Site update – some problems
So this is about the 4th attempt today to post this update, hopefully it will work this time. Â Firstly I want to apologise for the lack of updates. Â Unfortunately I have been unwell, and had a minor operation a couple of weeks ago resulting in an infection. Â Thankfully I am on the mend now but the site has also been having technical problems during June meaning I couldn’t access the admin panel to post anything! Â This now appears to have been resolved after I edited some of the php code manually and disabled some of t he plugins.

SIte update 20/02/14 #2
Some more updates today as I get the site back up and running again Some further changes under the skin to improve performance.

Â Facebook like widget ... Read more

Due to changing of a few settings I managed to break the permalinks feature in WordPress thus corrupting the entire site. Â No amount of trying to force a reset of the cache in the database or clearing and modifying the htaccess file would get the site back up (the site was totally inaccessible apart from via ftp) so I had to wipe and start afresh! Â As a result some of the previously implemented features such as ship AIS, cruise ship listings, and some of the videos in the vessel articles have not been re-implemented yet, however the bulk of the site text was backed up on my hard drive and so this has already been restored. The following where my original updates, items striked through have yet to be re-implemented Switched WordPress theme back to responsive as Prana was not displaying very well on mobile devices. Â This also seems to ... Read more
