Researching options for starting a fresh site installation
Posted: Fri Jun 14, 2019 6:41 pm
As per http://www.makehumancommunity.org/conte ... tyorg.html, it currenly looks as if the only way forward is to make a new installation of the site software and then try to port data.
Before stating that, I've been researching what the options are.
For now, I can say I'll have to give up any hope that drupal would have come far enough to be able to shoulder both forum and wiki. It hasn't, and miserably so.
I have also considered moving the forum to something hosted by a third part, such as discourse. I remain sceptic about this, although I haven't completely ruled out the option. The main reasons against it are that any such forum provider might suddenly decide the images posted are too explicit and ban us, and that migrating the existing forum content to a such a solution probably would be impossible.
Atm. I'm thinking that pretty much the only option is going for fresh installs of the latest versions of what is in use today, at least drupal (for the asset repo) and phpbb (for the forum).
But I'm going to keep researching a bit before starting any form of implementing. So input is welcome.
