Hey Everyone,
I just wanted to keep everyone updated on my progress getting the Magazine restored. Sadly
something got corrupted during the migration. After diving in and checking everything out
I was not able to get either app fixed. So we had to create a new wordpress site. Dont
worry though, I salvaged all the data/theme/posts/images/plugins from the old site before
I sent it packing. The good news is that things are coming along with it and I should have
it switched to the main
fedoramagazine.org by tomorrow night. [1] If you want to take a
look at it currently. There are still a few things I have to fix on the backend before it
goes back to production.
Sadly all the local user accounts got deleted, but that really wont make a difference once
the domain gets switched over and the openid login works. I will be creating logins for
myself, suehle, jzb, mitzie, randomuser, nirik, roshi as administrators. I will set a temp
password and the site should email you your info so you can change the password. If I
missed anyone who wants a local account let me know either through a private email at
croberts(a)cintrixhosting.com or ping me on irc (croberts). I have worked with the openshift
team to increase our gears so as increased traffic hits the site it will scale. I also
setup the site so that we can get metrics on traffic from the backend so that we have that
data without the need for plugins to slow the site down. Once this step is completed and
everything is back to normal I am going to work on a app that replicates the magazine so
that way we do not run into this issue again.
