Website Update
Posted: Fri Jan 02, 2015 3:43 pm
As all of you know, we had a lot of problems with the website last quarter. It started when the programmer that designed our website six years ago quit the web-hosting company about three months ago. The quality of service declined rapidly after she left. Then we got hacked, forcing us to shut down for several days. For about 48 hours, I thought we had lost everything but they finally found a recent back-up. As you can imagine, I was somewhat "pissed". Plus, right in the middle of this mess Sabrina had a new baby!
A couple weeks ago I moved the website to a new web-hosting company. Everything seems to be fine now, but they've told me the old website was built with outdated software and needs to go. On December 31, I met with our new programmer and I agreed to pay for a major upgrade. We are not going to attempt to fix the old version. We are just going to build a new EPG Website using the latest and greatest software. I have been promised that the new website will have air tight security and it will be "the greatest thing since sliced bread". It will have all the old features and a lot more, including easy to use search capabilities. I will also be able to post weekly video reports to the website.
This Forum is really another website, so it will not change.
I know the website issues were frustrating to many of you. We plan to thoroughly test the new website before we go live, but I am sure there will be a few bugs to work out. With any luck we hope to have this all worked out by the end of January. Thanks for your support.
