Update on the old forum archive

Hi all


I have some news regarding the archive of the old posts in the previous forum (powered by Fusetalk)


The Fusetalk software will finally go offline permanently by the end of January 2020 meaning that it will no longer be available or searchable. As we’ve said previously the software is no longer supported and now poses a serious cybersecurity concern.


There will be a short length of time where discussions within the old forum will not be available while an archive is being prepared.  We suggest if there are any discussions you wish to keep for reference, that you save a copy of it before the end of January.


It has also been requested that we only archive the conversations posted on the old forum since the release of the 18th Edition Wiring regs (i.e. from July/August 2018) so that out-of-date regs information is not made available. So again, if there are any past conversations that you wish to keep a copy of then we’d recommend that you do so before the end of January.


Any questions please ask or email us at community-online@theiet.org

    Just a quick reminder that the old Fusetalk powered forum may suddenly disappear as of tomorrow and to reassure you that we do have a copy of the content database with all of the topics and threads etc.


    There are still discussions being had as to what format the archive will take and how far back the content in the archive will go but rest assured that we do have a full copy of the 45,000 or so topics that the old forum contained. ?
