Portal - Closed temporarily
Posted: Fri Aug 19, 2011 9:19 am
All,
Our trusty Portal software has finally met it's end. I have been using MX-Publisher for 6+ years on most of my websites, but alas the project has disappeared from the planet, and I see no sign of the developer doing anything more with it in the near future.
This reality, plus the fact MX-Publisher for phpBB3 was specifically designed to NOT work on Windows (IIS7) hosting, I am now forced to abandon this portal for another. Sadly, I did not have the opportunity to evaluate other portals before we were forced off our Linux host onto this IIS box, so the end result is a broken, irreparable portal.
I regret the inconvenience this is going to cause our vast, incredibly active community
but be it known I am working diligently to install a new portal and re-write all our custom modules to work with the new system. This will probably take a while, so please be patient.
First module to "fix" is going to be our Account Management module, so players and admins can still manage their accounts for game-play. I will try and have (some version) running today.
Thanks
