Re: [DQSD-Users] dqsd.net webmaster?
I agree 100%. Part of the erason I stopped actively developing public searches for DQSD was that it was near impossible to get changes to the site. I'm not a publicity hound, but I do like to have my efforts published when I devote my time to something like this. The current site is very "early 21st century", so is lacking a lot of features that should be available on most current sites. -Shawn > -Original Message- > From: Brent Beardsley [mailto:brentbeards...@yahoo.com] > Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2010 8:41 AM > To: DQSD users mailing list; tom.corco...@moonbade.com > Subject: Re: [DQSD-Users] dqsd.net webmaster? > > Hi all, > > I think we should just have dqsd.sourceforge.net as the main > page - we can see if Dave will redirect dqsd.net back to > dqsd.sourceforge.net.

Brent, Thanks for doing that, great idea! If Dave agrees to the redirect then this is a big start in the right direction. Tom.

Re: [DQSD-Users] dqsd.net webmaster?
Hi all, I think we should just have dqsd.sourceforge.net as the main page - we can see if Dave will redirect dqsd.net back to dqsd.sourceforge.net. I changed the home page to dqsd.sourceforge.net, uploaded the files in dqsdweb to the htdocs for dqsd project and it seems to work. Note, I have not tried every page and every link - also you'll have to clear your browser cache as the old index page on the dqsd htdocs site redirects to dqsd.net I can easily change it back to the way it was but that way wasn't working and I like the idea of having the dsqdweb files hosted on sourceforge so that all the admins can mess with it and avoid the problems we're currently experiencing.
