I was gone for 2 days and, of course, that is when Bluehost decided I needed to renew the hosting contract. For some reason, the domain has longer than the hosting contract although both were updated together, I thought.
Well, they could not give me a good enough deal, so I paid for a one month extension and will be moving all my content to a new host. Most of you will not notice a change ... helpfully. This will happen in the next month.

Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not after you.
I think I am funnier than I really am.

Re: Site outage
I suppose having various levels of paid membership is off the table? Other forums I've participated in had gold and silver memberships, both with varying levels of privileges.

Re: Site outage
Out of curiosity, what amount of disk space and bandwidth does Mennonet use? I have several bare metal servers that are not running close to capacity...

Re: Site outage
Very little. This is why I will not pay the price Bluehost wants. Web pages without a lot of images take very little bandwidth. Storage is not big since it is just a simple database with SQL calls.electro-wiz wrote: ↑Mon Apr 11, 2022 7:21 pm Out of curiosity, what amount of disk space and bandwidth does Mennonet use?

Re: Site outage
Less then 10 GB for sure.
The issue is directing the domain. Have you done that before?
Would need to have PHP 7 installed too along with a MySQL database.
