Site downtime

The site hosts are having to move us to another server due to the company we use being bought out and making changes

Therefore we will experience intermittent downtime from Friday across the weekend whilst we migrate to a new server.

Whilst I am here, does anyone on the site have phpbb skills/knowledge? The site is in dire need of an upgrade and we don't have the services of Maineroadmemories any more who was brilliant in helping us a few years ago.

Many thanks
WW

Cheers WW

If we don't find anyone on here with phpbb skills, let us know if we need a whip round to get it sorted by a 3rd party.

Cheers gents, I spoke to king kev a while ago and he did mention we will need to have a whip around soon. We have been self sustainable for ages now. I will get an update from him at some point soon to know when the well is dry.

Cheers WW

I may have to sell the kids ISA, but it’s worth it ;-)

Basic phpbb skills, ask if needed. I develop and host all kinds of websites.

I have no applicable skills and the new house is bleeding me dry. But of course I'll chip in when/if needed.

We're good to go, just waiting to speak with the guys that host the site now so we can get ready to upgrade it all. It can stay hosted where it is now, or we can do it, either way a nice shiny new forum.

Still on the lookout for someone to perform the technical work.

Seems Blackadder isn't able to continue, as I have not had any response to PMs for quite some time.
