I am going to buy ultraBB this week.  I need to know what I have to do to secure the board and all the customizations I have done.  I will be moving the board to a host as soon as I buy the board.  Do I need to back up or do anything in order to do this.

Will I be able to get help transferring the board.  I have never done this before.

Thank you,

Danny

Hi Danny,

Help is Jim's middle name. :)

Just make sure to tell him that you want to keep your trial board when you buy UltraBB, and he will do it all for you.

regards,

Martin.

I just looked at your board, you certainly have done a lot of work to it!

Not a problem keeping all the changes.

And thank you Martin :)

I'll set it up for you no problem. Do you already have an entry page designed or should I throw something generic in until you get it designed?

I have created a web page that will direct people to the board if that is what you mean.  The web site is http://www.thebooksjourney.com.

If that is not what you mean will you mind explaining what an entry page is.  Thank you for the offer and I greatly appreciate the support

Oh sorry I also meant to ask you,  how much to use you guys as a host?  At present I am being hosted at Gator.  Twice now they got some kind of virus that wiped out my board..  I saw my board up and running a few days ago but have not logged on in several months.  So I know it was from me.

:?

Peace Love and Hugs

Danny

Hi Danny,

Our hosting packages can be found here

At last check, that virus has now morphed to a "C" variant. You can read all about it here

We recommend that you change your FTP password immediately and when you log into your FTP, do NOT save the password!

Jim can give you more information on the virus when he comes on later this afternoon as well as answer your previous question :)

Hi Danny,

Your trial expired in the middle of June last year. I'm sorry we simply cannot keep backups that long.

The virus is pretty common, we figured out real quickly here how to deal with it and what was causing it. We would be glad to have you on board, let us know when you want to move-

Jim

You wouldn't regret a hosting move to Jim. I have had "others" host different sites that I have had, and none come close to DATA1. Downtime is a thing of the past and if you need something, Jim is on it as quick as you can hit "Post Reply" :):)

I am so sorry, are you sure they don't have a backup? Seems like a company that large would have some sort of backup plan.

When you are ready to start another come on over please. It slows the server down a little during the backup but all our servers are backed up daily, weekly and monthly.... some people come here for that fact alone.
