Requesting forum name change
« on: March 14, 2013, 05:02:31 pm »
I want to change my forum ( http://www.sinzscape.smf2hosting.com) name to www.sscommunity.smffy(or)smfnew.com. I would do it myself, but I can't which some of you may already know because of the thread I posted nearly a month ago;

http://www.support.smfnew.com/index.php?topic=8888.msg47431#msg47431

I hope this can be done.

The control panel is currently the only way to change your forum's URL. Did you read Trax's response?

Hi 101,

You can change your forums name via the control. If you cannot for some reason, can you please explain what is the problem you are facing with it?

Also, tell us if the Control Panel will work for you, because a few users, (Including myself) have reported having problems with the CP.

I never got an email for the control panel. I've tried everything everyone said to me on the thread I posted about a month ago and nothing worked.

You need to contact Todd K for this. Do you use Yahoo?

Hotmail.

I hate to break it to ya, but Hotmail is not the best email provider out there whatsoever. I'd suggest to switch to Gmail or Yahoo, then reattempt to do the steps again. I do not believe an Administrator can fix the problem, unless he or she is the only person able to change the emails. Nonetheless, change the email to a Gmail or Yahoo email, then attempt to change your forum URL. When you've attempted this, let us know if this has or has not worked for you.

Unfortunately, Hotmail has this problem too. :( I would recommend using Gmail to register your new forum and contact Todd to see if he can do something. :)

101, don't give up just yet! :) We are here to help in these issues - it could potentially be a server-side thing, as we've been having server troubles here and there. I'll see if I can get Todd to speak to you about the issue and perhaps we can get to the bottom of this.

Well, they've been working on this for over a year, so...

So you have said over and over... Do comments like this help? No!

At the end of the day we continue to push ahead and we are working on fixes and not just ignoring them, when it comes to free hosting you will always run into problems.

You also miss the point that we all have real life's to live, so yes it will take time.
