Manta did all the work. I just kept her company!

We suffered an sql injection attack, which included a multitude of redirects. When Manta fixed it the first time, it happened again. We THINK we figured out the where/how of this, and she is working on that right now.

Read only mode is still in effect, yes. We think we found the source of how the injections happened, and Manta is working on that now.

Amallah, Yours looks to be activated. Be sure that you remember to enter in everything with caps where you have them, as login is case sensitive.

One more bug for manta to squish it looks like. I got nothing on this one.

yes

try it again, and this time let me actually look at it.

I actually think it may be something as simple as clearing your cookies. With the migration, cookie tweaks and a few other things, cookies definitely need to be reset. As to the blocked loading, you can fix that in your browser for the time being.

https is what you need, not http

I’ll wait for the images then.

Tried a test posting of a story. it worked fine. If you could step out for me exactly what you did, perhaps I can help you find out where it went weird on you.

I tried opening chapters in several old stories, and cannot replicate the issue. Have you tried a force refresh since all the changes, and deleted your browser cache?

As with just about anything, this didn’t go as smoothly as it could have and should have, given that it’s an intracompany transfer, from Nexcess to LiquidWeb, their parent company. So, instead of finishing up by, say the 3rd, we finally finished this all up by the 19th. Having said all that, I have to say I am really excited about the change, and here’s why. SSL finally works as intended moving from Interworx to cPanel has made a huge difference. We can actually tailor PHP needs to different subdomains. For example, the forum needs 8.x, and has that version. The archive is on 7.x. Manta is working on bringing all of it up to 8.x The ability to use the later versions of both PHP and my SQL are necessary to be able to implement things that we could NOT in lesser versions. The hardware is worlds away from what we used to have. More powerful, and efficient. Much better physical virus protection Much better spam protection Mind you, Manta and I both tend to work a bunch IRL, so the SNAFU on the timeline really, really, put a wrench in things. BIG BIG thank you to Manta for carrying the load during this migration, as work, as it tends to do, wouldn’t let me have time off for much of anything. Go figure.

With the server change, backfield software change, and other things, I can talk to the coder and see if we can actually implement across the mini database like that. I doubt it, but I can ask.

The forum doesn’t have the option of saving a post as a draft, as that would cause unnecessary database loads.

I take that back. You have to clear the cache of your browser. Not the cookies, just the browsing data itself. Then press ctrl+F5 (which is refresh). Mind you, for some reason the actual home page isn’t wanting to work, but you can go to each and every subdomain and it all loads and works.

You may have to ctrl+refresh while the DNS updates and propagates

There will be downtime at 2 am EDT on July 13th to replace part of the RAID array. Also, the migration is nearly done

This has to do with our system migration. We are getting a better server. Migration should be done end of day today

We will be upgrading our server hardware July 1st. There may be some down time involved while things are transferred from old to new.

The account was not activated after attempting updating. I’ve fixed that, so you just need to login with your gmail address and the password you created 5 days ago
