Thank you guys for all the hard work moving this site!
I already wrote Laz some early feedback. More to come!
For those like me who did not see it, since it only is in the blog post: You need to reset your password. Otherwise you won’t be able to login. Maybe Laz should mention that in the post here, too?

It’s taken a while, but @Laz and @Raikkonen have done a ton of work to get the database moved over and the new forum looking nice. There’s still quite a bit to do as mentioned in the post, and I suspect we’ll be ironing out little things with the forum over the next few weeks, but the bulk of the work is more or less done so we can focus on getting stuff running as smoothly as possible here.
The next big thing from my perspective is getting the download archive cleaned up. There’s a ton of content for Dungeon Siege(?) in there and nothing is really labelled clearly. Would love to change that and make it easier to use and browse.
Worth noting (I don’t think this was mentioned in the post). We currently have the registration queue active to deter spammers. If your forum account is taking a while to get authorized, give us a prod on the Discord, or shoot an email to admin@the-starport.com to get it cleared quickly.

Really nice job. It’ll take me a little bit to get used to the new look but very much appreciate your keeping TSP alive.
-
everything looks amazing ! Nice work !
-
not bad so far
-
Looks good.
It would be nice if you could also migrate private messages. -
Woot woot. This looks great. Now I just need to get back into doing modding and contribute to the KnowledgeBase…
-
@DragonFire One project at a time?

@NeXoSE Did actually spot your post as we were setting this up! I think @Laz had it watchlisted though
@Crazy I think this may be off the table due to the work involved and how different the DM system is for NodeBB, but I think the plan is to bring the old version of the site back on a subdomain for a short time when we can talk to @w0dk4 next so folks can grab things like DMs and forum avatars they might no longer have handy.

@NeXoSE said in The Starport Has Moved!:

Actually yeah. I saw your post when I was setting up the new site and was like “that’s actually way better”.

As said before, great job guys!
Also, maybe it’s possible to make a mapping from the wfd downloads to the title and description in the database with a custom import script. All the downloads without wfd in the name are probably the old TLR downloads which didnt really have proper names/descriptions and are probably too outdated anyways.
-
I’ll look into writing a conversion script. Thanks for the tip
-
Ôla folks! Fantastic job for new look/forum engine. Finally I’m able to fix my username to a correct one (avatar will remain the same).
Now is so tempting to get back into modding and hanging with you guys again.
We will see… -

Hi folks, just a heads up, we’ve been a bit slow on accepting registrations over the Christmas period as we’ve all had other stuff on our plates over the last week or so. If your registration request is taking too long, or you think we might’ve missed it, fire us an email at admin@the-starport.com, or hit one of us up on the Discord to get it sorted out
