Ian that's great, even remembered my password! Can the old site be replicated on here just to refer to?
Hi Bas,Originally Posted by BAS
The site is not ours so I have no access to its database, passwords or backup. I have already created a new database server to copy the data onto IF we could have got the data but that looks less likley by the day so I think its enjoy the next 5 days......
Anyone that knows the old guard that has not made it to this site, maybe you could send them a mail from the old site??
I've already done that for Martin Kift - any others MIA?
Could somebody lend their identity? I'm afraid I wouldn't be happy giving mine as I have moderator access.
Dave, you can use my login. I've sent you a PM with my details.
Excellent work Ian
Okay so the question now is what is the quickest way to download all the good data..........................at the moment I am selecting certain threads and saving the complete page to my PC as .htm files, so you have a sub directory with all the photo's and other gif's that make up that page, just remember that you have to do this for every page on that thread. At least then these pages can be viewed off-line and will allow the pages to be rebuilt on the new forum.....
Any other ideas welcome.........................days are counting down already.
I found some freeware software, so I'll be mirroring the entire site for accsess at my leasure on a 2nd hard drive. Never done this and hope the program works.... but it IS a very large download!
Keep us posted on this Jeff. How much data is there?
