SMF (the old board we were running) was getting outdated and I'm not a big fan of the newer version of their stuff (SMF 2.0). This board will be different, and I know the change is going to be painful - but I'm pretty confident there are some cool new features in this board that will make up for...

I'm sure there are going to be a bunch of things that the move has broken - if you've got a problem, noticed something odd around the place or just want to ask about something that's gone missing, here's the place!

Re: Football topic ? It may have been an error on which delete button was hit, as there was a spam post at the bottom of it... Dug it up from beyond the grave and it's back where it should be. Cheers, Jon

Fixed this - it was a settings issue. Cheers, Jon

To confirm, this is what the board settings are set to. It should give best attempts to resize anything uploaded that's outsize, but if it's really large I'm not confident. Cheers, Jon

Occasionally the RSS feed will fall out of sync with the frontpage - it's a problem, but until I do some major work on the main site it's fairly unavoidable. Thanks, Jon

I've posted an explanation of today's downtime here: http://forum.maidenfans.com/index.php?topic=20708.0 Cheers, Jon

Hi all, Apologies for the downtime earlier today. Unfortunately the hard disk in the server failed in a precarious way that meant things had to be taken offline, completely backed up, repaired and verified to avoid data loss. Fortunately, the process was successful and things are now up and...

Hi - sorry for not noticing this sooner! I've investigated and found the problem, hopefully things are changed so it shouldn't happen again. Cheers, Jon

I'll wade in here briefly. I was very surprised to learn that we were missing posts, and similarly so when I realised SMF is configured to let users delete topics and posts. Part of starting or continuing a discussion is contributing to it... if you can delete those contributions, it makes the...

That's roughly the way it is. I'm evaluating a move to some different bulletin board software, so it might change before long. Cheers, Jon

How hyperlinks are handled is mostly a function of the board software. I believe I've seen vBB and phpBB doing something similar to what you suggest - the way things work here is the default for SMF (SimpleMachines Forum). If we shift board software, the way hyperlinks are handled will change -...

If there are really threads going missing I'd be interested to see some examples - content should never be deleted. If there are things that have been deleted I will retrieve them from backup.

As above, I've edited my post now - everything's great and all the orders seem to have been tracked. Many thanks !

I've added a set of links for Amazon CA now. Cheers, Jon

Don't worry about it :)

It's worth waiting a day on the Amazon US links if you can - I'm not 100% those are going to track right now. Edit 14-07-2010: All is fine and tracking. Cheers for everyone's support! Cheers, Jon

Hi all, Along with The Final Frontier video, I've posted a set of links on the front page to the various versions of the album at Amazon US & UK which allow you to support Maidenfans.com while you pre-order. http://maidenfans.com/2010/the-final-fr ... o-premiere No obligation, but we really...

I've run some maintainance scripts that seem to have fixed this - I may have to investigate some different board software if problems continue. Cheers, Jon
