Hello all,

On July 19th I posted on this forum that we were doing an emergency move to a new hosting company because the previous one was no longer responsive and I feared we could lose the entire site if action wasn't taken immediately.  

I started the backup and migration around 6AM mountain time on the 19th and everything that was created on the old host between then and around 5PM today was lost as it took a very long time to compress, download, upload, uncompress and reconfigure a 150GB website.

I have poked around the site a bit and everything seems to be working normal.  If you see anything that looks incorrect or if you get an error while using the site please let me know and if possible send me a screen capture of it.

Thank you for your patience!

Craig

How in the hell is this site 150GB?

Lots of discussion about touch-and-goes and LOP vs ROP.  ;)

I suspect you meant July 19? So up to ~36 hours of data was lost, not an entire month?

95% of the data is image uploads and other files (PDFs, etc)
