Moving the SFWW website to a new host

Thu, 09/23/2004 - 11:41am — acmfox

Hi Gang,

I am in the process of moving the SFWW website to a new host. When the move is complete, SFWW will no longer be a child under the acmfox.com site, but it's own entity! (This is because I have gotten into the hosting business and it isn't costing much.)

Anyway, you can test out the new pages at: http://mercedes.websitewelcome.com/~sfwriter/

If all seems to be going well, I will be making the move of the pages permanent in a few days. The wiki, chat, and this forum will stay where they are for the time being, until we can work out all the details of moving those functions. (The links on the new pages point to the old site for these functions.)

Also, I am trying out a new wiki package. I'll be putting a link on the (new) wiki pointer page that you can use to test it out as well.

www.sfwritersworkshop.org is now moved

I moved the website and wiki to the new host and it seems to be working. The forum and chat will stay where they are for now.

You can tell that you are on the new host because the web address will now point to www.sfwritersworkshop.org (rather than www.acmfox.com). You might want to check/change your bookmarks, especially before posting in the wiki to make sure you are working on the correct site since I have not taken the old site down yet.

I am also installing some upgrades to the wiki, so watch the wiki home page for updates and/or warnings.

If you notice any problems, please let me know.

Thanks!

To move forum and chat, I need to change some configuration stuff. Can it wait until mid-October? I'm in Malaysia right now...

I'm not a complete idiot -- some parts are missing.

Certainly! There is no rush. There are some small but significant differences with the new server that we should discuss. If October is too soon, November is fine also.

Hope things are well in Malaysia Smiling

Took a couple hours of fiddling... but it's done! The forum seems to be working in its new home. I think / hope.
