    In progress Domain name changed?

    Post by Kestrana September 24th 2019, 4:57 pm

    This morning when I logged into my forum (reverie.forumotion.net), I noticed that my username/password weren't saved. I didn't think anything of it at first, until my browser asked to save the creds and I realized the domain name had changed from forumotion.net to rpg-board.net. There's a redirect in place so that people typing in the forumotion.net URL get redirected to rpg-board.net.

    I skimmed through the boards here (and did a search) and didn't see any kind of announcement about changing the forumotion domain to rpg-board. There are also no announcements in my administration panel. When/why was this change made, and why was there no notification?

    I also had a problem last week with my browser suddenly stopping delivery of several of the Javascripts that I have on my site. It turned out to be an http vs. https change, but I had to manually re-save my Javascripts, even though they showed that they were using https already. It looked a bit like a mass find-and-replace was done to change http to https for files within the site, but then the files were not rebuilt. I assume this was done due to the general industry trend to deliver everything via https, but again, I saw no announcements about the change.

    Those are both very old topics without recent updates.

    On the first one, it looks like the changes were being made for language/region variations in URLs only. No mention is made of forumotion.net addresses being affected. I see rpg-board.net IS listed. However, it's unclear to me whether existing domains (such as mine that WAS on forumotion.net) are being moved TO the domains on the list (i.e, forumotion.net -> rpg-board.net), or if the domains on the list are being moved TO somewhere else (rpg-board.net -> somewhere else).

    The SSL cert thread is about purchasing your own certs, which I did NOT do. There's a comment about "making it free for everyone" - is that what happened?

    Thanks for the response.
