Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted July 30, 2013 Hi all, Just to let you know there will be some downtime on Thursday whilst Toby and myself upgrade the vBulletin software and do some essential maintenance. Today we migrated to a new server (apologies for the 15 mins downtime earlier, I pushed the DNS transfer button too early!) and hopefully the site should feel a little snappier now. Significant changes are happening on Thursday (hopefully fixing some long term bugs too) and perhaps something new for you all... We'll see ;) Any questions - pop them below. Thanks, all.

Critical_Mass 10 Posted July 31, 2013 Afraid to say we're talking about removing that - not exactly 'work friendly' is it :( Yeah had crossed my mind to be honest. NUmerous times ive got the error whilst at work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted August 1, 2013 Should I make an Excel spreadsheet pop up instead? Probably more suitable for work, then... ;) Yes, hopefully all the above errors will be fixed. Last night's downtime was unplanned sadly, but the new server developed a fault and had to be rebuilt. I still plan to do the software upgrades tonight and try and quash some bugs!

VR-Sixy 0 Posted August 1, 2013 I got a really weird response when i tried to log in at home last night and this morning. A totally different website something to do with the management of corrado.net, servers or something..... i can't remember the name of it, but if it happens again, i'll take a screen-grab and post it up from work tomorrow.

Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted August 1, 2013 When you can't get to the site, you should always check Twitter ;) There was some unscheduled downtime last night due to a problem with the server. Tonight's will still go ahead, but probably after 8pm.. https://twitter.com/corradoforum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 11 Posted August 1, 2013 ergh i hate it, cant get used to it, its horrendous etc etc.. :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted August 1, 2013 Yeah yeah.. ;) Go buy a Corrado! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted August 1, 2013 Liking the new look! My only request - any way of putting back the 'show posts since last visit' that used to happen when you clicked the forum banner? The 'Whats New' button does something kind of similar... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted August 1, 2013 That's the new 'Activity stream' which does the same thing - except instead of just posts/threads, it'll also tell you about new wiki posts (when enabled) and albums that have been posted in your absence. I know the avatars are going over the post info at the moment - I'll look at fixing that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
