New Host and Forum Install

Post by LanikSJ »

Folks,

I have some good news. This weekend I've been working on setting up the new forum:

http://sh132.surpasshosting.com/~lanik/index.php

Please test it out. I have 30 days to move/come up with a domain for it. From what I can tell it behaves much faster then what I have here, and for $12 for a whole year can't really go wrong plus their support has been very helpful and patient as I get the forum up and running.

Once again thanks for your patience, now Rick go beat the crap out of it. :mrgreen:

Happy New Year everyone!

I just want to clarify something this forum is setup on a different environment so please give it a whirl.

Wow ... from what I have done there so far, it is a mile above this host :mrgreen:

I can't beat the crap out of it though, Lanik, because the ACP login connects to your "lanik.us" domain (which obviously is still this one) ... seems the ACP is not a "relative' link.

Great job and thanks. You da' man! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I do see that you logged in twice on the new host. Not sure why are you being directed back to this forum you should be directed on the same site. They are completely identical so it might look the same but its not. Minus the mods for time being and all that good stuff.

EDIT: OH SHIT!! Found a bug when I imported the database it overwrote my server settings. Should be good to go now. BTW you can't email from that forum yet until I get a domain going.

Whatever you did, it's working fine now :) . It stays on the surpasshosting domain now. I thought it might be a cookie issue but I guess not. I know that they are identical ... but the address changed back to the "lanik.us" domain after I logged in to the ACP.
