    Current State of the Wiki

    Current State of the Wiki

    Server and Wiki Upgrades

    For those of you who haven't visited our wiki in a while, you'll notice that it looks much different than it did a short while ago. We are in the process of bringing all items up to date with the latest versions. The authentication link to the main site is offline currently, but you can still log in if you recall your site password when you last logged into the wiki. You will also notice the menu to the left is a bit hard to read, this is only temporary until we find a solution that will work. We will continue the upgrade once we squash the usability issues at the current version level. This will take a while to complete, thank you all for your patience during this time.

    Thanks for the update. I really appreciate your taking your time and effort to fix the Wiki and am glad to hear that it's somewhat operational again. Thanks for all you do!

    Re: Current State of the Wiki

    All, as you can see, there have been many changes over the past few days.


    1. We went secure at P101C (which brings a whole host of additional problems), I am busy chasing errors and bugs. I know things aren't fully functional, but rest assured, they will be.
    2. The wiki was restored back to March - which allows me to utilize the code from before I upgraded. I upgraded because the host changed php versions and broke PCRE in the wiki. I was unable to find a fix, so an upgrade was started.......big fail. I ended up finding a hack to change the code - and it worked allowing me to not have to upgrade.
    3. I am aware that certain page elements do not load or load incorrectly
    4. The link to the wiki (your login) does not function yet. If you know your site username and password you should be able to login directly, like I am doing.


    I will post an update here once I have one.

    Thanks all!

    1. The move to https:// and the resulting error-hunt has been completed.
    2. The site layouts have been corrected as far as I can tell, but I will continue to hunt for bugs.
    3. The forum/wiki login link is still broken, hope to fix soon.


    Please report any bugs you find here.

    Thanks for everyone's patience during this time of horribleness!!

    This looks so good compared to what it was - thank you, Jester!

    Unfortunately, I still cannot click on Forum and reach the main forum page. I get the 500 error that says the page isn't working.

    Yes, that is an issue still - an odd one. I do have that on the list, it's right below fixing the wiki login.
