We should probably get rid of or somehow archive the project pages though. What prompted me to say something was noticing some errors in my writing on them, it doesn't really look good as an "official" part of the site.
Also, I was just looking at the "development map" and there's no map showing up for me, I don't think I noticed it before.
The site went down today for a little over an hour while the site was moved to new server hardware. I didn't know this was going to happen today, and in the process I had to do some maintenance to clean up some more hard drive space on the server. The site should be up and running like a well-oiled machine now.
Over the next 48 hours the website hosting will be migrating to an updated server platform in preparation for enabling HTTPS. Please let me know if you spot any issues
http://develop.metrolansing.com/forum/ is getting a forbidden message, that was my bookmark. Any way to give that address the same message you had on the home page to point anyone else that may have bookmarked that page here?
The site is now running the latest version of the forum software we have been using all along. We should get some nice updates with this, for example the search should work a lot better now.
A couple notes so far:
You may need to reset your password using the "Forgot password" feature to get access to your account. Please contact me if you need extra help.
All discussion history has been preserved
The "project pages" of the former site are no longer around. Luckily there hadn't been much activity on them recently and they mainly covered projects that had either finished construction or have been in the planning process for many, many years ahem Museum Place
I'm still learning more about the new forum software, such as how to enable rich formatting of posts and tweaks to the styling. Right now it seems the way to format your message is to use either HTML or Markdown. I'm looking for a WYSIWYG editor but I haven't found one yet.
Please comment here or reach out to me through email if you have any issues.
It appears that by default the dates get replaced with the month once the month changes? Hovering over the date shows the more specific time. I'll look to see if this can be changed.

The website update didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped. You may need to use the Forgot Password feature to reset your password.

Thank you, I have now gotten the /forum link fixed. Both /forum and / will now redirect to /discussions.

I just noticed that the mobile view of the site is a lot better now. No need to zoom in and zoom out of the page.
Everything seems to work ok for me.
