Getting ready for 2017: new OS, new PHP, new MySQL, new CMS.
The website is getting a makeover. It's been needing it for a while.
It started with an update of the server's operating system.
That gave me new versions of PHP and MySQL. And the CMS I was using does run on the new version of PHP so a new CMS too.
The "new" CMS is just an update of Concrete5. Actually it's a fresh install. Normally you would update Concrete5 incrementally with each version released. But I jumped too many versions and did not want to step through each release. So I lost my content and will need to recreate it.
