Site updates as of July 1st, 2021

YouTube · Unread post by **K4sum1** » 01 Jul 2021, 05:14

The main page was updated with a newer, better looking release. It's almost done, but I'm not ready to put the full page up.

All of the board themes should have the standard logo or a variation of it now.

DVGFX theme was made public to use. (again)

ABBC3 custom BBCode bar has been re-enabled to make the BBCode bar look cleaner.

I have changed the current smiles to versions that work better with dark themes.

I'm now making the Board32X replacement public knowledge, go over to https://board2.eclipse.cx if interested. (It has 100% less Kouto, and 100% less self-nukes without a reason.)

If I have done this correctly, the current Eclipse logos on this forum should show up without any user interaction, but if not, hold shift and click reload.

More smiles may come soon, but I know it will probably be a while before I add anymore if it took me this long to just replace them with ones that work better on dark themes.

So, I kinda lied there, but I need to give the smiley system some polish soon, but I'm sleepy rn.

I guess the name wasn't often said here, but it was this.

https://board2.eclipse.cx is my replication of it using the software it once used.

Fixed the redirect to board.eclipse.cx. Now any forum.eclipse.cx path redirects to board.eclipse.cx while keeping the path.

For example, https://forum.eclipse.cx/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=299 works now.

Probably not the right place to post this, so feel free to relocate if necessary

...

board.eclipse.cx

The site's certificate expired some hours ago:

; currently an exception has been set in r3dfox so I could post this; probably the site's admin is already aware

, but thought I would also post about it... Thanks in advance!

Yep, I noticed the same this morning also.
In Chrome (sorry, to each their own but Chrome fits my needs 1,234,567,890% better than Mozilla-based, "is what it is"), where was I?, in Chrome, I learned of a new trick == "thisisunsafe".

And no, don't shoot the messenger. I know the risks!

Yes, I've noticed that too. Thanks for the report, a PM has been sent to K4sum1.

Also ... I can only get to this forum with mypal68 as of today but this was certainly not the case yesterday as I used (both) Hydra and Lun3r.

EDIT: I just noticed that I can get to this site with http but not https on Lun3r and Hydra

Because http doesn't use a certificate

Now it's fixed, the certificate has been updated for 3 months:

Ok so I have a crontab set up to (attempt) to renew the certificates every 7 days. Except I guess it never ran because they were expired, and I have no idea why.

What's weirder is my other crontabs for restarting httpd and to renew the email server certificate seem to have run fine, so I have no idea why or how this happened.
