New Domain - gcwrestling.us!

Post by Ironman » Sat Dec 08, 2018 5:39 am

That's right, let's simplify things. You can now visit the site using the below domain name:

http://www.gcwrestling.us

I will be adding SSL within the next few days for security purposes, which just means you'll be redirected to https. The first time you visit the forums using this new domain name, you will need to log in again.

We needed to do this because there was a problem with the pairsite domain we were using, although for all of your bookmarks, gcwrestling.pairsite.com will continue to work indefinitely. Our web host has not changed. pair.com is the best host; I know, I work there. ;)

Why not .com? Two reasons. First, .com version was already taken, and secondly, I got a good rate on the .us equivalent. :D

One thing to note...I've received notice that people are having a tough time staying logged in to gcwrestling.pairsite. That is because phpBB can only associate board cookies to a single domain, and I had set those to gcwrestling.us. A bit inconvenient but there you go. I guess start getting used to using gcwrestling.us and you'll be fine. :)

And now I fixed it so that both addresses redirect to https://www.gcwrestling.us so no one needs to worry about cookie or other issues.

Oh yeah, and I broke the site for around a half-hour today while doing this. Sorry about that. :/
