Hi,

What is happening with the CWP forums, that have been more down than up lately?
Almose every day, the website stays "on" for just a few hours, and then goes to a Gateway Timeout error.

This is an issue, since many troubleshoots and issues are related with content here. Also, doesn't looks great doesn't have the main source of community support "offline". ;)

Yup, same here.
They seem more down than up.

if you try to access https://forum.centos-webpanel.com/profile/ (your own profile) the forum never load.
cwp in 2026 is really alive? or we need to find another replacement?

Seemingly, they have disabled access to profiles which reduces the "community" feel as you can't look up other members. More concerning is the SSL content warning when you try to post a message -- you have to click through the SSL warning in order to post.

Yes, I have already reported the problem to José, it is due to an old and no longer updated version of SMF. I suggested to José that he switch to PHPBB, which is much more robust and much better in this regard.

phpBB is good, but SMF 2.1.6 seemed better IMO, but I got out voted for another project. :/

sysadmin.help is finally live.
Feel free to post here & there.
