The Catacombs is moving - kind of!

Dear friends,

I am in the process of transitioning The Catacombs to a new site, essentially building it anew from the ground up, or 're-platforming' it.

As some of you might be aware, Proboards is the current hosting platform of The Catacombs. Since March there has been a warning in the admin section of the forum:

This is strikingly similar to the same censorship widely seen by the mainstream media and other media giants. So it is in an effort to protect what we have here, a forum migration process has been started.

As soon as new information/updates become available, they will be posted as replies to this thread.

I don't yet have a time frame on when the finished new forum will be ready - my hope is it will be ready in a few weeks. Maybe sooner.

For a quicker and smoother transition, I may leave this "old" site with all the posts here intact, with a slightly different URL (copying the most important posts onto the new site). So basically, there will likely be an "archived" site here and the newer, censorship-free site elsewhere.  All this may be necessary because Proboards doesn't easily allow migration of information/posts/data from their sites. Again, as the specifics are worked through, I will keep everyone updated.

As can be expected, some things will be exactly the same (i.e. most of the boards and sub-boards: Archbishop Lefebvre, Church Teachings, Fr. Hewko's Mass Schedule and Sermons, etc.). Unavoidably, some things will be a little different. Exactly how much will be different, I won't know until the process is nearly completed.  I am confident there will be some improvements too!

I will likely "bump" this thread regularly so that all are aware of the migration.

Let me know in a PM or here if you have any questions.

God bless you all!

May I beg a short prayer for the good soul giving much of his time to help with the technical aspects of this transition!

Ad majorem Dei gloriam!
