I like to throw money at a problem, so I'm sitting here smiling at Charlie Brown's teacher waiting for her to tell me if I need to write a check.
Buffistas Building a Better Board ++
Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
No need for money right now. The transition won't cost anything. It sounds like overall expense will be less overall, though that will depend on server load. It's hard to imagine it will be more though.
I need to update the deployment notes, but the beta site is back. Now it's at www.buffistas.me.
The database has been newly migrated so if you will have to reactive your account even if you already did on the previous beta site.
When you click on Read New when there aren't any new messages, it should return you to Message Center, not Buffistas Home.
Also, the password reset is broken. Still goes to beta.buffistas.me.
(Though if you change the URL to www.buffistas.me, you can still reset your password.) (testing)
Thanks for the testing.
I am trying to poke around in my spare time. Limited as that is. :)
Fixed the URL in password reset. Probably will look at Read New next.
Fixed Read New.
Do we want to rewrite some of the pages like the FAQ, Board how-to, and Site Etiquette? I could just port the exiting pages over to the new site. For admins, the new site will allow the creation and editing of pages on-line in the Admin section.
I think the top to-do code-wise will be providing some admin links inside the threads, so you don't have to navigate through the admin section to maintain a thread.
