After I sent an email, I got a delivery error message back above, and I don't know what it means. Normally, I would look up the error code, but I don't see one here. I was wondering if his is a "receiving" error on their end, or a "sending" error on my end. If it's on their end, then I don't really care. But if it's on my end, then I do. Admittedly, the email address I was sending it to was an old business contact, which I wouldn't be surprised if it was dead email by now.

A Few Questions About Your Service

Do you run all your sites off of a single shared hosting account here? What kind of "visitors/page views/bandwidth" do you use monthly? -
A Few Questions About Your Service
stocktrader replied to bluemartian's topic in Pre-Sales Enquiries
One of the problems with plugins and themes is not that the user is not keeping them up-to-date, it is because the original coder who issued the plugin does not issue updates to offer secure versions .From a security standpoint, there is a large concentration on keeping script up-to-date, but I think there should be a greater recognition among the webmaster community about the security risk in using "aged code", which hasn't been updated in 5 years. Side question (for Mike or anyone else). Is there a reason why a XenForo forum (in general) would not be supported? Isn't it just a regular forum built on PHP/MySQL, or is there more to the requirements than that? -
On Dec 2th, I received the email letting me know that you guys were updated the servers ("MDDHosting - Big Upgrades - New Hardware, New Network, More Reliability"). It said that I would be receiving another email right before, and after, the upgrades, just letting me know they were being started/finished. But I never received those emails. Were the upgrades done (I am on Demeter). I'm not complaining - just wondering. thanks

My incoming email wasn't working for a while. I was playing around with the email settings in cPanel, and noticed my "MX Entry" settings were set to "Automatically Detect Configuration" (which is recommended), and I switched it to "Local Mail Exchanger". And now it is working. I also had "MX Records" (for priority and destination) were: 10 - scanner01.mail.supportedns.com 20 - scanner02.mail.supportedns.com I was wondering if these settings are OK, and if the old settings were wrong? thanks

Ever since the upgrade to the new Demeter server, I have had a delay on any outgoing email. Here are the details: * It is only outgoing mail. * It is only using IMAP with Thunderbird. * The delay is EXACTLY 20 seconds. I found this odd. I have tested it about 20 times over the course of 2 weeks. I don't know much about email records (SPF, or MX) and I don't know if they make a difference...but I don't think I have any SPF records, and my MX records with settings of "10" and "20".

changing add-on domain routing
stocktrader replied to stocktrader's topic in Premium Hosting Support
What about password-protected directories that I renamed? It appears that CPanel was smart enough to keep them protected, but I noticed that the protected directories have htaccess files in them that have the old path coded in them when the directories were initially protected. Is this code just incidental? -
changing add-on domain routing
stocktrader replied to stocktrader's topic in Premium Hosting Support
You mean if I hardcoded an absolute path in a random script somewhere? -
If I change the name of the folder that acts as the document root of an add-on domain, is this going to break any scripts (because the path changes, etc)?
-
That's so true. Having 24/7 support from a typical hosting company is like having a diner right down the street from your house that is open 24 hours, but has really sh*tty food.

Is there a way to make MySQL automatically spellcheck when you are editing a text field? I remember it used to do this, but after a recent upgrade it doesn't do it anymore.

Please review my website!
stocktrader replied to Soulwatcher's topic in Website Reviews - Get feedback and free traffic
The "downriver Michigan" niche was never a particularly easy one to monetize. -
It would usually be for a full day, but I'm not sure if that is still long enough to get hit with SEO penalties and Google deletions. I will probably try the "Forward all IP addresses except my own" option.

From an analytics standpoint, I was wondering how the new MDD design compares to the old design when it comes to sales conversions (conversion per visitor, conversions per page view, etc)?
-
Since we are on the subject, is there a way to forward all traffic to the home page while still having an admin have access to the site? I ask this because there are times where I need to work on my site while it's live but I don't want visitors viewing the site. I know I could password protect pages, but I would want SEO visitors who are coming to a random page being hit with a password prompt.
