Slowly and steadily, I’ve gotten things moved over to the new web hosting provider. I’d love to say that everything went smoothly, but if it did, I would have published a blog entry long before now :( . If you’re ever in the position where you have to move a web site from one hosting provider to another, and someone tells you it’s a really easy thing to do, laugh. laugh really loud. Not only will the laughing make you feel better, but it’ll make the other person think twice before they ever say something so silly again. Seriously, the move went relatively well and the problems experienced were probably due to my own lack of understanding concerning how to move the WordPress database from one provider to another. As this database contains all the information present on the site, it was kind of a crucial thing to have working. Anyway, I’ve got it figured out now, by golly, so can hardly wait to tell the next person how easy it is to do.

So, What’s left to move, or get set up? Not much really, I have to fix a few links that aren’t working correctly. once complete, links on the site won’t look so cryptic. Also, the announcements mailing list is now being run by Mailman, a more popular mailing list management software program. As such, I need to redesign the form to allow new people to subscribe. In the mean time, if you’d like to join our announcements list, drop me an Email.
