Apparently disappeared?

The domain (owner: Dean Allen) has been renewed a week ago or so, according whois.

where was it hosted? Has Dean communicated with any of the TxP devs about intentions?

It’s on our Joyent server I believe. I can investigate tomorrow although it could be a DNS issue – which then only Dean could fix.

Re: Textpattern.org is down. Where has access to all the plugins gone?

Weird. It does look like a DNS issue. Whois says NS0.DNSMADEEASY.COM and such are authoritative nameservers for textpattern.org, but if you query the DNS root servers, they delegate to the .org nameservers and those don’t seem to know textpattern.org.

In the meantime, most of the pages are available at wayback: https://web.archive.org/web/20170115000000*/textpattern.org – The January 8 save seems more complete than the May one.

Any news on this? Can something be done? The lack of search in the archive.org version makes everything extra hard to do.

I’ll make some enquiries and see if anyone can fix this issue. If it’s a DNS issue (which I think it is) then only Dean Allen could fix that, and he is unreachable. So in that case I’d have to move the site lock stock to a new domain name.

+1 what about creating a subdomain on textpattern.io?

That’s the plan if we can’t contact Dean (which I’m pretty certain we can’t). It’ll be a few days before this is fixed though, sorry for any inconvenience.

On the meantime any plugins on GitHub that have been tagged properly can be located via this link.

Re: Textpattern.org is down. Where has access to all the plugins gone?

A local workaround is to add a line to your hosts file:

37.153.96.164   textpattern.org

.
BTW, is there a backup textpattern.org? While it is available on the hosting you need to do it.

Taking the opportunity, I read the nginx documentation and drank a couple of cups of coffee. ;-)

If someone urgently needs access to textpattern.org , then you can use the subdomain http://txp-org.uaho.net/ This subdomain does not contain any content, only proxy to the textpattern.org domain occurs. On this subdomain, indexing by search engines is forbidden, so duplication of content will not happen.

Your are a baaad person … :/ That works quite well in a quick test (and fast too!).

Did you enjoy the coffee?

But, as others already stated, the DB etc should be backed-up asap, and the whole thing recreated on a textpattern.io sub-domain.

Re: Textpattern.org is down. Where has access to all the plugins gone?

Yes, of course, need to completely transfer the whole site textpattern.org on the subdomain textpattern.io

I liked coffee, but I still sleep. ;-)

Re: Textpattern.org is down. Where has access to all the plugins gone?

Hi guys. I take it that the database and all files are still hosted in Joyent so I guess that our devs have full access to it.
