UKSB Winding Down…

Posted by Robert Lambie on November 4, 2013 at 10:38 pm

Yep, many may have already noticed uksignboards.com is beginning to wind down…

Broken Links
Blank Navigation buttons
Missing Pages
Missing Adverts
Missing Forums
Missing UKSG Members Area
Missing connected websites
and it will continue for a few weeks yet…

examples:

Site Shop

But no… we arent going anywhere… we have just switched to yet another New and more powerful dedicated server with a new look uksignboards.com. and associated sign websites and resources.

I wont go into it just now, but all the new benefits will become apparent as soon as possible.

We had planned doing all this at the beginning of this year, but several projects UKSB has invested heavily in, such as UKSG wrap training & accreditation, swallowed up much more of my time than anticipated and i had to give priority there. So i do apologise for any inconvenience caused via our sites, apps, toolbar etc

Whooohh! For a moment I thought you were meaning you were winding down altogether!!!!!!

We can’t have that can we?
Or was the thread just a wind up

Hmmmm! Thread-wind up!

you must have logged on when i "broke the boards" :lol1:
i have broke UKSB twice in 24hrs. 😕 😳

basically, as we prune the site back for transition, ive binned sections that were needed. in turn killed the boards till my web developer could step in and pull me out a hole, twice! :lol1:

anyway… back to the dismantling process. :lol1:

Although I’m not a heavy used of the boards, I’ve not been inconvenienced by any ongoing maintenance at all!!

Looking forward to the new setup and keep up all the hard work Rob.

Thanks
