Balthagor,

Good job.

My graphics look OK too.

Thanks. Still more to do, but it's getting there.

I'll need to discuss some of your pages when I'm done, expect a PM from me when I'm ready to go over it.

Okay, I think I've got it. I've transferred nearly everything. Some pages were so small and so old I skipped them. I'm still trying to make the FAQ Drupal module work. I managed to set it up so a question can be tagged with a category but now how to sort the first page by category before sorting by weight. We're using Drupal 7 btw.

I'm going to give a few people access to the wiki soon. We'll need to look through the site as much as possible to see if we've missed any old content. We have put the old wiki up to a temp location for a bit but don't want to link to it, that'll just let the spam bots find it again. We replaced the www before the .supremewiki.com with old.

Please request access in this thread if you'd like to help.

Please leave a post in this thread if you find something missing from the wiki.

For those reviewing, you'll find that in some cases I took one massive page and broke it into pieces. In other cases I didn't. Like wise I sometimes condensed a few small pages into one. Registered users will be able to clean this up as they like but hopefully we'll come up with a concusses as a group to set a standard. Breaking some of the really large pages was a pain, but they're easy to create fresh.

Any idea why would my firewall choose to block only this URL from thousands other? And what exactly should I change and where? I'm not enterely noob but I could use some specific pointers :D

I can't answer your question. This is just a non-expert guess on my part.

"Firewall" was probably not the correct term for me to use.

I see that you have the Firefox browser.

Go to the SupremeWiki using Firefox and navigate to a missing image.
Right-click on the empty picture box.

In my FF browser there is a pull-down menu selection that says "View Image Info". Select this.

You should get a large window with a checkbox near the bottom labled "Block Images from old.Supremewiki.com.
If this checkbox is selected then un-check it, close the window and refresh the Wiki page.

Otherwise you may need to go to use the Internet Explorer browser to create a Trusted Site.
Start IE and go to Tools/Internet Options/Security/Trusted Site/Sites and add "http://*.SupremeWiki.com" as a Trusted Site.

If you find any pages were this is the case, please let me know. All the pictures should have been transferred to the new wiki else they will be lost when we take down the old site.

There are many images still on old.SupremeWiki.com.

One is here:

http://www.supremewiki.com/node/230

Many others are on the SR2020 Total Beginner Guide like here:

http://www.supremewiki.com/node/180

Right-click on them and check their Properties.

Okay, thanks. Crap. All images are linked to themselves. I updated the links but not the source. Easy fix but lots of drudge work to do it :(.

Unfortunatelly, none of this suggestions worked... :-(

Another strange thing is that if I click on the "place" where the picture should display it opens that picture in new window but it just won't load it as a part of a page |O |O |O

Can you give me a link to one of the pages you can't see? I've updated a bunch in the last week, I wan't to check the properties again for one that's not working.

Here it is http://www.supremewiki.com/node/178 but it appears it is only me with this problem. I even tried it from my work and the page loaded ok in IE. Not sure what is blocking those pictures but it seem to be local (my PC) |O
