Pictures disappearing.
- Thread starter Telknor
- Start date
On some of the older threads, photos will be gone.
When I first installed this forum 10 years ago, I had the photo upload option enabled. Within a year, the entire site went down due to storage size so I had to remove the function. After that, photos that are linked are from whatever external site the poster uses.
On the latest migration this week (complete do-over actually), the database was not in good shape and the destination host could not handle the size of the content folder. I had to make a quick decision to move or loose everything, so older content did not make it. This also includes the gallery, which was a very broken script.
I am planning to implement a gallery once I have everything here up to date again. It will be like my very original from 2001 (showcase style), where people send me their final project photos and I do a writeup on the build.
