Read-only mode

calendar_today September 30, 2022

We had a serious set of injection attacks on the archives Tuesday, September 13. This affected story titles and disclaimers being turned into site redirects. To maintain security and protection of our users, the archives are in read-only mode till we figure out how it was done and patch it.

If you posted a story or an update on Sept 13th, it has been lost due to data restoration (backup from Sept 13, 1am).

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this, but have deemed the read-only mode necessary for the time being. 

Update :  We are slowly rolling out of Read-Only Mode. Originally we were going to jut patch it, but it was decided it would benefit members more to roll out Fiction Portal 3.0 which as planned for our 20th anniversary in November. Anywhere you see the new layout, it means that area is no longer in read-only mode.

Fiction Portal 3.0 has some much requested features, changes, and some perks for those who have donated to the site.

Server Migration

As you might have seen in an earlier post, we are going to be moving the archive to new server hardware, scheduled at the moment for July 1. Because this is a physical change, there will likely be some unavoidable downtime for the archive. So please, if the archive does become inaccessible, bear with us and we promise, we'll be right back!

PHP Update

We are migrating from PHP 5 to PHP 7, this will increase site security while delivering better performance of the archives and forums.
