The site's been down for 3 hours and I didn't even know about it... but it was my fault  :-(   I'm designing another website for a friends business, and I messed up a file on BM in the process.   Nobody let me know BM was down, and i've only just got home to find out.   Can't apologise enough, it was entirely my fault                                                                                                                                                                               

  I let ya know!!! Twice   Flippin eck *tuts*   It's the HOME page, it keeps denying me access                                                                                                                                                                             

Well Matt i've been sitting here refreshing the page for 3 hours solid itching to get on so i'm afraid sorry just won't do to compensate me for all the stress and anxiety you've caused!! 

Now bend over and take whats coming to ya! 

These things happen Matt, just don't let it happen again ALRIGHT!!                                                                                                                                                                              

  Oo I say *mrs, made me blush that did lol   *figure of speech not a slur on your gender                                                                                                                                                                             

lol thanks RK.   Kwak... as I said, I was out.  I didn't have access to my PMs or I'd have known the website was down anyhow!  I've been out all night, since I killed the site lol.  You have my fone number, you should have txt me and I'd have come straight home.  Nobody sent me a text which is what I need if the site is down.                                                                                                                                                                             

Now bend over and take whats coming to ya!  Is ther summat you need to tell us RK??         it were only the home page there were a problem with                                                                                                                                                                             

Sorry Matt, but RK did text me about an hour ago and I just assumed that it was pre-arranged down time for maintenance .                                                                                                                                                                               

yeah  i got on  by  bypassing the home page     shucks  us wimmin !!!!  no stopping us  hehehe                                                                                                                                                                             

  You've deleted the post where I say   I can get access to the home page now, ta Matt   How can I let you know when you've gone out?   I let you know, but I couldn't know you were out could I? so naturally you won't get it til you get home.   makes note to self...purchase a crystal ball for when Matt goes out                                                                                                                                                                                 

Matt said - You have my fone number, you should have txt me and I'd have come straight home.  Nobody sent me a text which is what I need if the site is down.   Give me yr number Matt...I'll make sure you know about everything                                                                                                                                                                              

In case anything like this happens again, heres an easy way around it..........use the favourites button, your top left of your screen as you face it. Save, say your Account page and when you try to access it it will ask for login and password...thus bypassing home page.....hope this helps.. 

no, if you can't even get into the website after 5 mins - SMS me.  I was in a theory lesson not far away and I could have come home easily.  You've even got access to the Dutch website to txt me from if you've got no credit etc   I really am fuming with myself!  Especially cos i made the mistake and it was such an obvious mistake.   For those interested, the website i was doing to kill BM was www.waggs-boutique.co.uk  My mate's dog grooming place                                                                                                                                                                             

  Bow wow!                                                                                                                                                                              

o.k.johnny i'm with you !
                                                                                                                                                                             

it wasn't a problem Matt  stop  beating yourself  up  (  well only if i can watch    )                                                                                                                                                                             

Kwak - if im not on the online page, or if u dont know, just assume that I'm out. Especially after 3+ hours of downtime! Dont worry, its back now :-)    I deleted your duplicate post and the reference to it. Johnny... well done!!!  Well done indeed!  You could get around the homepage.  In fact you could go to www.bikermatch.co.uk/sites/bm to get to the homepage if needed also.  But its rare the homepage would ever die and not the rest of the site, was only because I changed the default.asp file in the root directory (actually I didn't I removed a reference file from the server and so the default.asp file was failing because it couldn't find the linked file).                                                                                                                                                                             

*Is ther summat you need to tell us RK??*

drob I didn't say I was gonna give it to Matt but i'll bet DC would 

You girls are very clever, i had no idea it was just a homepage problem 

*because I changed the default.asp file in the root directory (actually I didn't I removed a reference file from the server and so the default.asp file was failing because it couldn't find the linked file).*

Matt don't think you can worm your way out of this with a load of geeky lingo!                                                                                                                                                                              

matt, i tried to let you know but the site was down !!!!                                                                                                                                                                             

stick with us girls  RK   we  know  how to get on here
