About this, going to move the website from dedicated server to a shared hosting, because can't manage servers anymore. Will move it to spaceship.com. It might take a while, and many errors and unreachable website can happen too. Please don't panic, not closing the website or anything like that, just moving it so it's easier to manage. Don't know how well it will function over there though, but we'll find out I guess.

Also maybe need to put it on a "read only" mode a while, so no changes happen to it while moving the database.

We have moved to spaceship.com now.

Please type in this thread in case you see weird errors.

How is the speed of the website by the way? To me it feels good and fast. Webhosting changed a lot since 10 years ago I guess. Although, we don't have that many visitors anymore so I guess if the website had the amount of visitors it used to have, maybe it wouldn't handle it on a shared hosting plan, but for now, seems ok.

So, spaceship.com suspended the account because it was using huge resources they said. It was on shared hosting. I moved it... anyway, long story short, we are back baby!

Also, .WEBP .WEBM .MP4 can be attached to posts as well now.

And finally updated the phpBB software and running on latest MySQL and PHP.

Took a few years, it's hard doing this crap with a tiny phone screen.

By the way, the website won't be as stable as before, because I cannot put it at a webhosting again, they will suspend it, so the uptime might be a little glitchy from time to time, but I guess that's alright. Not much can be done about it right now.

Speed seems okay. May vary some, you know...

There is a bit of an issue, maybe you're working on something... When you go into a thread with multiple pages...
Eh, here's a screenie:

I have the mouse pointer over 3 (top), URL is literally:

Oh! Thanks for this, missed this error. Was fixing SEO URL for other section, seems it affected this one too. I'll look into it.

That page error should be fixed now.

Removed the pinned posts from Lounge section, was kind'a sick of it. They are visible at the bottom of all pages anyway.
