    Looks like it all went well enough. Have not seen any problems the past few days.

    Thanks for the vote of confidence Bill! 🙂

    A few more updates this morning. Nothing special. All looks like it’s working well.

    I fixed the Carburetor Flat Spots one and will work on the remainder as I have time. If there is one in particular you are looking for, I can prioritize it if you let me know.

    Posting an image to test image posting.

    Hmmm… seems to be working.

    It appears some nefarious actor got into our good site and tried to muck things up. Not entirely sure how just yet, still tracking down a few leads. It looks like they got stuck at some point… about when the site wen’t offline. We are (and were) at the latest versions of everything so I’m looking for (a) something entirely new or (b) someone was hanging around for a long time waiting to spring into action. I did find some very old but suspicious files.

    I’ve cleaned up all of what I’ve found and compared against the official code (from WordPress) and things seem to be running as they should be. I’ll be keeping an extra attentive eye on things!

    While I *think* that may be everything the only sure way is to do a complete rebuild of the site. I’m going to start looking at that but won’t be able to actually do the work for another few weeks. I’ll keep you all posted.

    Well then. Looks like our hosting provider applied the update yesterday. All looks good. Please let me/us know if there are any problems!

    You will also notice the “Store” is gone and replaced by a “Join” link.

    We have not had anything to sell in quite some time, so the link was a bit …dated.

    Also, to try and manage the spam registrations we have on and off tried different approaches. The current one will allow any current user to “invite” someone. This includes Paul and myself who I suspect will do the vast majority of the invites via the webmaster@tdreplica.com email address. Anyhow, if you click on “Join” you will see the details.

    Sorry for the delay, would you believe I didn’t have a usable computer for a week or so at home!

    I applied an update to the media manager plugin today. After a recent update to WordPress it was out-of-date. I’m curious if this was causing the “glitch”. Certainly keeping an eye on it though. Please do let me know if you continue to see the problem.

    And they keep coming… more updates


    You’re now running the latest and greatest version of WordPress!

    We’ve just upgraded your WordPress installation at tdreplica.com from version 5.6.2 to version 5.7.

    We’ve also updated your WordPress database and all of your plugins as well.

    buddypress was upgraded from 7.2.0
    enhanced-media-library was upgraded from 2.8.2
    wp-super-cache was upgraded from 1.7.1

    Things are looking great on our end, but if you’re seeing any unexpected behavior you may need to upgrade your theme to work with this new version of WordPress.

    If you’ve got any questions about this upgrade, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team at https://panel.dreamhost.com/support/

    Thanks!

    Another semi-regular update to wordpress this past week. We are at the current version 5.6.1. Nothing really to report other than that.

    Not sure how I missed seeing this for a few months! My printer is offline at the moment, though hopefully back operational soon. I’ll send you one for free. Private message me your address.

    Give me a few weeks though, need to wrap up the semester (work at a college) before I’ll have free time.

    Also… what color? Black?

    “Cadillac dealer in the Detroit” — definitely the London Roadster. It is very much like the Daytona though I have found several differences over the years.

    Look in the site’s Library under Manuals. There’s some info there about the LR.

    I also tweaked the fonts on the sidebar. Somewhere along the way the text got really small (completely unrelated to my eyes getting older). So I bumped the size up a tiny bit and added some larger margins.

    The detailing looks identical to my London Roadster in its original form. The pinstripe, whitewall tires, fog lamps, horn placement.

    @ricrx you have a photo of the instruments you pulled out? Do they have a gold or chrome bezel?

    ?

    Not sure, it looks like it worked. Did it fail once and then work the second time?

    I *just* did a version upgrade of WordPress to 5.4.1 (the latest) to see if it resolves @edsnova ‘s photo upload problem.

    So much for the reCAPTCHA, we were still getting spam registrations. Self-registration is turned off again 🙁
