'Lessons'
Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
I have to say that another site I'm affiliated with (the Save Farscape site over on WDsection.com) is having a terrible time with HostRocket. They've flung up their hands in despair and are attempting to relocate the entire site and all the forums. Hostrocket frelled up the redirect on savefarscape.com and has supplied almost nothing in the way of customer support.
Just... FYI.
Did we know that some bastard is squatting on buffistas.com?
No -- that's us. We have .net, .com and .org.
t Duh. I got the "reserved for" message and was fooled.
How do we make it so .com and .net forward here?
Jesse, you have to log in to domaindiscover.com (our registrar), and point both of them to the URL [link]
Done! Wheeee!
I even remembered the password.
Has anyone written an external threadsucker (in the style of John H's getwx.pl) for the Phoenix Board? Or would it be easier to simply provide an internal PHP script/page that dumps an entire thread to ``printable'' HTML (i.e. no sidebar, no first/previous/next/last links, etc.)?
And, in case anyone is wondering, yes, I'd be happy to code either or both.
[Edited to indicate that I know the proper term for the Phoenix is `forum' rather than `thread,' but `forumsucker' just sounds strange.]
A question of no urgency but my own curiosity: what's the difference between hits and visitors in that table ita posted? What is each counting? Because I've heard those terms used interchangeably.
One visitor can have many hits. One visit can have many hits.
Karl, for sucking I have nothing formal in place, but a sequence of mini-hacks that takes about 10 minutes to result in something like this archived natter thread [LARGE].
