Forum Re-open But In A Basic Limited Way

[Mike]

Ok major probs last couple of days

during upgrade of forum there was a prob with as a file didnt want to work with the server

as it involved posting, editing and such of posts it meant couldn't look at re-opening site till was sorted

as with these things never sure where the problem lies, and when trying to solve, another problem with server emerged, hence the lengthy down time

anyway does seem now that it may be problem with the actual forum software itself and so while waiting for them to get back to me, have managed to do a work round which allows the forum to reopen... in a limited form

open in limited basic form

the wysiwyg editor is not available,

the bbcode on all past posts are awaiting a rebuild and so some past posts like the past refosoul may look odd there may be probs with the actual format of posts

etc etc etc

look - default skin which means just the basic features

refosoul clips not available via forum

may be other stuff, way looking at it is...

if it works then fine, if it doesn't then it should be sorted very soon

thinks thats it, ask to remember that it is open in a limited form and hopefully be back to fullsteam asp

apoligies for not being able to give much details of when it be back, but due to the nature of the first problem and then the knock on effect, it was nearly always a case of .. hopefully within the next hour or so if this works...

reminds me of that simpson episode where marge got itchy and scratcy banned

on site apart from the forum post problem, the gallery, blogs, articles etc all should be near enough now back working display wise at least

hopefully get solution from the firm soonest, once do then should be back at full steam in a couple of days at most...

[Guest Michael Higgins]

My editor was delighted and slightly stunned at all the redrafts that have been coming in over the last few days, and will no doubt be less surprised to find that they will now dry up like a half finished bottle of plonk found in my fridge on a Sunday evening. I suspected sabotage.

Actually, for the last few days , I still did no work, didn't speak to the other half, didn't do ANYTHING different except hit the "re-try / re-fresh" button for hours on end until the site came back on !!! How sad is that !!!
