I've been busy trying to get move into a new server this past weekend. Site moves were done without a hitch, but it takes a few days for dns to catch up. The original plan was to have the copied site on the new server turned off so that when it switches over no one can post on the new database. With a turned off board it's left at the state where it switches with no new changes. I can then back it up and be up and running as soon as I notice the switch. Apparently I goofed it, and the site wasn't turned off.
I was left with the desition to lose all posts made since the crossover (around 9am today) or leave it and lose all the posts since sunday. I went ahead and and brought back the older posts.
Any post made after around 9am is lost forever. Sorry guys. I'll take the heat for this one.
