Seriously, I don't get what the deal is. This happens about once every other month. It's always line 117 where this: <?php }} ?> somehow gets changed to this: <?php } ?> and then the 403 errors begin. I've fixed it - please continue to post / PM me if you see any more errors now or in the future.

That's a very specific problem to have. Only iPhones? We switched servers a few days ago but that's the only change we made....not sure what the issue could be?

For those who like statistics, or have been getting frustrated by the extensive downtime on the site - there is good news! First of all, we switched servers to a significantly more reliable server that has a history of very good uptime, so my hope is that this will not be an issue anymore. Additiona...

Hi all, you may have noticed excessive downtime lately (1097 minutes this month). Because of the unreliable server that we are on, we've been having quite a few issues. We are going to be migrating to a new server with better uptime history and more reliability. This may cause some downtime in the c...

Starting now - please tell me whether you are / are not getting the malware warning when viewing page 43 of the vikings thread. From what I can tell we should be clear of it but wanted to see what everyone else is getting.

NOTE: There is no malware on UrbanMSP.com and users were not at any risk visiting that page! Update - found the issue. I went to the page (page 43 of vikings thread) and found an image that was posted from the website (dallasobserver). Therefore we had the blogs.dallasobserver.com URL in our pages a...

That's definitely an issue.

blogs.dallasobserver.com - Is there content on the forum page from that website? I scanned the site, home directory, FTP, etc....yesterday and the week before for maleware and had nothing pop up.

HKS did a beautiful job with designing the American Airlines Center arena in Dallas with its art deco facade. It's quite authentic and high quality so it doesn't have that artificial look of block E. If they did something like that for our stadium ( i.e. maybe recalling the Armory) , It could be ve...

What if we made a policy where the original poster and a number of the moderators could go through threads such as that one and consolidate some of the information into the original post according to type of template. That seems to be what they do and would be an easy thing to do.

I would love to do something like that. Something along the lines of an update-able original post (or a thread index) that gives information for each thread where to find the important information? Just want to be sure that we are on the same page. Let me know if you can find anything good here that...

Not sure - I didn't think it impacted us as 1. I haven't had issues and 2. Our only downtime has been a couple minutes at a time. If our whole drive was replaced as seems to be the case on whatever server they mentioned I presume we would be having significantly more issues. With that said, I could ...

E-mail from our host: Our data center provider is going to be performing scheduled maintenance, adding an additional backup power generator, and introducing new parallel switchgear, to help improve backup power capabilities in the event of a power outage. While no downtime is anticipated for your se...

Yeah...all good questions. I'm not sure what's going on. I'm not seeing any spikes in bandwidth. We seem to be the only "legit" site on the server sooooooo I have not a clue what the issue is. We're at 97-99% uptime which is relatively low for a website so I'll speak with the hosts and see...

Just thought I would say thank you to everyone who frequents the forum. Today we broke our record and had 177 unique users actively viewing and posting on the forum at the same time (right before 6:00). Come 20,000 posts, I will throw a bunch of statistics your way about where we're ranking on googl...

True dat...I don't want to talk about it. My javascript skills are between "inexperienced" and "series of tubes" so I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to get the good captcha back up and running.

I have fixed this issue five times...must be some module that keeps messing up the code. I'll fix it when I got back from lunch in a bit.

Update: I have switched captcha types for registration. I will continue working on the javascript for the sortables captcha. I'm not sure why it's not working but for the time being new members will be able to register. If it goes down again, I am working on it and it should be back up soon. Please ...

I understand registration issues are occurring and new users are unable to register. I am looking into the issue and it should be resolved by tonight.
