NT BACK UP SITE

the above back up site is on ANOTHER WEBSITE

this is deliberate

if this site suffers some kind of hacking/ calamity/ failure then we have the backup site

the back up was made at the time that we moved on to phpBB3, so it is already getting out of date

HOWEVER

just as a test, I UPGRADED that site to 3.0.1 today

this site (http://www.nationaltraffic.co.uk) is still at 3.0.0. so now the question is, did the upgrade to 3.0.1 at the backup site cause any damage? I'm serious! Sometimes an upgrade can DAMAGE a site because it didn't go right - the only way to tell is to painstakingly LOOK at all areas of the upgraded site to FIND OUT

can anybody assist me to review the upgraded back up site and comment?

[Tricky]

Had a quick look and everything seems to work on submerged

[TheWanderer]

Just been on to check it and everything seems to be fine. Good old contingency planning!

NT BACK UP SITE

the above back up site is on ANOTHER WEBSITE and has just been upgraded to 3.0.5

the site is of a very basic operation and contains some 2 years of topics only

[falkor]

has anybody looked at this back up site?

is it worth having?

[BravoGolfCharlie1988]

I can't log into it!

[slabber]

Probably because you weren't a member back then, will it let you register?

[BravoGolfCharlie1988]

Ahha. Registered and logged in

Good idea having another site ready to go, just incase.

THERE ARE A FURTHER TWO BACK UP SITES TO THE ONE SHOWN ABOVE

2. 2007- 2008 http://www.nationaltraffic.co.uk/phpBB2/2010index.php (the old phpBB2)

[Nighthawk]

I'll just go with the flow matey!
