    Double checked on isitdown. Hope all is well with Den Mum's and the House Ogre's server.

    They had a malicious attack not too long ago. Hoping that's not the issue again!

    Sorry for the downtime with no warning. The hubbyogre decided to change our DNS hosting to address some issues, and, well, we're unreachable until the new info is populated everywhere.

    The timing is bad, since I was trying to get the Heroes' Festival article up, and I have the Extra Life game day this weekend, but it is what it is, and should be back up "by tomorrow morning", though I am hoping for sooner!

    I think what we are all finding is exactly how often we refer to your site, Niami. Hope it's all back up again soon.

    DNS seems to have updated and it's back.
  6. AvenElonis Well-Known Member

    Yeah it is back up.

    It's back up, but I can't see the side menu off to the left any more on EQ2 Traders Corner (and yep, my horizontal thumb is all the way to the left; tried reloading the page, didn't help)... :-/

    Even having the title come up when one hovers the cursor over any part of the bar would be cool; right now, all I seem to be getting is something about menstruating -- whoops, sorry, "menustr" (menu string?) and a bunch of URL-type info, but I blush to admit, I hadn't memorized that index yet... :(

    The topmost one, I think it's "About," and it's being cut off by the EQ2 Traders Corner logo thing. :-/

    Plus, the faqjump.php is returning an error page...

    It's working fine here. Try flushing your browser cache and reloading.

    And how does one do that? Never heard of it -- well, that's not true, I have heard of it, vaguely, but don't recall ever doing it before... :-/

    The menu-thing seems to be if you're using "https:" in the URL instead of "http:" This will need a hubbyogre fix, and, well, he's as swamped as I am right now.

    This hasn't been forgotten, but our jobs come first, so it may be a bit.

    Hey, as long as there's a temp-fix, no worries! :D

    We'll be fine. :)

    I am having this problem as well, navigating the site is just clicking the links until I find the one I want lol.

    I was just at the site and it was fine.

    As mentioned above, just change the url from https://eq2.eqtraders.com to http://eq2.eqtraders.com and the navbuttons should be fine. I don't know when the hubbyogre will be able to tweak the https: version.
  16. Uwkete-of-Crushbone Well-Known Member

    Hmm! I'm on Firefox, and even following your URL link without the "s" in https didn't help (it auto-magically, auto-maniacally changed it back from http to https without so much as a by-my-leave)...I blame Firefox at this point. :-/

    You just have to remove the 's' manually and tell Firefox to behave itself.
