Yep, I probably bugged Tim more than I should have but he was excellent and the support was the main reason we stuck with them. Such a shame he "sold out" to these guys.

Yeah, so the "missing" hour will be on the old server but my question is, is it reasonable for them to have lost an hour of posts? Is that how long it'd have taken to do a final resync of the database? Or could they have migrated everything then done a final update in minutes (which was my...

Well they randomly migrated my server this evening without telling me, despite me asking all week for an update and a schedule. Before I complain at them too much, I'd like to get a little adice (@MattW, @Slavik?). We're a football forum. They randomly migrated us during a match which is about...

Doh! They keep assuring me it’ll be seamless and no need to test and it’s just a “button click” but I’m not confident.

What did they do?

Yeah, I’m really hoping Dom sorts it out as he at least sounds like he knows what he’s doing, even if he’s over-worked and backlogged. What specifically did they mess up for you? Might help me to know!

I'm growing increasingly concerned... I've always had something go wrong when Nimbus have migrated my servers, even with Tim watching over them, so I asked their support team to do the current migration for me. Had it scheduled in for over a month to happen last week. Got a message on the day...

Its just a XF page. There's nothing that does anything regarding being logged in. My guess is that you're logging into the forums at say https://www.yourdomain.com but then you have the portal at https://yourdomain.com (and hence no cookie is set for the non-www domain). That shouldn't be...

Why would it be? It basically uses the built in page system and optional widgets.

Which is the "main" one? That one that annoys all the UK uses as it uses American spelling?

You can duplicate widgets and give them different settings. Depending on the widget I'm not sure how well it'll work but we've done similar before.
