Server transfer and file uploads

Hi, any idea how long the transfer will take and when we can upload again because, don't mean to sound hasty or anything, but with the new episode recently airing, we would like uploads? Thanks, Solar Dragon ^{(Talk • Contribs.)} 12:31, 5 December 2011 (EST)

I was worried about the new episode too, so I actually purchased some emergency disk space for the server. I've just applied the changes and switched over to a new kernel, so you should now find that uploads are re-enabled. This is a temporary solution to a problem growing by the day, so I'm definitely going to try to move us to the new server ASAP. If you don't mind, could you please contact some of the other staff members and ask that they surrender their email accounts after deleting all personal information from it? Sadly, it doesn't look like we'll be able to offer staff email accounts on the new server. (At least until I figure out a way to override some of the system in a way that doesn't breach security.) Thanks! --Ja ke 16:28, 5 December 2011 (EST)

I can't access my account via web portal (forgot my password - Thunderbird remembers it). I moved it all to a local folder, do you think this will delete it form the account. I doubt there's that much personal info in there but thought I'd check.--Cook879 16:54, 5 December 2011 (EST)

It's asking for a security code and I have no idea what it is... ☆The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)}☆ 17:07, 5 December 2011 (EST)

The security code should be in one of the first emails you received. I may have also posted it in a forum PM. If you still can't find it, just let me kow and I'll manually do it. :) --Ja ke 17:14, 5 December 2011 (EST)

For some reason, the folder I was sure I saved it to has gone. Also, I can't find it on the forum. The Solar Dragon 17:22, 5 December 2011 (EST)

I sent you the code in a PM just now. :) --Ja ke 18:23, 5 December 2011 (EST)

Christmas Logo

Could you please change the logo to this for Christmas? Thanks --Smiley12 16:32, 20 December 2011 (EST)

I've created a work around using Common.css but it looks bad on the new skin. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:49, 20 December 2011 (EST)

I've altered the new skin to prevent Common.css from changing the logo. Seasonal logos will definitely be implemented in the new skin soon. Right now I'm preparing for the server migration, which will occur either tomorrow or Thursday. I expect that the database will only need to be locked for a few hours at most. :) --Ja ke 18:56, 20 December 2011 (EST)

Broken image

Hi Jake, for some reason, the image here is broken. I've tried moving the image which has worked a lot of the time but it did nothing. Do you have any ideas why? Thanks, ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 04:28, 23 December 2011 (EST)

It seems to be a recurring problem. See The Three Stooges and this image's thumbnail. The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 05:07, 23 December 2011 (EST)

Looks like the path to the image thumbnail program has changed on the new server. All thumbs should now generate correctly. :) --Ja ke 07:27, 23 December 2011 (EST)

Piwik

Piwik appears to have totally crashed and hasn't updated all day. Is this a problem you can fix? ☆The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)}☆ 17:10, 23 December 2011 (EST)

Blacklist Wikia

Hi, could you possibly blacklist Wikia so that we never have to deal with another Wikia link here again please? Thanks, ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 18:30, 23 December 2011 (EST)
