Domain change
« on: 6 Apr 2017, 18:07 (6 years and 11 months ago) »
This site is switching from tolp2.nl to a new domain: tolp.nl!

Rest assured, you don't need to do anything, apart from just logging in again. Of course, the site will stay the same, and old links will keep working, they'll be correctly redirected.

On Sunday, the 9th of April, the site will be fully configured to the new domain, and tolp2.nl links will start redirecting to tolp.nl. Additionally, we'll fully upgrade to secure (HTTPS) connections, but again, you don't need to do anything, it'll just redirect to HTTPS if you're using HTTP.

The new domain is already working, which means you can test it: https://tolp.nl/forum/. (You won't be logged in, and the forum is currently still configured for tolp2.nl, so it'll quickly send you back there)

If the new domain or HTTPS is not working properly for you, or if you have any questions, please tell me about it!

Oh, and I'm not doing this because the level is taking a long time or because I'm putting a halt to anything (in fact, this solves a problem should we get to a tOLP 3), it's that I think it's a nicer domain without the 2. Years ago, the first true domain I chose was tolp2.tk, because tolp.tk was already taken, and I simply moved to tolp2.nl after that.

First tolp.net16.net, then tolp2.tk, then tolp2.nl, then tolp.nl.

What will the favicon be changed to, then?

Shiny proposed one with Viridian's face in it, which I guess would work. It'll probably take getting used to, though! Would be nice if we could somehow make something that is similar, but there's nothing to emphasize... Unless we feature Vermilion (which doesn't really make that much sense), or just change the 2 into a red rectangle. But getting used to a completely new icon is probably not too bad.

There's no need to rush to get a new icon finished before the switch, either.

Nothing could go wrong with that.

Why not Viridian and Vermilion?

actually no you cant lol

it'd be too hard to see for people (like me) who dont have a custom theme on their browser (who actually cares enough to do that btw) where the default tab color is white

How about we don't change the icon at all and keep the old one?

We shouldn’t because then the icon would mismatch with the name.

And obviously we need one.

Then it’ll appear boring and bland, which means then there’d be no point of having one.
