VALIANTFANS.COM on a new server

greg · Post by **greg** » Wed Aug 31, 2005 10:16:53 am

VALIANTFANS.COM has moved to a new webhost
in order to give us a larger database for the messageboard.

Certain functionality is still "in the works"...
Among them... the search function is probably useless,
and the ability to remain logged in is probably impaired.

Until the domain name "catches up" to the new changes,
you can find the messageboard at:
http://70.96.188.39/~valiantf/forum/

I will attempt to make pointers and forwards that get everyone here.

Let me know if there are other problems
(besides search and automatically staying logged in)!

EDIT: I believe changes are implemented...
http://valiantfans.com/forum/
should be alive and well.

Looks like the same place we all know and love, I am sure this server will be fine, I plan on posting more often so the move to a bigger server is probably a good idea

I forgot to mention that the messageboard is from 8:30am this morning (8/31).

Posts between 8:30am and about 9am were probably lost.
(Hopefully, there were few, if any.)

Glad to see everyone's doing ok on the new server.
I've noticed that post time is much faster so far!

Whew...that was scary! I tried to log onto the message board over lunch today and got a 'server is down' message.

I could feel the withdrawal symptoms coming on....

Follow-up: I know that the search function is still down/poor...
but what about automatic login? Is anyone able to "stay logged in"
if they close their browser and then come back in an all new window?

auto log-in just worked for me, great so far

I have noticed that when the site automatically logs me back in their are new posts to read highlighted correctly. Once I click on one category (General for example), all the hightlighted topics go away. They if I go back to the main Index all the other topics that were previously hightlighted for new messages are no longer highlighted. Anyone else noticed this or am I on certain drugs?

I noticed that too... I think it is a difference between
using ValiantFans.com (which is starting to work for some)
and using 70.96.188.39/~valiantf (which is how we started yesterday).
Until everyone can successfully connect to ValiantFans.com
(and keep that name in their browser while they're on the board,)
we'll probably have some problems with the automatic logins.
