Website move

[El Gordo]

Open again, self-evidently.

Here's the plan, arrived at after talking to vbulletin and the two hosting companies:

First step is to upgrade the forum to the new version of the software. Presuming this is successful, it may look a bit different but should function as normal.

Second step is to move the whole thing over to the new server. This may be trickier as the database is too big just to download from A and upload to B. So I need some co-operation from the hosting companies which may take a while to secure.

Schedule? I'll choose a moment either Friday evening or Saturday daytime when there's no one on the forum, then I'll shut it down to do the upgrade. All being well, should be down only for a couple of hours max.

The move to the new server is unlikely to happen before next week. When it does, the new URL should be http://www.runningcommentary.net/forum rather than .co.uk.
