Storm2k Admin Announcement

#1 Postby chadtm80 » Wed Jul 09, 2003 6:31 pm

Afternoon Everyone :D

Just posting to let everyone know that we will be removing the CNN Weather Forecast from the templates by this weekend... It is just eating up TONS of bandwith, and with the addition of the weather central there is just not as big of a need for it.. How it is right now is EACH and EVERY time you go to the index page it request the info from CNN... So everytime you come out of a forum it requests it again.. So as you can imagine that uses a lot of Precious bandwith.. The deletion of this feature should also speed up the use of the board just a tad, and will prevent the CNN error message from appearing at the top of the page that im sure you have noticed from time to time..

Once Marshall and I have a lil extra free time we will Put this feature on a seperate page so that you can access it by clicking on a special link...


Thank You :D

Sounds good, Chad. I look forward to accessing the feature via another page. :D

I was using the weather for one of my local areas for a period of time, but then decided to remove it. :)

I WAS beginning to wonder about all those "Error" messages with "%/***/***(?access/?)&ixtfykatsflPLLLLT!" and some vague reference to CNN at the top of the page, especially when getting in was slower than coppertop on the first day of school... :roll:
