Site Back Up and Running

Well, so much for that long previous post lol.

Transition was extremely smooth and quick, so quick that the site now looks exactly the same as before.

The only unfortunate things is that it seems I’ve lost a few comments here and there so I’ll see what I can do.

Thanks for sticking around, next chapter on Sunday as usual.

Site Update (Hopefully the last in a while)

Hey Everyone,

Thought I’d post a longer update for this since there’s a bit of stuff involved.

So most of you know that I got myself a proper site about 2 months back and moved out of my free wordpress site. Unfortunately, being very tired at the time and not really thinking about it, I basically just upgraded my site on wordpress.com.

Some of you have probably realised what my mistake was, but basically wordpress.com still limits a lot of what I can do. What I should have done is buy a domain on wordpress.org and then get the domain hosted somewhere else.

60 days have passed since I first got the silenttranslations.com domain and it can now be unlocked for transfer, so I plan to migrate hosting to Bluehost over the next few days. Ideally there shouldn’t be any issues, but this move may result in my site going down for about a week or so. Unlike the last move, you probably shouldn’t need to do things like resubscribe, I’m just moving files around and gaining the ability to use plugins, which was the whole point of upgrading to a paid site.

This post is a heads up that I will start the site transfer tomorrow which might take my site down for a week, hopefully shorter. I plan this to be the last major move I have to do for the site in…ever?

Thanks in advance for your patience.

From an engineer who should have read the manual before signing up for a website.

 

Temporary Chapter Outage

Just a quick FYI.

Old chapters will go down for a bit as I re-import them from the old site with comments.
This should only take an hour or so.

EDIT: Chapters and comments have been restored and should be all good to go again.

Legend Chapter 249

Here’s Chapter 249,

First chapter on the new site.
After some fiddling around, I’ve managed to port over all the old posts and comments, only for posts though.
Chapter pages will take a bit more fiddling around.

Shout out to Tony on Novel Updates who updated all the chapter links for me.
This chapter should automatically pop up on NU when it releases, but if it doesn’t, it should be up within a few hours.

New Site

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to the new site, which for all intents and purposes is just the old site with a different theme……
But hey, I have access to JS and CSS now, woooo~
Only pages have been copied across, not posts, because fixing all the links on that isn’t something I really want to do, but that shouldn’t affect too much for the most part.
Leave any comments regarding site layout and design if you have any opinions and I’ll see what I can do.

Moving Site

Hey Everyone,

As mentioned in my previous post, I will be moving all my translations to a new site, silenttranslations.com.

The original plan was to have it all up and running by next week, but after several hours of mindless copy pasting, the new site is now up and running.

This is post will likely be the last post on this site for the foreseeable future unless something goes terribly wrong as I tweak the settings on the new site.

I will be getting Novel Updates staff to start moving links, so see you all around on the new site.

Legend Chapter 248

Here’s Chapter 248,

Just a quick bit of news.
This chapter will be the last chapter of Legend I post on silenttl and on MBC.

No, I’m not stopping translations ahahaha.
I’ve decided to set up a non-free wordpress site so that I have a bit more control and flexibility over my own site.
As a result, everything will be moving to silenttranslations.com starting from next week.

Site is not live yet as I’m still in the middle of copying chapters over, but should be up and running by next week’s release.

Thought I’d just let you all know in advance.
