Welcome to What Used to be SallyHuang.com…
Recently…my website died…
I found it non-responsive one day, something which was happening rather frequently over the past few months. I went to check the server status at my old web host http://www.serverway.net only to find a blank page with short note telling their domain registrants to where to go to reclaim their domains. A Google search revealed that apparently these guys have been out of business since last July…which is funny seeing that I paid for a full year subscription in September. Their numbers are disconnected, they are non-responsive towards their emails.
The MOST appalling part of all this, they never even informed any of their customers. So here I am with a new host…and not much of a site.
Unfortunately, having created this site with wordpress, I have to reconstruct the database with all its data in order to restore my site, which turned out to be not so pleasant with WordPress version mismatches, and a really bad backup file. I’ve pretty much decided to give up on restoring my website in full. At some point I’ll manually restore some older posts, for now…the site will just be rather empty.
On the plus side…WordPress 2.5 rocks! The new UI is way better than the previous version, and the “Add media” function is incredibly convenient.
