Due to ongoing annoying issues with this new server :cwm3:, I will move the site to a new one at around 6pm, or more accurately, after the last race at Aintree :icon_lol:
I moved to a new server only a few weeks ago, but this current one uses the Plesk control panel. It does not seem to work well with large forums, as I have discovered. So, we are all moving back to CPanel (not that you lot care :biggrin:).
Everything has already been moved, I just need to copy the latest database, and redirect the DNS. The copying only takes about 5 minutes, as I have done a couple of dry runs. The latter can take between a few minutes to an hour or two, as it depends on how often your IP updates it's DNS records.
After this move, the forum should be back to being quicker and more stable. If it isn't, you will find me dribbling in a corner, sticking pins in a small doll that looks like Trump. :Rasp:
