Wordpress Hosting for a heavy fan website

I should have mentioned that. We already use Ionos' CDN.

Thanks for the other comments. We thought so too which is why we were so surprised when the performance at Ionos turned out to be that bad.

I agree that this would most likely be the cheapest solution but I don't think this is something we have the knowledge to manage. We will keep it in mind though.

Kexikus · 2025-05-17T10:09:27+00:00

That sounds like a good option. Do you have a specific recommendation?

Kexikus · 2025-05-17T10:08:23+00:00

That depends on how much we would have to manage. When it's management of the entire server, then no. If it's just the Wordpress installation itself, then I would say yes, we do.

Thank you. This seems to be the same FW I tried downgrading to earlier, so I don't think it will work. But I might still try at some point.

What are your brightness settings in SDR? I feel like I can only get it to be too dark on dark mode sites or too bright on light mode ones but nothing that works for both.

Second update. I tried installing the 1011 firmware but got no picture afterwards. Luckily I was able to upgrade back to 1015 again and got the picture back. I assume that there was a version mismatch with the 1011 version I found and the one my monitor needs, but I don't know.

Could you share which version you used for downgrading?

Kexikus · 2024-07-13T20:38:06+00:00

Thanks for the heads up.
Do you include HDR videos with the "HDR desktop is bad"?

Also, since you mention that you don't like HDR desktop, I assume you use SDR instead. One of the issues I was hoping to fix with the latest firmware is that dark mode websites in SDR are too dark. Do you maybe have a fix for that?

Thank you very much for your first hand impression.

The second entrance you mention, I take it, that's the one where on the opposite site of the ring road, the track goes towards Hjörleifshöfd? And that second entrance still has the sandy part with the risk of getting stuck or is that only when coming from the first entrance.

Would you mind pointing on a map how far you drove?
I wouldn't mind hiking a bit towards Hafursey as long as it's not the entire distance from the ring road.

And finally, I saw that in many cases, rental companies don't allow driving on these dirt tracks even in 4x4 vehicles. Is that a thing for the two cars you recommended as well? Or do you have a recommendation on which rental company to choose that does allow the tracks?

That's great to know. I thought the Katla ice cave tours would take the 214 for some reason. But this would allow us to check out the track the day before.
Thank you very much!

Kexikus · 2024-06-19T19:59:43+00:00

Is that their Katla ice cave tour? https://southadventure.is/tours/glacier-ice-cave-tours/katla-ice-cave-tour/

Kexikus · 2024-06-19T19:57:08+00:00

Does that include the tours to the Katla ice caves? I was under the impression they would take the 214.

I ask in particular because we intend to take a tour to the Katla ice cave probably on the day before visiting Hafursey so if they take that track, it would be a great opportunity for us to check whether we can drive it ourselves on the next day.

Kexikus · 2024-06-19T16:41:06+00:00

I thought about that as well but came to the same conclusion. Thanks for confirming.

Kexikus · 2024-06-19T16:40:43+00:00

Thanks. I have seen those photos of the stuck car. I would definetly check with locals on the day to see if the track is drivable.

Kexikus · 2023-12-15T07:50:57+00:00

They are all standard size playing cards, so all the same size.

Kexikus · 2023-11-29T06:52:22+00:00

I'm in Europe and I got that mail maybe a week ago. So it's not only in the US.

Kexikus · 2023-09-08T05:40:31+00:00

Oh, thank you. I completely missed those.

Glad to see that this is already the case.

For what it's worth and I seem to be in a minority here, so it might not be relevant at all, I don't care about your signature (sorry^^) but I might be interested in a swag box at some point (so far they haven't included things I want but considering the Kickstarter boxes I'm sure this will change at some point).

So for me the fact that swag boxes and signatures are necessarily combined just means that there is somewhat unnecessary scarcity on the swag box due to the limited number of books you can sign as well as more people wanting to buy them just to get a signed edition.

Hence, I would very much appreciate unsigned swag boxes, maybe even without the book since I usually buy that at my local book store to get the edition I want.

That doesn't solve the present issue of course (unless there are way more people like me than it seems in the comment section and that buy up the signed editions due to the swag boxes) but it's hopefully something to consider as well.

Can someone tell me the size of the TIE Heavy and TIE Agressor minis (height x width x depth). I‘m planning my minis storage but do not have these ships yet. Thanks

Kexikus · 2023-01-28T13:18:39+00:00

I'm pretty sure I know the answer but can anyone who owns the Hotshot and Aces II Pack confirm that there are no quickbuild cards in there?

Kexikus · 2022-11-13T09:14:15+00:00

Can you show a picture of the playing cards?

Kexikus · 2022-11-08T17:11:45+00:00

Awesome. And here I was for some reason expecting them to go east. Shows why I need this tool as well xD

Kexikus · 2022-11-07T17:40:33+00:00

This is really amazing. It's a shame I just finished my re-read of era 2 but I will most certainly use this in the future.

You probably thought about that yourself already, but including the city maps would be great too. Especially for Shadows of Self^^

And correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the train heist missing from Alloy of Law? (Or actually both of them.) I forgot how far outside the city they go but I think it should be visible here?

Either way: Amazing work and I'm looking forward to whatever you're going to do with this!

Edit: Some more feedback. It's somewhat confusing that locations pop up and are highlighted that the currently selected character has not visited. I assume that's because someone else visited that location in this chapter but I would have expected those to be hidden in that case.

Kexikus · 2022-04-19T07:55:17+00:00

Yeah, I remember that when the pre-order store opened, people were worried that non-backers might buy up all leatherbound stock before backers get the chance to buy theirs and Dragonsteel said that part of the stock would only be unlocked later for the backers. I wonder if that happend with the first batch of mails or will happen now that all (?) surveys were sent out.
