    @Duluth I know a guy who reckons the internet is the worst thing to ever happen to mankind.
    I now see his point.

            Yeah the proxy at my work is doing some slightly odd things, gives me a warning that I click continue on, then works OK after that but if I try to up-vote anything it gives me a denied message so doesn't like that part of it at all. I'm not sure I can come up with a strong enough business case for them to allow it all, but as Kirwan says the old URL will return at some point.

            I assumed it was some sort of domain licensing issue at the time, was googling "silverfern forum" periodically to see if something new had been set up, but ended up seeing the email in my junk and got in from there before google started returning the new URL in results.

                  Try again. Refresh first

                  I just removed a typo in a config file and restarted

                    @Duluth thanks, but the denied message is from our proxy server so don't think it's anything you can fix. I refreshed and tried again and same error

                          Mobile now working OK 100% for me on Android.

                          Had a problem yesterday on Mobile access when adding an Android "app" to the home screen - brought up my profile page whatever URL I used. Now fixed.

                            Just to update on this, it's all come right now, no warning and can upvote fine. Assume it is now a trusted domain or something 🙂

                              The re-directing email I got suggested that the old links would be re-instated. Will this still be the case?

                                We'll be able to get old links forwarding to the new url. So old links to specific threads etc will resolve.. but I don't think it's possible to have the forum work on both urls

                                That's a while away yet. There's still no update on the old url. There's a support ticket but I haven't heard an update

                                Just assume silverfern.rugby will be the primary url from now on. We'll fix what we can when we get access

                                        huh. been googling it most days and just found it now.
                                        how long was it down for?

                                        Three days? Something like that.

                                        Well it was up if you knew the IP Address

                                        Felt like a lot longer than that....

                                          No update on the original url

                                          Skimming through the stats it looks like traffic and posting is about 2/3 what it was before the url chaos. Hard to know for sure because there hasn't been a AB Test and we have a bunch of people who are only active around AB Tests

                                          So hopefully a few more stragglers turn up this week

                                          Google results are slowly improving. The more posts we have in rugby threads the quicker that will improve
