.  Our tech team will be standing by throughout the post-transition period, and we will do our best to deal with problems quickly.  We do ask that you have patience as we all iron out the new system’s wrinkles together.

Thank you, as always, for your support of BMG.

    • You ask a very Massachusetts question.  We do love our low number license plates and our low number BMG ID.  Even after this prestige-stripping change, I will still look up to you and your status on this most wonderful forum.
