This site is hard to find

Postby Dickie2679 » Sat Aug 14, 2004 2:26 pm

I was looking for 'Boxertrix.com' but this brought up nothing, why is the address 'http://cgi.blackbriard.force9.co.uk' it was very hard to find. :(

Dickie,

Sorry about that. We were in the middle of re-organising the web site when Gromit, who owns the URL, had to go up to Edinburgh for the tattoo for a month. Should be sorted come September.

Cheers,

Paul
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

What Paul said :)

I'm on a flying visit home at the moment but I can assure you getting the site re-named/placed/promoted is very high on the priority list when I get back.

My ISP have cocked-up (again!) on the url assignment - boxertrix.com should take you to Paul's very neat header page. I'm after changing ISP's but am loath to do so at the moment as the database (which this stuff runs on) is lodged with them.

Lloyd - been v busy last few days (impending sprog-related stuff) so not had the chance to sit down and spend a few hours trying to get this sorted.

I'm very keen to try and get things moving so once we're on a more 'even keel' I'll get Paul to give me a hand with doing so - he's far more qualified/knowlegable in these matters!!! :)

We now have 'Boxertrix.com' fully working - this is the header page which Paul designed and gives the links to the forum.

Richard/Paul? I know that I am very stupid :oops: but "Boxertrix.com" doesn't find a site? Doesn't affect me as the forum is saved to favorites but it would have been good to direct the Dutch Beemer bikers to the forum easily and I am acquiring the stickers!!

:-) Top site when we get in though - thanks for your efforts!

Huw - Boxertrix.com finds the header page, where it's possible to get to this place by clicking on 'forums'.

The cgi url is simply the webspace which I get with my isp, and where the site is being hosted.

I think the problem arises if you just type 'boxertrix.com' into the address bar. It won't find it (not as famous as microsoft etc) but add www. to the front and bingo you're in.
