We're trying out a new emergency forum setup in which everyone still could log into the alternate forum but with read-only permissions. We've had this duplicate forum in place in Canada for quite a while, but I wanted to get a few more people trying it out to be sure I haven't missed something obvious. If you can actually post or change anything, please let me know. You cannot hurt the new forum so log in with your usual credentials and hack away. It's merely a backup of the existing site as of 4:00 p.m. EDT today.

Didn't get it. I'm think that maybe we should leave PM turned on just so folks could communicate. What do you think?

In an actual server crash, we could of course allow posting and make the alternate site the primary site.

wardmundy; I'm back now and I see the same as lgaetz in that I can Log in and see the posts, I cannot reply in threads or start new ones. As for PMs I cannot start new either but do see the reply box to conversations already there. I did not try to reply to any as they are quite old (remember ISN [ I never could get that to work]. But I do have an idea for a module/feature for those that have ISNs of their own.)

The Emergency site is a great idea.

(You have insufficient privileges to reply here.) on all forums or replies. Did update a note to Lorne about whocalled.us in conversations.

No button for new posts here. No new PMs. Can reply to existing PMs. So basically seconding what's above.

Forum data is not current with live forum. How often do you sync it?

kenn10: Working through that now. This is mostly intended as a disaster recovery site. Keeping it off line, we can sync regularly. Changing to a read-only site (which XenForo doesn't currently support by just flipping a switch) takes a good bit of manual effort unless we can decode their MySQL code.
