We have just launched our new discussions forum, new features include RSS/ATOM feeds, search and a revamped look and feel.
This update is mostly behind the scenes, however there are a few pages which have been revamped for the new framework, Join, Login and Reset Password.
There has also been a slight change in the login procedure, it now requires you to login with your email address instead of your username. As an added bonus you can now stay logged in on multiple computers/devices if you wish.
The server move is now complete and login access has been restored.
Due to our current hosting package not meeting the requirements for parts of the new site framework there has been a delay in launching the second stage of the upgrade. To solve this we will be moving the website to a VPS (Virtual Private Server).
The move will occur over the next 24 hours. During this time the site will be in a read-only state and you will not be able to login. This is to prevent inconsistencies between the old and new server as the switch takes place.
We will notify you here once the server move is complete and login access has been restored.
We are in the process of migrating to a new and improved site framework. This will be done in three stages over the next few weeks:
Get the new framework running side-by-side with the old one and handling a few static pages. This is where we are now.
This involves restructuring the account system to operate under the new framework. This will enable us to migrate the dynamic pages on the site to the new framework. This should be seamless and invisible to members.
Spit into several sub-stages, migrating the remaining dynamic pages one-by-one to the new framework.
Alongside the new framework comes a refined site design, we hope you like it. We'll keep you updated as we complete each stage.
