Hi

When will the sites be switched over from the old servers to the new serves. My understanding is this will be done for the PA server sites.

I believe I fall in that category.

Im still updating my site so I wonder if the new changes I made to my site just a little while ago will show up on the new server. :confused:

Maybe im switched over already...I dont know....im just a little confused about what the next steps are.

I have a MYSQL database for my forums I need moved over too.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

It depends on how you are doing your updates. Are you connecting via ftp to the ip address or the name?

The new server's ip address is 66.96.228.157

Please use the chat feature on our website when you are available to shut down your forums so we can move them for you.

I am using the domain name to log in...not the old ip address so I guess I am ok.

When I am able to shut down the forums I will let you know...but I what about the new posts and sign ups that happen between now and the time we momentarily shut it down...will that data still be retained??

Thanks

Yes. Right now, your forums are working off of the database on the old server. When we shut down, I will backup the database on the old server and restore it to the new one.
