Congrats on getting back up and running
« on: May 18, 2014, 12:20:53 AM »
Hi, just wanted to say congrats to Reb and Chris and to whomever else was working to get you back up and running. It shows they can't hold good conservative groups down. We cooperate and overcome their attacks.

Great job, it's been so much fun having everyone back on CU, hope to still see you, but know that you feel better with the shoutbox and being home. Just don't forget to stop by and say hi and visit.

 :cheersmate: :cheersmate: :cheersmate:

Miskie did all the heavy lifting.  He deserves the credit.

Miskie did an awesome job in a very short period of time.   :cheersmate:

It was more detailed then just turning on a switch that is for sure.

Appreciated, both.  :cheersmate:

I've been doing web design and hosting for years as a sideline. - And even though web forums have declined in popularity since the advent of 'Social Media', I do have considerable experience with them ( My hosting business began around them ) including a special 'bag of tricks' I've developed to get heavily damaged forums back online with minimal loss of data. The truth is, people I don't even host come to me for help, and I still do what I can.

So I offered my services without hesitation, and that offer was accepted.

Fixing CC was actually pretty easy.

At this point, I'm down to a few annoying little tidbits - Tapatalk being one of them. Its clashing with something, but I have yet to discover what. Other than that, Its mostly graphics/template issues, such as moving the shoutbox back to the bottom.

Uh, the "shoutbox" was never on the bottom, sir.

It was always on top.

I don't care where it's put, but it was never on the bottom.

Sorry about the confusion, apparently it was on a couple of specific themes, but not all of them. Still, Minor issue.

No, I just pointed that out in case it was relevant.

<<had no idea if it was relevant or not.

For what it is worth, the Cave isn't working on my Tapatalk app.  Not a big concern, just thought I'd mention it.

Its an issue I'm trying to solve now. I have a redundant installation I'm trying to solve the problem with.

Okay, I have to interject something here (nothing to do with the comment by Mr. Wiggum immediately above this one, which is a reasonable comment).

conservativecave is run by volunteers, miskie, Rebel, and Chris_ being chief among them.

Everybody works for a living, usually more than just forty hours a week.

Members should list their problems here, or at

http://www.conservativeunderground.com/forum505/showthread.php?62010-CC-Back-Online

so as to keep the problems all in one (or two) places.

If you're having problems, yes, bring them up; by all means mention them.

But because everybody has other stuff going on in real life, while the problems may be noted, they might not be taken care of right away.  Give our heroic workers time.

I'm satisifed if most problems are eliminated, or at least diminished, by next weekend.

Credit gratefully given.  I'm sure all this mess cost the site some money, Is there a way I (and hopefully others) can contribute to its financial wellbeing?

The previous hosting "service" was part of the problem. Their complete failure to put in any kind of defense against that kind of attack was what happened to begin with, and then they just kicked CC off their server anyway. Rat bastards.

Something like that, anyway.

I think the method to donate has been, and I'd anticipate will be again, via Paypal. That shields the contributor and the recipient.

I figured.  I was hoping to bypass setting up a paypal account.
