Server Maintenance
On the 5th of February we will be performing a bit of server maintenance.
While doing this, we might break stuff and make our website vanish from the internet. If that happens, do not worry, it will only be temporary and we will return.
This maintenance affects all our websites so the forum and premium support system might also be unavailable for a while.

End of the world… sort of
So it’s finally here… that time of the year/decade/century when the world ends… again… apparently…
Hopefully you’ve put all your earthly businesses in order, emptied your bank account, watched all apocalypse films one more time and are all set and ready to go – into the afterlife/reincarnation/abyss…
Security vulnerability in older Mantra versions
It has come to our attention that there’s a security vulnerability in older Mantra version.
The affected versions are 1.7.7 to 1.8.9.1. No other versions are affected.
If you are running any of these versions, please update as soon as possible.
If you are unable to update due to various modifications/customizations you have performed on the theme, delete the mantra/admin/upload-file.php file to remove the vulnerability.
These two version have been out for quite some time, but it seems mr. Kay is too busy with gaming lately, so this time I’ll take over the job of publishing the changelogs. So here they are…
