SSP in need of help

Post by The Sinister Chris »

Hello, my name is The Sinister Chris and I'm involved with the creation of the comic Shameless Self Promotion.

ssp.keenspace.com

It would seem that Yukichigai, the guy in charge, has pointed out to me that we've been having some trouble with the site itself.

The site doesn't seem to be updating the way its supposed to.

Someone helped him and said they had a script that explained everything to fix it.

the link was bad.

And he was wondering if you could just tell him what he needs to do to fix the problem so that our comic can properly update the way its supposed to.

We haven't updated in over a month due to this problem. Which can be bad when you're trying to collect a fan base.

So if you could please check out the site and send an e-mail to Yukichigai at:

Yuki@775.net

It would be much appreciated.

I will try to check this post if I have the time sometime in the next week in case you weren't able to contact him.

Thank you for your time,
The Sinister Chris

What does Yukichigai mean when he says "the ftp [is] somehow missing a few folders"? Which folders are you missing?

The only 'folders' that you'd need the Admin to to replace are actually symlinks:
/public_html/workspace
/workspace/images
/public_html/d/template.html (not shown)
/public_html/indextemplate.html (maybe)

Depending on your FTP client (Smart FTP is good for this) any other folders can be replaced by you.

BTW, the most common cause of the main page not updating is having a file begining with 'index' in webpages.
