Not until we move to a new host. Dad's working on it.

Yeah, this is a slow process. I'm trying to get the articles up on the main forum page so they are available but I have to weed out the HTML that came with them when one of the other techs (we do have another tech that lives in the shadows) pulled it from the server.

Whilst I do not know any of the actual specifics, it seems that the PufferPedia at least ug.php?g2_itemId=64 still works. Which leads me to believe its just an url rewrite issue. Which should be relatively easy to fix, assuming the hoster supports this.

it is a link issue. aka a "bridge" issue.

All the files are on the server, he could to go back and re-link them one by one or restore the bridge that links phpbb to Gallery2 (that is pufferpedia).

I'd rather he worked on moving us to the new server.

the data stored on those files will still have to be restored on the new host with the new software....

it might be prudent to sticky them for the time being so that they remain at the top.

Done. Now for the Library!

the library is in wordpress... the same situation applies. Links..


This one might be easier..

I just don't remember the titles..... if someone can recall an EXACT title it would be much appreciated.

nope not easier... harder...

none of the links go to direct pages. They only go to the directory where it is contained and it breaks down form there. Similar to gallery, you need the "id=xx" to make a direct link.

Sorry..

J-P, I very well know what the problem is. The bigger picture, that you're not seeing, is the amount of code that changed with the mySQL software update. As it stands we're lucky to still be up because of the current out of date software and customized software. There were sites that were down for days because of this and websites are booming with info and fixes for this but for newer software.
