RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Tinker D - 12 Sep 2018
Correct. That is what I get on the “ Latest Thread “ after I look at all of them.
BUT, if anyone post or respond by adding something/anything new, nothing changes.

RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Like Ra - 12 Sep 2018
Hm... Everything is being updated. Just checked... What happens if you "Shift-Reload" (or Shift-Ctlr-R) the main forum index page?
RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Like Ra - 04 Oct 2018
Sooooooooooooooooo........... It finally happened! I went shopping and bought a separate IP-address for the site. For the first time in likera.com history only one site exists on the current IP-address, and the current IP-address correctly reverse-resolves to likera.com (what also dramatically decreases the spamminess level of the forum activation mails).
RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Tinker D - 04 Oct 2018
Are you telling me that you were on a shaired up?
My computer use to run on a static ip for years, before AT&T kicked me off. Said I wasn’t a business. So I tore into my modem and added a 1100 ah battery backup with a watchdog.
Kept my ip going for 16 years.
The tech I was cussing at at the end, said “ Wow, you had that IP address a long time. Maybe a record for a dimanic IP”. That’s when I found out I was paying static prices for diamanic services.
The story goes on, but it’s over. AT&T was not happy after that.

I hate this spellcheck.
Anyway to disable it from a f****** iPhone?
Up was ment to be IP
RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Like Ra - 04 Oct 2018
The site IP, not my home IP 😁
RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Tinker D - 04 Oct 2018
So your IPs aren’t linked?
RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Like Ra - 04 Oct 2018
Absolutely independent. The server (likera.com) is hosted in the US. I'm in EU.
RE: Site performance, Server errors, outages and tunings - Like Ra - 16 Oct 2018
Apparently I've reached this point again. I hate the design of this site, I hate the structure, I hate the menus, I hate how the site is shown on the mobile devices, I hate when the referenced material disappears, I hate to keep searching for and reuploading lost photos and videos, I hate to go through the lengthy troubleshooting procedure after upgrades, I hate promoting the site everywhere on the Internet, ....
I'm more or less happy with how the forum is organized - the result of moving posts and threads around to keep everything on-topic. Unfortunately it's not mobile friendly - the next major version will be dedicated to mobile devices, but ALL existing plugins will become incompatible after the upgrade. Unless the plugin developers are still around and are willing to rewrite their projects, some functionality will be lost. And I do not like the default theme, which is planned for that version.
The rest of the site is a different story. 16 years ago it was all HTML and frame based, then I rewrote it in PHP, then I added one blog software, later, when the blog platform became abandoned, moved to WordPress. Despite my efforts to update all bits and pieces, the site still contains atavistic elements, like very small pictures (to save space and bandwidth), incompatible with various browsers and devices pages, etc. Most of it looks severely outdated.
Out of despair I rewrote the main site page, removed a half out of it, and directly linked the forum, instead of the blog. Yeah, "the lowest hanging fruit"... The menu system is next in the urgent TODO list...
And as always - all your ideas are very welcome!
