KCRag Forum

I personally would prefer a dark mode, as I want everything dark now, but whatever people want is fine with me. My biggest concern about customizing the theming is how to handle it after the next and all future releases of phpbb, wherein deep structural changes seem to be relatively common, frequent...

There, that's done. Requests to www and forum now just immediately redirect to https://kcrag.com. The DNS update may take a couple hours, but it's done.

Hmm, maybe I'll just make a virtual host entry for www too, that behaves exactly the same as the one I had to set up for forum dot kcrag.

I have been all week but only at work Not the end of the world, but it’s still happening. I would highly appreciate a screenshot of the error you are seeing, along with as much information as you're willing to give about how you try to connect. The URL, especially. If you would feel more comfortabl...

Ah, cool! Well maybe KCP would be willing/able to restore some old features.

I'm not married to any particular aesthetic. As such, dimensions are up to you. I like the look that fills the header horizontally, but that's my own preference, and from the look of it now I clearly have no idea what I'm doing.

Bahua, a question that perhaps you can answer. Remember before the rag when the forum was on KCSkycrapers? At that time there was another side to the site for uploading images. Just wondering, were those all lost somewhere along the way? Sorry I missed this until now. KCPowercat operated the KCS si...

I found a public domain image of the skyline, and cropped it to my delight. Unfortunately, that is where my graphic design prowess ends. I seek now a talented, or at least competent graphic designer or designers to improve this image or make a better one. I would like for the site to have some kind ...

OK, I've reinstated the redirect. Now if you load http://forum.kcrag.com, it'll just redirect to https://kcrag.com.

It has come to my attention that there are still some people trying to use forum.kcrag.com, which hasn't been in use other than as a redirect for kcrag.com, for like ten years. Please don't do this. I couldn't believe there were still some.

If you're getting a warning, I want to know about it. You should not be.

You may notice the URL has an "https:" in it now, instead of an, "http:" which it had for the first.... 13 years of its existence? After getting the forum migrated to new hosting, I figured it would be smart to get with the times and get this thing encrypted. It's working great f...

Apologies for the unannounced downtime. I just updated the forum software to the latest version, and copied the backups to the new server where kcrag will live for the foreseeable future. You may experience some missing content, as the name propagation pixies make their way around the internet. The ...

Behold! Old posts are now accessible! Or at least they are for me. Thankfully all I had to do was muddle through phpbb's convoluted update system.

Turns out it's a chinese attack. I'm working on it.

I saw the shit performance for myself. I've updated the forum to the latest version. I sincerely hope this will fix any further issues.

If you're having issues, and you're not able to IM me, please tweet at me. My handle is in my forum profile.

By the time chrizow brought it to my attention earlier today, performance appeared to be where it should be, so I will need to dive into the logs to see if I can find what went wrong, if anything. In any case, i patched and rebooted the server just now.

I just updated you to the default theme. Unfortunately, the other theme isn't compatible with this version of phpbb. Sorry for the trouble.

Geez, has it always been this fast?

Looks like we're done. Enjoy!
