@Madchatthew I’d always post for the reasons I stated above. It’s useful information and could save someone else the headache.

@jac What other interests do you have ?
Aside from Football and IT, I’d possibly do something like a blog & forum on Stockport really. Events etc etc.
-
@jac or believe it or not a church forum I do go to church now and again
-
@jac Both of these are valid topics, and certainly worthwhile perusing.

possibly yes, the issue would probably be as always there’s always plenty of other sites doing the same thing

Yes, but then we go back to the same ethos of providing information or a service that the others aren’t

Very true Mark, I’d have no idea how I’d achieve any of this!
I’ve been that used to creating County sites/ football sites. That may be the best effort realistically to create a football based site where users write content on their club so you have a Arsenal fan who is classed as ‘Arsenal correspondent’ delivering match reports & news when possible.

@jac Yes, make it club agnostic - that way, it appeals to a far wider audience.

Absolutely! Still of course a massive task but one I could do

.I would unfortunately still look to close down the County forum.

Ok
I’d be probably looking to see if the above is possible with Ghost either that or do a different idea like suggested.

Ultimately how would I go about shutting down the site mate? Obviously save a backup first?
-
@jac Pretty simple. We just stop the NodeBB instance so it’s not available anymore. Then yes, perform a backup of the database, plus all files. The server will of course remain.

Great to hear it’s that simple

🤪Some advice needed, would you do a football site as discussed earlier? Or something else that you have an interest in?
-
@jac Honestly, something else. It’s going to be niche to a far greater degree than football. Remember, you’re taking the most popular sport in the world by far and attempting to make ripples in an enormous sea that nobody is likely to see with the QE2 of forums ripping through the waves…
How’s that for an analogy ?

Very good
.I’ll have think of something else…
Right so I need to back the site up? And turn off node.js? Apologies if wrong, on mobile.
Happy to take above steps if I know how to do it
🤪. -
@jac For the time being, I’ve put the site into maintenance mode
Gives you enough time to work on backups etc.
-
@phenomlab thanks mate.

So in order to perform a backup, is it a snapshot I need to do via Hetzner CP?
