    I finally upgraded my site to EE2.  I did quite a bit of prep work for it and it paid off.  It went super smooth this morning and I doubt anyone can even tell 😊

    The main items that kept me from upgrading sooner were:
    - A replacement for the Weever addon -> I used Threaded Comments by Yuri at IntoEEtive
    - A way to get the Videoplug addon working in EE2 -> Yuri was kind enough to update this for me (PM me and I’d be happy to share)
    - Database was too large - Needed an alternative upgrade option which became available at the end of October

    The addons I’m using on the site now are:
    Wygwam
    MD Page Detect
    Short’n Tweet
    Allow EE Code
    Low Title
    VideoPlug
    Threaded Comments

    Out of interest, how big was your forum, which from the looks of it was the culprit with your db issue? I can;t see a forum on your site to check the number of thread/posts?
