Board name.

[Andy Dean]

Okay as some of you may know/not know when we set this board up some months ago it was only on a 3 month trial basis. Well the 3 month period was passed sometime ago and we have now purchased the webspace for real and committed ourselves to maintaining the site for the next 2 years.

Along with this the host allows us to obtain a oir own www.co.uk (http://www.co.uk) url, all we have to do is choose.

www.xmembers.co.uk (http://www.xmembers.co.uk) is availabe as far as i am aware, however in the name of democracy, i thought we'd start the debate for the forum/club/association of clubs name for those who may not be happy with the X-Members moniker. If people feel strongly enough about changing and can provide alternative names we can hold a vote to decide.

Discuss...

Andy,

I'm with everyone else on this - just keep the name and we'll hopefully get more involvement/info spread over the Winter months.

Cheers,

Steve

Just an update...

The name has been purchased and we'll be moving sometime in the next couple of months...

Just as soon as i figure out how to backup the MySQL database using the command line :confused: :confused:

Anyone have any clues?

[markymark]

andy try:-

shell> mysqldump --tab=/path/to/some/dir --opt db_name

or

shell> mysqlhotcopy db_name /path/to/some/dir

this should give you a full backup of the Db.

Well if you're reading this you know we've made the move :). I've started submitting the site to search engines too so it should be easier to stumble across.
