After forum, your admin working on moving forum pages to private host too...
Unfortunately, it will not easy as wiki part since SF make some changes on it... I make some improvement but stuck on disabled user login...
Trying to solve... I wish I am soon...
If any "member" understand from mysqldb & phpBB, I can send the phpBB backup of forum.)
Edit: Ah, I got a python script now that downloads phpBB attachments from sourceforge servers.

Edit: I started to deploy
online test server. You can look, but can't log in yet...

Okey it's almost ready, as you can see at our test forum at
http://forum.samygo.tv
Now I could recover and re-configure whole forum from SF with attachments too.
I don't know how if power of server enough to feed both forum and wiki. If not, I will upgrade HW too.
I am thinking of the authentication mechanism. It's good to have one username and pass for both wiki and forum. Than I open it.
Now just checking it, also working on SSL certs. And I needed research on mods of phpBB too like piwik tracking, tapatalk(I remember such a thing asked before)...
It's possible to make share phpBB and wiki one db but some other enhancements like "portal" doesn't compatible with this. It's better to make LDAP service for that too. Or I could postpone that later, at opening of the Portal, if it will...
So I planning to move new server after a point, probably this week or the next. If you cannot post here, that means I disabled this forum and ported all forum to new server...
Unfortunately there is no re-direction possible.
Just wanted to make you aware from that.

[WIKI PAGES}
Hi erdem_ua
i see that the several links in the Wiki pages refers to the old forum pages. I guess that the change its easy, just replace "sf.net/apps/phpbb/samygo" by "forum.samygo.tv". All links that i try works fine.
Thx

I needed to search running, if they are not much, than I can fix it by hand. Otherwise I needed to put some SQL magic.

I wish you like the speed of new host

Thanks for informing. I will look it now...
Edit: Now I think I fixed all. Thanks.
Edit2: Also enabled avatars. Unfortunately old ones not working properly. Just re-upload them...
Edit3: And now, Gzip compression enabled on our forum. Result is, unbelievable. Forum works like if it has 2 wings...I cant believe my eyes. It's flying.

Edit4: Moved old forum attachments to new forum.
Edit5: Fixed links that points old forum pages and wiki pages...
