Forums update

Romance Divas Temp Forum up and running now….

And now a message from our diva admins–PLEASE READ!

1. Yes, we know it’s not the right color, that will get fixed soon.

2. I’ve had to reset all the permissions, so if you can’t access something you could before, you’re not being punished, it just needs to be reset.

3. This is the newest version of the board, so there may be some new features we don’t all know about yet.

4. Due to the board being whacked out, some spammers have probably gotten in. Let a mod know about them and they’ll be zapped into oblivion as soon as possible.

5. Any other problems/bugs/etc will be worked out in the next few days.

6. If an Admin does not respond to you, we are not ignoring your requests. This only means we are most likely on vacation and will contact you when they return. So have patience and we will be back on track in 2008!

Happy Holidays!

The forums are moving to a new host! A ticket for the service has been started, and the new forums should be up soon.

From Kristen :

Hey divas and divadudes! Here’s the latest:

Looks like we’ll be moving host companies. We’ll have one for the
main part of the website and one for the forum. Alan Morgan has
graciously and generously offered to host the non-forum part of the
site, once again proving the amazingness of the people involved in
this site.

The forum part of the process (barring any unforseen circumstances)
should get started on Monday after I talk to the new hosting company
(for the forum) and get some satisfactory answers to my questions. I
don’t know how long it will take, but that’s one of my questions so I
hope to have more info on Monday about that.

The Good: This should permanently solve our forum problems.

The Bad: I have no idea how long this move will take, especially
since it’s the holiday season.

The Ugly: We’ll have to repopulate the forum as I believe most of our
posts have been lost during this whole mess. However, based on the
chattiness of this loop, I don’t think that’s such an awful thing.
Yes, that’s a lot of info gone, but we’ll recover.

Lastly, I’ll post the grand total of what’s been donated to the RD
Web Fund on Monday. Thanks to all the many generous divas who have
stepped up in our time of need. You all are so fabulous there aren’t
words.

Love ya all.
Kristen

And a further update -

The ticket has been created to transfer the forum to our new host (and
hopefully our final host). I don’t know how long it will take, but when
they tell me, I’ll tell you. They don’t think more than a few days.

The best part is the Diva Web Fund generated enough money to pay for
the license renewal (for the board – we have to renew our license to
own it every year), the year’s worth of upgraded hosting and chat!

Things are happening!

Check back for more updates (or for the forums themselves to be back soon!)
