If you are having any errors with your forum on the FFF servers

[Limez]

Some templates are using external .css files (like your black and white) those colors cannot be modified.

Some templates will allow you to change the colors, for example subSilver.

Thanks for the update and notice. Please keep us advised on what the s2/s3 URLs will change to.
Will the original URLs redirect to the new URL for those that might have bookmarked the old one?

Are the server slowdown and "too many connections" errors fully resolved now along with these changes?

No, work is not finished yet. But keep us updated on how things work, as you use the forums.

The new urls of s2 and s3 should be: http://www.forumforfree.com/forums/forumname.html (during the moves, as these are very large databases, downtime is to be expected)

hi again and thanks for your prompt reply- any chance i can get my old style WoWMoonclaw01 back, if not no problem, it's all good

I noticed the URL changed today for my FFF IPB s3 forum as mentioned eariler.
My original forum URL: http://s3.forumforfree.com/nighthawk.html
New forum URL: http://www.forumforfree.com/forums/nighthawk.html

However, after the URL change today, database links appear to be messed up or something. No member logins (including mine as administrator) are accepted! I can't log in at all.
Also links to files like avatars seem to be gone from viewing as a guest.

Please can this database issue be repaired? The forum is unusable while nobody registered can log in.

[Limez]

hi, yes I am aware of the inability of login/registration

I expect by tomorrow security updates to IPB be applied, new image Forumer's image verification installed, and logins and registration to be opened.

Thanks for the update, Limez.
Will the existing registrations, avatar images, etc. remain intact after all the updates are done?

Yes, there shouldn't be any data loss.

No problem. Hopefully there won't be anymore problems for a long time now.

Hi there,

Just want to know when the work on s3 forums would be done. The url to my s3 forum was: http://s3.forumforfree.com/blackbox.html and it's been down for over a week now. I tried the url http://www.forumforfree.com/forums/blackbox.html frequently but it's still not available.

Thanks!

Thanks. The links seemed not to be working under Maxthon Browser but worked well under IE. I haven't tried firefox yet 'coz I don't have it installed on my computer. Is it a browser compatibility problem?

[Kurisu]

Both links are loading for me under Firefox. It looks like a browser compatibility problem. I would use either IE or Firefox.
