Transfer hivenyc.org blog hosting to Mozilla #256

Closed ldecoursy closed 8 years ago

ldecoursy commented 8 years ago

Currently hosted on Go Daddy and it expires on Feb. 8

@jbuck, hoping you can help!

jvallera commented 8 years ago

Let us know how @jazoulai and I can help

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@ldecoursy One thing I'd do right now is cancel the renewal, because I think the notice said that they process it on the week before it expires

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@ldecoursy could you create an wordpress admin account for me on hivenyc.org ? I'll need to export all of the data on the site. I'll probably also need file access if that's easy for you to setup?

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@simonwex I'd like to use a wordpress hosting provider for this. I was thinking a professional plan from WPEngine. Thoughts?

ldecoursy commented 8 years ago

@jbuck Just created an admin account for you, let me know if you don't receive the password via email. Not sure how to give file access - @jazoulai can you help with that?

ldecoursy commented 8 years ago

Also just cancelled the renewal - please let me know if for any reason this won't be done before the expiration.

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@ldecoursy okay, I got my sign-in working

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@jazoulai The reason I need file access is to download all of the pictures from http://hivenyc.org/wp-admin/upload.php

jbuck commented 8 years ago

Ah nice, WPEngine has a built-in migration checklist: https://wpengine.com/support/migration-process/

jazoulai commented 8 years ago

@jbuck what's the username your using on Wordpress? I can't seem to find your user.

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@jazoulai it's jbuck

jazoulai commented 8 years ago

sorry yes @jbuck, don't know why it wasn't coming up before. You have full admin privileges. Are you being denied access to something?

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@jazoulai there are two things I need to backup: the database, and the files. It's possible to backup the database from the wp-admin console, but the files need to be backed up by copying them somewhere else.

Looking at Godaddy's documentation, you'll need to get the sFTP credentials and then email them to me.

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@ldecoursy actually, I think you might be the only person who can send me the sftp credentials. Let me know if you want to vidyo it!

ldecoursy commented 8 years ago

@jbuck Can you do anytime within the next hour, or sometime tomorrow?

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@ldecoursy and I had a quick chat just now. She was able to generate FTP credentials for me, so I've currently backing up the Wordpress data. We also decided to change the renewal to a monthly option, giving us more time if we're not able to complete the migration this week.

@simonwex and I will figure out what our options for Wordpress hosting are tomorrow on our standup and report back here.

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@ldecoursy Okay, we filed https://github.com/MozillaFoundation/mofo-devops/issues/257 to investigate suitable Wordpress hosts. We're looking for one that would suit hivenyc.org as well as our CMS project.

ldecoursy commented 8 years ago

@jbuck I see #257 is now closed. Any word on this one before we pay for another month with GoDaddy?

jbuck commented 8 years ago

I think I have a decent migration strategy here. Let me see what I can do!

jbuck commented 8 years ago

I've started a migration to http://hivenyc.wpengine.com . I'll update this thread when it's done!

jbuck commented 8 years ago

@ldecoursy wanna take a quick peek around http://hivenyc.wpengine.com/ and make sure everything looks good?

jazoulai commented 8 years ago

@jbuck @ldecoursy should I wait to post new content until the migration is complete?

@jazoulai I can run another migration (and it'll be much quicker) so feel free to post content! I'll let you know when I'm transitioning the DNS.

ldecoursy commented 8 years ago

Looks good to me at quick glance. @jazoulai can you also poke around the link above and see if everything seems like it's working?

jazoulai commented 8 years ago

Everything looks good on my end @ldecoursy https://github.com/ldecoursy @jbuck!
