Guys, if and when you move a post over to the new, be sure to go over to the tag and type it in it as moved.

It'll help everyone quickly visualize what has already been moved. Thanks, Mark and Carl.

Joined....Looks good

How long will this site stay up? Will there be a re-direct once it's down?

 Likely until the end of January. There will not be a redirect however www.canadianponcho.ca or .com should take you to the new forum.

A friend of my son's is a high end AI programmer and he explained what we wanted to do. Apparently the going rate to copy forum posts and move them to the new one is several thousand dollars.
I'm working on a couple of other possible solutions. I'll keep you posted. In the meantime we are moving what we can. It's the photos that are the most time consuming (those that were uploaded here) as they need to be saved locally then reuploaded to the new forum.

 Without a doubt it will be a few thousand dollars but it would be nice to ask the new host of our site for an exact number, then we know.  I don't know how many members on this site but even if you counted on 50% to contribute the amount per person is likely well under $100.  As a one time expense to retain all the valuable information on here it's a bargain in my opinion.

Be sure to tag the post as "moving" when you are working on it.

Then "moved" when its done.

 

Avoids all of us from working on something in progress, or already moved.

 So in your profile under user settings you can't get to this area? Or it just won't let you change the time zone there?

Harry, I checked your profile and it showed you hadn't verified your email. I pushed your status up to a registered member so you should be good to go.

Is there anyone else who registered but can't post?

A small suggestion from me would be to not have any of the moderator-only posts show up when you click on "new topics" (which I am using like "Recent Posts").  I have clicked on them a few times (and was appropriately denied access) because I didn't notice right away that they were in the General Moderator Forum.  I'm not sure if it's possible to do this on the new forum, but on the old one the moderator post topics don't show up for me when I use Recent Posts to see what's going on on the board.

 One thing to note is that non-moderators can only change the tag if they created the thread, and go into edit mode on the first post of the thread.  So if a regular member is moving a thread that somebody else started, you won't be able to tag it moved.

Good point. If someone moves a thread over and can't tag it here just let one of us know or maybe just post in that thread here something like "MOVED IT" so we can tag it.

Thanks!

 Thanks for the heads up Mark. I'll see if I can find the setting to do that.

This seems to be a common hiccup. Hopefully Todd will or has seen this because he can override it and get you guys setup.

 You betcha but it's pretty basic (unless you don't get the confirmation email like the two guys above as well as a few others) But Todd can fix that if you don't get it.
