We will be starting to upgrade MySQL on our servers to bring it into line with the current latest version of MySQL version 8.0

This phased installation will commence on Tuesday 19th march 2024 at 23:00 GMT.

Your MySQL databases may be unavailable for up to 60 minutes while the  upgrade takes place so your web-sites may show database connection errors during this time.

WordPress and other up-to-date software should be compatible with MySQL 8.0. We will try to maximize compatibility but if you run older software you may need to check with the software vendor.

If you have any queries about this upgrade please let us know.
