Title: Glad to be back!
Post by: bcmiller on November 04, 2025, 10:49:52 PM

Many things were going on behind the scenes to make improvements to the site and to the forum the past few months.  The site has been moved to a new host, and hopefully will be more stable. You will also notice that we are now a secure site (https:/)

We apologize for the delays we experienced, but some technical difficulties and health issues got in the way. As volunteers, we run the forum because we love Camaros, not because we are web experts. We learned more about software and servers and we are happy to be back and hopefully things will be good to go for a long time.

Not sure why, but that folder wasn't there. Fixed.

A great deal of appreciation for the efforts Kurt especially made to get the forum updated and out of the "coffin corner" we were in and (for a time) unable to get out of.  More minor tweaking may be needed, but he's in a position to be able to execute updates now, which, for awhile, we were unable to do at all.  Thanks Kurt!  Rich

I was wondering, was the forum restarted last night for maint? I logged in yesterday and put "forever" to stay logged in.  But this morning I had to re-log in.  Is forever not working? thanks

^^^^^ Yes, I had the same issue.

Post by: KurtS on November 06, 2025, 11:04:44 AM
Not sure what would cause that. The address for some files didn't have the https address. I fixed that and some other minor things. Let's see if it happens again...

It's working now, Kurt. Thanks!

It seems the "unread post" and "update topics" aren't functioning correctly.

I just reset the cookie that the browser uses to login. So you'll have to login again, hopefully that's the last time. Btw, it happened to me too and it also didn't show I was logged in.
We'll see....
