Had to roll back the content module, the new version would not update properly and would no longer show content (which is why I do backups before any updates).
The other modules updated fine. The site seems to be working well.
The new version of piCal has a common folder with some type of java script calenders included. I was not sure how to use it (was not in the documentation) so I did not upload. I will research this to see if it is a valuable feature.
Hi John, aplogies for the disconnect, last cpl days have been krazy, but good. Go ahead with tis part as we'll need some of these for next build anyways. I'll start a new project entry when i get back later. chat soon.
IMPORTANT MODULES TO FOCUS ON:
content
smartpartner
evennews (a replacement or take it over? adoption can be used for backlinks etc, might be worth considering, cost analysis if u can)
news
pical
weblog
xcgallery
multimenu
Mailer did this;
Sent conf email when I requested new p/w
Clicked link in conf email, took me to site page that says "new p/w sent"
But NO email was sent with a new p/w (not that I could find anywhere at least), profile is inaccessible, and it did NOT repeat that process when I tried it again.

Modules Maximum 2 hours.
Email issue will require testing, problably 3 to 4 hours. An hour testing, time to comb logs and track down problem, then test the fix. Would need root access to server using secure shell, as well as control panel access.
There is a new replacement for evennews. The only problem is that it is not a free module. Let me know and I will get the information to you. It is called SimpleNewsletter.
Client, the f-ing City of LA, is having issues paying, so anything we do here is to be considered prep to update/upgrade other sites in portfolio and any new builds, you probably noticed that there's set of modules that get used repeatedly.
The hard links issue; Only in IE, works as expected in Firefox.
Not crazy about going to 2.3 unless it's as stable as 2.0.18.1 and can be supported, will consider on your advisement.

The others are secondary in importance, but will be useful to have best of.
Give me an hourly estimate to get all that done so I can schedule them in increments I can afford (another job may start this week).
And let me know what you need access wise.
Thanks.
Seems to be some problems with theme hard links. Instead of the proper http://hsdnc.org/ they seem to be coded as http://hsdnc.able4.com/ in the theme. Click on one of these links and you are instantly logged out.

Hi John, there's a bunch of tweaks and such on this gig I'd like to get done and then run upgrades on all other sites based on the ones made here. Let me know what else u need (info etc) and please gimme a run down of what's up with site before proceeding on changes.
