We have moved server \o/

Post by indigolemon » Tue Oct 16, 2018 6:52 pm

Hi all

it's done

welcome to the shiny new home of LG!

We still have stuff to sort out, like the wiki etc, but the forum is now on up to date software and should be better on mobiles etc too.

Let us know in this thread if you hit any issues.

Also, our apologies, but there may be a few days of posts we were unable to grab. Really sorry about that, it took much longer than we expected to get everything into a state where we could achieve this.

I've been going round fixing any issues I've found, but please let me know if you stumble across anything!

Note that we have lost some features, things like tagging etc. I'm looking into what we can get back, so hopefully I'll be sorting that out over the next days and weeks.

I don't know if it's just a case that all the posts haven't been moved over yet or something on my end but I can't see any posts made after the 16th October!

Yes, this is unfortunately the case. It's taken us the best part of 4 weeks to get this sorted out :( We had so many customisations on the old site that we had to pick away the database tables, and clean up all the posts/profiles etc to get this to work. A simple move turned into an utter frightmare.

I'm really sorry to anyone who has posted in that time :(

Quite right, no more than they deserve tbh :lol:

Ok tags are back - but in this version are called mentions - they work the same as the tags before, I've added a shortcut in the editor for them.

Yes, I think it was already 4 pages long with various comments etc. :(

Hi man, I know it's only a small consolation but I've rescued your posts from that thread and reinstated them. Working on all the comments etc atm.

Really sorry about this, what should have taken us a night turned into a four week slog to get this thing updated.
