So it's been a busy week for us here:
1. Successfully converted SMF to Xenforo. This first step was to re-establish user accounts, and the main forum data (forums, threads, posts) on the new platform. The Xenforo package is natively mobile-ready, which was MUCH needed over the old SMF platform. Now you can browse easily on any device.
2. Successfully fixed the broken registration process. Users can now register without manual assistance or approval.
3. Email notifications are fixed. Registration emails are sending again, and activity notification emails are working. NOTE: check your spam folders if you believe this to be untrue, and if you're still not getting notifications, please let me know.
4. Secure communications enabled. We are 100% https now for web traffic.
5. New member map installed. The old SMF member map had some issues. The new one hopefully won't have any.
Upcoming enhancements:
1. Gallery - this will be back online next week. I need to install it and convert the content.
2. Portal / Home page - this will be up and running hopefully next week to make it a little more interesting looking around here.
3. Fix broken links - internal links to the old SMF style urls need to be fixed. I have a plan for this, but it will require some work. So be aware links from outside and internally that were made prior to the conversion will most likely land you on a page that says it couldn't find what you asked for.
4. Whatever little tweaks I find along the way...
That's it for now. It's been a bit of a journey but one long overdue. Please continue to use the specific Xenforo forum to post any questions or issues you might have:

Also, if anybody wants to see a particular enhancement or has a suggestion post it in the suggestions forum:

Thanks all!
