New version of site and forum

Hi all,

     Following recent issues with the support site and forum, I have moved to a new server, more able (I hope :) ) to cope with the increased traffic and forum size. I had planned this for little while, but the repeated downtime of the recent days forced me to rush the move a bit. Nonetheless, I took the opportunity of the move to update things a little :

  • we have now a new template, courtesy of Chris Rault at JoomlaJunkie . Thanks Chris!
  • Fireboard is gone, and here comes SMF instead. I have chosen, for simplicity and time constraints, to use and independant installation of SMF rather than a bridge. All accounts must have been transferred, avatars included. Hopefully that will work out fine. Please use the contact form in case of problems. It means all old urls are gone, and and new urls are not SEF. Another consequence is that I have removed the Community builder demonstration page, as I don' want to have people register to the site itself (members of the site and of the forum would not keep in sync).
  • English is now the site default language. This is more in line with the visitors I have.

As you probably noticed as well, I have moved from extensions.siliana.net to extensions.siliana.com. This made things easier for the move.  Hopefully, all the needed redirections are there !

On the sh404SEF front side, there'll be a small update soon, with a few bug fixes, nothing major.

Hope you like it, and most of all, that this new setup will run fine now !

Cheers

Hi,

I've linked to a variety of posts on your old forum for my own future reference.

None of these links work, I can't find the posts I linked to!

Hi,

I don't know how to solve that. There are more than 8000 posts. I can't do redirects for them, and Fireboard 1.0 could just not handle this on my current host. Maybe FB 1.0.4 is better, but the memory consumption (and DB) as well was just too much with the traffic I was getting.
So I took the opportunity of the move to another server to change to a more robust forum software. I hope globally this will be a benefit.
While I am at it, there was a couple of glitches in the FB to SMF converter, just released, and they were fixed with the people on the SMF forum. So the converter should run pretty smoothly now.

Great menu system! Love it, but when i load the page my submenu is briefly visible and it then dissapears until its activated by a mousehover. Other then that it works great. Does anybody know how I could get this glitch to behave?

Hi,

Again, please do not ask for any support here. This is useless, nobody can see it. There is a forum dedicated to questions (and answers!)
Thanks again

Please contact the support department as soon as possible, and please have your site name ready.
