Server Change/Move

Is it possible to move my forum from own0.com to another supported domain or server??? Obviously not by me, but from the stuff....


it is so fustrating being without any help all this months.... (almost a year)

there is no way of moving your forum to another sever, only the pro staffs do it.

Just to clarify, you cant do it yourself, and the staff wont do it for you. Forumotion has a strict rule that involves no access to your forum's running mechanisms or any transferring off Forumotion's servers.

like forumm.biz, darkbb.com etc (see those servers or domains at the creation of a forum!)

ohhh ok.

I actually think that forumotion disabled the changing of that too.

Sorry

I know... That's why I am asking them to do it...

It seems tha the specific domain (or server I cant figure it out) have a problem with the specific forum.

i dont know the reason why this is happening and noone from forumactif or forumotion thinks there is a problem.

But every morning I just have to resubmit my Personalized Domain Name for no obvious reason!!!

This is not happening on any other forum I guess....

Can this Post Be moved to tech support please???

The domain names can be selected from the current list. If you face any problem choosing one of them, provide us details.

I changed it (found how it is done)
But the external domain problem still occurs!

I don't understand the external domain problem? Care to explain more?

I have the external domain www.cosmopeople.biz

I submit it at the Personalized domain name field in the administration.

It validates and works. I type www.cosmopeople.biz and I see the forum.

Next day at 7:00 GMT in the morning I type www.cosmopeople.biz and the forum does not exist.

I enter the forum from its default Domain

I enter the administration panel , go to Personalized domain name and I see it is emty. Forum address has changes (by itself) back to the default address.

I submit again the external domain, it validates again and works. Next day at 7:00 same thing happens. The forum cannot be found through Personalised domain name.

This truely is a weird problem, can you verify that everything is correct by following the tutorial: https://help.forumotion.com/frequently-asked-questions-f5/redirect-an-extern-domain-name-that-you-own-to-your-board-t7021.htm

If the problem still exists after this, then I believe it may be a techies problem.

Can you please clarify if you brought your domain ( cosmopeople.biz) through Forumotion (Thats through your admin panel ), or an external company, such as godaddy please?

Hi!!

I can I ve followed step by step all instructions. But next day from submition it was gone



It was a free domain from forumotion

I bought it when it expired

It was hosted at godaddy.com

I still have it at godaddy.com

I have the problem since then.

thank you

Sp this is re-occurring as I thought it was.

Ill see if we can get one of the support staff to come here shortly and see if they can help out, or try to get Typlo's input, seeing as this is persisting.

I have forwarded the issue to Typlo.

thank you very much

New Clue to this weird case.......... may be the solution

I found that at Misc -> Credits Management -> Spend Credits -> Domain name


It still has form and option for a renewal.

When I press Modify then Renewal It Responds

You have currently 0 credits.

Currently, your forum address is : http://www.cosmopeople.biz
Your domain name expires in : -164 Days

This Should Not be there!



In another forum as soon as I entered a Personilised domain Name it does not present a Renewal Form!!!


I think this would be a setting from inside the forumotion server or administration or something.


Thank You

I just pressed DELETE of the domain name! Hope it does not DELETE THE WHOLE FORUM!
