Title: Forum Migration
Post by: nocooler on May 21 2019, 09:47:54 AM
Mark and I have been working on the migration.
With any luck today we will move the database to the new site and migrate the DNS.
You might notice some interruptions, and we are doing everything we can to ensure no data loss.
Bear with me - I'll try to make this as painless as possible.

Ad banners aren't showing, but I never charged for them, and never had a vendor even thank me for running them, so... not an issue.  :D

probably a path issue again, or they need to be moved in over. I’ll check it out. Probably won’t happen until the kids go to bed.

Banners are working - 2 of them had broken links. transmission and hivelocity hosting, so I took them out of the rotation.

That theme looks like it ate itself, can use change to one of the other themes until I get I fixed up?
Profile - then there is a modify profile tab, and under that is look and layout.

Dave - I changed your profile, and let me know if you get an auto redirect now.
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: daveismissing on May 22 2019, 12:26:20 AM
That seemed to do it.  A profile can stop the redirect? interesting.

No Kidding!  It's great to have your efforts in maintaining this board!  I think all of us that hang out around here greatly appreciate the opportunity to be on a friendly board even if Dave is kinda grumpy!  Actually, he plays Grumpy in real life.

Dave - the theme was broke and there were some files that I dumped back in the www root

I wondered what happened to Motormouth.  I thought maybe Scoob pissed him off.

I’m just glad it went as smoothly as it did.
Wife and I are taking the kids to a hotel/water park in traverse city tomorrow - so I’ll be out of town until Friday afternoon. And busy most of the weekend.
Keep posting issues as they come up.

Okay, Jeremy!  Now that you are firmly established as The Man, fix the quick reply box so it can use the emoticons!  I know it is Einsteiniem, but, it frustrates me!

Post by: nocooler on May 22 2019, 11:35:26 AM
Works for me  :)
I’m on my phone so it’s safari - what browser Steve?  :sw:

Does not work for me with Duck or Tor, either
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: Forzfed on May 22 2019, 12:54:16 PM
No quick reply for me either but then again most my replies aren't quick. :icon_lol:   I'm using Firefox.
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: nocooler on May 22 2019, 01:02:22 PM
The quick reply I have to click in the text box 1st then they work.
I can smash them all day and they don't do anything until I click in the box.  :) :icon_smile: :026:
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: Steve Wood on May 22 2019, 01:23:59 PM
clicking in the box does nothing in my three cases
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: nocooler on May 22 2019, 01:32:05 PM
I made a change to your profile Steve, should be able to refresh the page and test again, but it might need the browser window closed and reopened

Quick reply box is broken, I'll look into it tomorrow.
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: SuperSix on May 22 2019, 09:12:27 PM
I should say - the quick reply box is broken on the Back in Black theme, not the standard board theme.
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: nocooler on May 22 2019, 09:42:53 PM
Mark - try it now
Title: Re: Forum Migration
Post by: SuperSix on May 22 2019, 09:54:59 PM
Mark - try it now
Not there. If I switch back to Curve (default theme) it's there.

And a sidebar - we need to find a mod that allows us to post screenshots/images to messages. :)

I was expecting 20 pages or so of complaints and the error log to be full, but I’m glad there isn’t.

I need to do some more research. For some reason chrome doesn't target the textbox automatically, every other browser I've tried works. I'm sure there is a way around it.
