Search Me!

[TMcCO'G]

Has any progress been made in getting the site back up and running?

I can not access the search facility which I had bookmarked and visited every day. Nor can I access any of the rest of the site.

Many of the pages have been moved as I've rewritten them in PHP to be slightly cleverer. Usually I would have old URLs forwarded to the new ones, but due to an unknown change in the server setup I have not been able to get that working yet. I hope to get it sorted soon, I have come up with a new theory about what the cause of the problem might be, and it rests on my sisadmin's* shoulders at the moment.

The site is, however, back up, and I think everything is there. You will have to go to http://apronyms.com and click on links to get to the parts you want, as old bookmarks may not work.

I would if I could, believe me.
But I can't, I can't, I can't..... not even if I put in  wwu-wu-wu!

I finally got through, scrap that last message.

It's probably too late now, but the URL forwarding is working again so all your old bookmarks will work again. The nicer URLs for categories (e.g. http://apronyms.com/computers/donoteat) are also working again.

I've heard rumours that some decent mailing list software will be installed on the server so the Apronym Times could be the sort of list which you can subscribe to or unsubscribe from automatically.

As often happens when hard disks are erased, the fresh start allows for a period of quick development nourished by the memory of the lost data, resulting in a better setup than before. It's a lot like a bushfire, but nobody loses carbon credits.
