Hosting change

Magnus · 16th May 2007, 19:03

We've signed up for new hosting for this site, and we're working on putting things in place for a switch over. That should happen in the next week or so.

Before it happens we'll post a notice about it. Then the site will be down for a few hours (at least). Every effort will be made to make the downtime as short as possible.

I've successfully tested to transfer everything from this site to our new hosting, so I know how that works now. So now I'm waiting for a good opportunity to do it. I will let you know as much in advance as I can, when the site will be transfered as there will be some downtime.

We've moved everything, and there are some problems we're trying to work out: the homepage doesn't work, and the gallery doesn't work.

We're working on it, and will have it fixed as soon as we possibly can.

Seems things are slowly improving:
- Homepage works now, apart from some formatting issues in Recent Threads
- Gallery still not working

- Recent threads on homepage working now
- Gallery working, but some pictures are missing. Copying them over right now, but it may take a while.

- There are some strange things going on when you Edit a message, and we're working on a fix. It seems you have to click the Edit button twice and then some strange code appears at the top of the page. Everything works, it just appears a bit strange.

This also seems to happen when you make a post, after you click the post button, it shows some strange things at the top of the screen. Just wait for that to go away, and you should come back to the normal screen, when posting a message.

- We upgraded to latest version of vBulletin.

I think it's almost done now. We have to sort out the SSL certificate, and there are a few other bits and pieces. But overall we've now moved host.
