explorer.feathercoin.com update…
Massive thanks to Wellenreiter for getting the explorer site ready for us again, I hoping that we can get the server up and running this week and everything ready to switch over the DNS entry before the weekend…
UM
-
I’ll be available until tomorrow evening only :(
After that I’ll be online some short times in the evening only
The latest code is on github: https://github.com/wellenreiter01/ftc-abe/

Look better.

need speak wrapper… almost ready to go on the forum move!

Forum needs a footer, I can take a look at that before we go live.

It must be all about your backend, then. Really whats with it? Im on Dreamhost for $10/month.Unlimited bandwidth and server space.Using shared but dedicated servers available for even more.Im over 13GB used with all of my ISOs and wikis right now.DNS can be ported but it takes a few hours to propigate.If you switched to DH be aware the site might go down during the switch.Any real outages are handled with 24 hours of reporting them. Most of the time its because of poor SPAM filtering or setup.
WP can handle all of what you mentioned. Ive already mentioned this in another post. I hope the admins are paying atention.If Im not mistaken, WP has forum, there is bbpress, and many other free options for forums. Users may have to re-register. I dunno how the database backend handles things. I tap diectly into mysql and thats about it.Even friendica(thought it scales poorly, is not designed for masses) is setup without a hitch.
SPAM and the website and forum are all handled by WP(or they should be). I have excellent spam (and speed) controls in place myself on another WP site that I personally run.You can stop bots and DDOS as well all in a single move.I can get you a plugin list if you like. I havent update the site in some time.You should be able to add a forum just off of the main WP site, just like running a blog section.Shouldnt need an elaborate setup. I see lots of huff and puff but no action. Is the test site linked somewhere?
I too would like to see some code. CLEAN code, not someone else’s leftovers, from ANY coin. We are NEOScrypt and should reflect that. All I see are Scrypt and SHA256 leftovers from the Bitcoin project.

@shadowhh32 thanks for your offer of help there!

You can’t use WordPress plugins in IPboard. It’s a totally different software package with totally different plugins.
NodeBB is far superior to any of the WordPress forums you have mentioned. BBpress is terrible.
I’ve tested the latest version’s of
SMforum
BBpress with Buddypress
PHPBB
Vanilla Forum
DiscourseDiscourse is great, but NodeBB has the edge.

Can you take a look at this on the test site? I have solved the SSL issue I was having now, so would like if possible to do the change over 1 night this week :)
-
Sure

Could you possibly rephrase that please. Maybe try. “Thanks guys, is there a link available to the test site? I’d love to see a sneak preview”

Massive amount of back ground work going on to prepare things for the transfer to the new forum…
Just deleted a load of spam accounts from the system check the registered user count… it was 25740 before I started
-
Well we almost moved over to the new forum last night… but during the final round of testing we discovered that all user PM’s where not imported!
So I have a DBA working on the script as I type hopefully to be able to solve the issue we have and get those pesky messages imported so fingers are crossed

PM Import issue is now resolved 48hrs later :- what a pile of work that was!
PM’s are imported and show up as conversations under the “chat” section of the new forum, but due to the 1 to many relationship capabilities of IPBoard some of them are imported as coming to you from you, but the most important thing is that all of the information stored in PMs is there for you to be able to find should you want to
Still pluggin away but hopefully we will be able to get the new software live some time this week

Right guys and gals…
We have a cut over date for the new forum!!! yep you heard it right we will be cutting over to the new software on Thursday 23rd July 2015! we will be taking the forum off-line at around 17:00 GMT to perform the switch over and hope to have things all back up and running by 22:00. There is a lot of work that needs to be done in order to get things switched over due to the change in database model required and we know there are going to be a few issues but with your help they can all be fixed quite quickly. So wish us luck and we look forward to seeing you on the other side.

Obviously we have moved to the new forum which is cool. Im not sure Im a fan but its growing on me. :)
I very much like knowing there is at least a ‘to-do’ list but after 6 months I think we could use an update on it. This is yet another time I wish I was a dev or a programmer of some sort as I would tackle some of this.
Is there a donation address available to help some of these projects along?
-
@AmDD your right I must get around to updating things a little as it’s been a long time since we had this too do list and a lot of things have progressed.
I’m having a really busy time in RL but will try and get something out this week for people to take a look at, I will also try and put a donation address up as feathercoin infrastructure is costing around $40 a month to keep running!
