I will be moving FlytrapCare.com and FlytrapStore.com to a new server on the afternoon/evening of December 24th, 2014. The site will be offline for at least a few minutes, perhaps as long as a few hours. If all goes well, we'll be back up and running on Christmas morning (December 25th)!

Wish me luck :D

Just a reminder that the FlytrapCare and FlytrapStore websites will be inaccessible for some portion of the day, starting around 1pm PST. Hopefully everything will be up and running normally by this evening or Christmas morning.

Hope everything goes well! Just wondering, do you expect to see any difference in site/forum performance or anything like that with this? I like this kind of stuff(tech info) so I'm very curious about any changes/improvements/etc. :D

If everyone sees this, FlytrapCare.com and FlytrapStore.com are on the new server! Let me know if you see any problems or have any issues.

In particular there may be some broken links on the main site (FlytrapCare.com) and some broken links and odd formatting on the FlytrapStore.com website.

Hi Matt, this is on the mobile phone experience.

Forum:
I seldom use the forum from the mobile phone browser because it is pretty small after the entire screen is squeeze into the resolution display. If you have a mobile phone version it would be good. I always end up zooming in to see properly and has to move the page from the hidden part of the display into the screen so I could see more information.

something to add on to user. sometimes I would like to find the topics created by a user but there is not link for this. In the community profile is not working well too. Can you add a link or something for this? Example : Not a good example because not all topic are created by user, but when I click on it, I would like to see something like this
http://www.flytrapcare.com/phpBB3/tish- ... opics.html
http://www.flytrapcare.com/phpBB3/matt-u2-topics.html

Additional link to a user post would be good tool

small issue on the page. Are you able to lock the page so the advertisement will not create an extra empty space in the page?

And the store button/link. I thought it would be better to be outstanding in red bold world or a red background for the button. Perhaps it should also be right on top of all the buttons.

Store:
Looks very neat and easy to use now. Since "Add to cart and View details" button has ablue background. Just thought "out of stock" button should be in a grey background or something like that

These are all great suggestions, tish, thank you so much! I've actually had quite a few of those...actually all of them!...on my wish list to get done as well. I'll definitely work through those and try to fix/enhance the site.

Thanks for taking the time to post these suggestions and feedback!
