TexasCHLforum.com

I'm moving TexasCHLforum.com to a new server on Friday, Oct. 30th at 10:00 pm. The website will be down for approximately 1 hour for the move and updating the software.

If you have a bookmark set to http://www.TexasCHLforum.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; then you don't need to change anything. However, since the forum is currently in a subdirectory on TexasShooting.com, some people have bookmarks for TexasShooting.com/TexasCHL_Forum and those will not work after the website is moved.

Chas.

Thanks Charles! I found my way here through that subdirectory. All is right with the world.

Charles you might consider putting a page with links to http://texaschlForum.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; on "TexasShooting.com/TexasCHL_Forum" just so that people will be able to find their way.

Thanks for the update Charles.

That's what a 301 redirect is for.

I'm a meta refresh man, but the 301 is really the right answer.

Charles:

I encountered a problem in trying to use the new link at http://www.texaschlforum.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I wasn't logged in when I went to that link.

I logged in, and got the acknowledgement that I had logged in with my user name.

However, when that form automatically took me back to the index page, I was no longer logged in.

Nothing I could do would get me logged in, irrespective of the setting of the "log me in on each visit" box.

It works fine when I use http://www.texasshooting.com/TexasCHL_Forum/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Dunno what's up with that.

P.S. - now that I have registered under the old link, I can use the new one.

Computers will make you crazy. I have been programming computers since 1966, so...

What about all the links in posts that point to other topics? Surely there are going to be many thousands of these. Will you be doing a database scrub to rewrite them to the new URL?

Pipe the entire database through sed :P

Once more in English please. I was planning to run a search and replace through phpMyAdmin, but this may be easier.

No offence Charles but ...... How delicously ironic, that an attorney is asking for a translation to plain English ! Those legal papers are the world's worst!
