As I'm going to be moving house, biopowered will need to move to a new hosting home. The hosting is ordered, but the time of transition not really scheduled - it's when we can find time to move the databases and filesystem, and switch the domain DNS over. It will take a bit of time, during which there will be limited availability.

I'll keep Pete posted on VOD when this is happening.

How much cash do you need for the hosting Tony?

Since the host swap has been done I have to log in everytime I want to post?

No problem for me.

I'm confused.com, You cannot post if you are not logged in, are you saying you could post without logging in before?

Same with me but I just left click on the log in box and I'm in

Hi Chug,
What seems to happen is when I log in with my user name and password so I can post, the forum seems to remember me for about 24 hours.

After that I can't post without logging in again ( the quote and reply boxes aren't there so it regards me as a non member just viewing the forum)

This didn't happen before the host change. I haven't had to log in since joining until the host change.

Dave ... if you go to the login button on the menu bar, instead of logging in at the top right of each page, there's a check box which says keep me logged in, or something similar, Try checking that and then click login.

I was suffering the same problem so have tried this. Hopefully it will work
As I was logged in at the time, I had to press 'logout' on the menu bar first, then 'login'
When I did, the 'keep me logged in' tickbox was there.

Thanks guys, will try it.

Appears to be a big problem on the wiki.

Just went on the wiki for the first time since the host swap and just about all the photos and graphics don't show and are replaced with this text or similar ...

Quote

Error creating thumbnail: convert.x: unable to open image `/home/sites/biopowered.co.uk/public_html/w/images/d/d0/Leo_XKM60.jpg': No such file or directory @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2702.
convert.x: no images defined `/tmp/transform_285805fed16d-1.jpg' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3252.

Happens in IE 8, Fire fox on two machines and in Sleipnir.

I think I flagged up a similar problem with the forum linking to photos on the wiki.

In addition if you enter www.biopowered.co.uk into the address bar of all three browsers, nothing happens, just a blank page. Other addresses within biopowered seem to work.

Tony ... HEEEELP!

EDIT ... Be helpful if others could confirm is not just my set up that's giving trouble ... knowing me that's more than likely!
