Re: Arena Broke

Post by pennymachines »

Sorry for the late response. Caught a virus - me, not the site, after being bug free for years... :sick:

The Arena software seems to be terminally broken. Restoring database and files from backups didn't help. No idea what's up with it. Can't even access the backend/admin. To get support on it, I'd have to purchase a new version of the software, but I've been meaning to migrate it to a Wordpress membership plugin for years. Just never got around to it, 'cause it's a major project - just to get back to where we were before. Entropy... :#:

Anyway, this has forced the issue, so I'm now engaged in the laborious process of re-coding old HTML and CSS and moving it over to the Wordpress platform. Then I'll move all subscribed members over and extend subs to compensate.

I'll notify all full members when it's done. Thank you for your patience.

Up and running at last. !SMILER!

All existing subscribers reinstated with a couple of months added for lost time.

Thanks arrgee, highfield and dutchboy. For being so gracious, you get three months extra. :lol:

Only a fraction of the pages uploaded so far, but I'll be putting the rest up over the next few days.

Details of the new system here: New Arena
