I want to know too, bitcointalk gave me an error saying "SMF cannot connect, try again later"

The forum is just recently back up.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

Theymos warned that the forum will be periodically down as everything is reconfigured.

So no worries Wink

Ahhh, I see, thanks.

Are there more scheduled maintenance times, or is this the last one?

It's not the last, it may last for a few days.


 =snip=

There will some periodic downtime over the next few days (a few hours in total) as we get everything reconfigured/settled. A few things might be broken. Tell me if you see any bugs.

Everybody got it. It's nothing special since theymos already warned us this could have occurred as to allow the recovery from the last forum's DB incident. By the while you could have avoided posting if you had read the previous post here.

Same here. It was down about a day ago. Theymos is currently making some changes to the forum and fixing things up so this sort of downtime is to be expected though:

There will some periodic downtime over the next few days (a few hours in total) as we get everything reconfigured/settled. A few things might be broken. Tell me if you see any bugs.

Dear GOD/GODS and/or anyone else who can HELP ME (e.g. MEMBERS OF SUPER-INTELLIGENT ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS): The next time I wake up, please change my physical form to that of FINN MCMILLAN of SOUTH NEW BRIGHTON at 8 YEARS OLD and keep it that way FOREVER. I am so sick of this chubby Asian man body! Thank you! - CHAUL JHIN KIM (a.k.a. A DESPERATE SOUL) P.S. If anyone is reading this then please pray for me! [ www.chauljhin.com ]

So the search function is still offline? can it be repaired soon (and as it's something of real importance it shouldn't take as long as avatars repair took "∞")

Just use Google to search for now. Google is much better than the search function on here. Although, the search function can be useful at times.

use:
Code:
site:bitcointalk.org <search>

If you use a common keyword when searching, you may get many results. So filter the results by going to advanced tools and set dates.

Searching is enabled again now. I also made several improvements to search. It should be substantially faster now, and maybe also more accurate. (SMF was extremely buggy in this area -- it's surprising that search was even usable before.)
