I can modifications to the website once I get the login credentials, haha. Until then, idk what to really do.

What is a PGP Authentication key, specifically? I looked it up, and I get it's a security measure, but what's the purpose

It's useful so we know that the person who owns the account now is still the same person

How does one create one? If you post the PGP keys on the first page, wouldn't that make it available for anyone that would attempt impersonation? haha

Going to be honest with you here when I say that I haven't really gotten into PGP but from what I figure it's like BTC addresses (signing).
You sign a msg with your private key that proves it is you (you own the address). It is then converted to "public" format so that everyone else get's your "public" key and verifies that you are the owner.

Am I right here guys?

Hey guys,

sorrry I have been on a LOOOOONG weekend (not vacation but it was long).

So, did you miss me? (be honest - honour amongst Crypticts remember Wink

)

OK, first I would like to apologize for being a bit late.
Sorry I had to go out of town for the weekend.

That being said, I am back and you can expect the logo (for those who seen the preview) to be ready by tomorrow.

Other than that, I will be in PM discussion with SirLolicon regarding the website.

The plan will proceed as scheduled for those who are interested.

Also for those who want to join please PM SirLolicon.

Thank you

Welcome back!
Kinda got worried, and of course we missed you haha.

Let's get everything back on track then shall we.

Don't fully understand what you are planning with cryptic, so it's not really my place to judge, but I have a couple of comments regardless:

- The domain choice kind of makes me cringe, I can't help but feel the club word has a childish connotation. On the other hand I like the cryptic part.
- Is PHPBB/SMF an elaborate choice or are you open to other suggestions? If your answer is the latter then please consider using a little bit more modern software:
* NodeBB https://nodebb.org/
* Discource http://www.discourse.org/
- For blogging software, I can highly recommend:
* Ghost https://ghost.org/

I have experience with all of the above, so if you opt to go for those solutions and you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

On the domain, yes, I know it isn't the first choice, but it's what was provided
And the .org and .com domains were already taken.

As we said before, even the server itself is temporary as we're on a planning phase.
We're in fact very open to suggestions.

Hmmm I like those suggestions for the software,
I'll try them on a test server and give it a go if it's easy to manage and deploy.

Are you interested in joining Cryptic?
You're free to join as of now, but requirements like PGP Auth
And agreement on the rules agreed upon will be asked from you when we go
As a full blown crypto organization to the public.

Regards,
SirLolicon

The ideal domain name would've been cryptic.org, but that's taken, unfortunately. I can't speak for the organization, but I don't think they'd be against suggestions. Modern software is welcome to be experimented with; personally I'm not extremely familiar with either of your listed options, but forum software is pretty much all similar. I think the reason that PHPBB/SMF was decided upon was due to reliable experience in the past.

Congratz on making your first post, btw. Tongue

Everything sounds good guys! Great contributions.
The forum will be hidden from public after the site is finished.

There are countless templates for forums out there, and they're all similar. For the appearance of the front page, it looks like a standardized front page, which most forums share. WordPress is good for CMS, and it's straightforward. I'm actually currently managing a webpage for a club using WordPress haha

That is great news

Because chances are that the website will be Wordpress based and you will be handling a decent chuck of it (if you want of course) Wink

Yes it is a private group.

The only reason I have allowed public access to the forum so far is to show the progress the group is making.
Apart from that we are still curently rectuiting members.

I am sure that those interested would like to see what improvements we made so far.

Then plan is that by next week (hopefully), http://cryptic.club will point to the group's online presentation which will contain the profile/rules/manifest/news and new registrations (for now).
The forum will be MEMBERS ONLY ACCESS.

Guys, sorry but it is almost 1am here (12:49 to be precise).
I get up at 5am.

I will need at least 4 hours of "beauty sleep" (I would much prefer bootty sleep

but the misses fell asleep hours ago).

IF the problem persists please contact me.

Once again I have made changes to the domain forwarding so that might require some time.

I will get to it as soon as I get back.

Thank you

it's been 5 hours now since you last posted,
now it doesn't really show anything instead of a blank white page. Sad

EDIT:
Clearing cache doesn't change anything

Hi, sorry for the delay.
When I said I get up at 5am that is to go to work

Also, please update your forum link to:
http://cryptic.club/forum/

I have actually used phpBB as it seems the problem was with SMF.
I can use SMF and figure it out if you guys want.
Personally I want something that works Wink

Your login details are the same.
Once logged in click on ACP or MCP.

Will also work on this more later

Hello!
Thanks for the modification

Appreciate it, and I'm sure the club will too.

Now that we have a forum in place, we can get it fixed up until we can get a front end up and running.
What would you think would be a good software for the front-end?

Pardon me for my misunderstanding, but isn't this a private group? So it's now becoming a public forum?

For the front-end you mean this one?: http://cryptic.club
It's active btw and says coming soon (VERY PLAIN).

I usually work with WordPress as a CMS so chance are that, that is how our website will be built

For the forum we will use phpBB, and make it look MUCH nicer of course

Oh, don't forget to add moderators and admins so we can all work together and start shaping things up

Create one for me as well as I would expect you to have changed the login details I have provided you with.
(I hope you did).

Thanks
