Site has officially been migrated

Post by TheoSqua »

Gatewayredbirds is officially on a new webhost.

The first thing you'll notice is when you go to gatewayredbirds.com it now redirects you to gatewayredbirds.org. This is temporary until I can work with @MichaeI to get the gatewayredbirds.com domain pointed to our new hosts. Then both the .org and .com domains will work.

The second thing you will notice is that we lost about 24 hours of posts. Unfortunately i had to engage the host support team to resolve some issues after the data migration and it was decided that doing the migration a second time to get a days worth of posts was not worth it. My apologies.

Please let me know if you run into any bugs or issues with the forum. I would consider the next week or so a live beta test - and if for some reason we have to revert back to the old host any posts made will be lost.

KNOWN ISSUES:
- the redirect from gatewayredbirds.com to gatewayredbirds.org is not very good.
- cookies seem to not be working, so saving your username/password is not working and users have to log-in every time they go to GRB.
- saving images via imgur is not working.

We’re looking into a detention website somewhere in the Dakotas for deported members. If you have any experience as a correction officer, please consider submitting your bona fides once we open up the portal.

Does spending a weekend in the hoosegow count as bona fides?

Maybe this is the change the Cards need to right the ship.

You really didn't have to go through all this trouble to throw Moxie off our trail. He hasn't been around these parts in years.
