This doesn't affect VCSWEB web hosting clients but may affect other people reading this and it's important that anyone using GoDaddy for Managed WordPress Hosting know that their site data may have been breached as well as their password for updating their website. Serious stuff!

This morning, GoDaddy disclosed that an unknown attacker had gained unauthorized access to the system used to provision the company’s Managed WordPress sites, impacting up to 1.2 million of their WordPress customers. Note that this number does not include the number of customers of those websites ...

Over the last several months, I've been looking into new Hosting options for our VCSWEB clients. One of the choices I trialed was a cloud hosting facility that I was pretty enthused about, but it proved not to be viable as many our clients want cPanel and this was not available. The initial cost was low, but then there were incremental increases with each added client. It became obvious that it just wasn't going to workout as I'd envisioned. We still needed a new home though, and I've found one that won't break the bank (and I won't have to increase prices), plus it should be tons faster in regards to both processing power and connection speed for the websites.

So over the next couple of weeks, I'll be moving all of our clients to the new server. Not a lot will change for the vast majority, and if anything does come up, I'm only an Email or Facebook message away. If something isn't right, please let me know - I can't fix it if I don't know about it. I will let you know before I move your site and after it's moved, I'll send an update with all the details you need to know. For those of you that have your mail forwarded, I'll just let you know the site is completed. Anyone who collects mail from the server - I'll send updated information so you can make changes to your Email client.

Once this move is complete, then it will be time to give the VCSWEB site the major overhaul it's needed for a fair while.

As always, thanks to all of VCSWEB's clients for being the amazing people you are, and I'm so happy and proud to serve you.

Cheers!

Rod and I both used LastPass, and long before he became ill, we set up so we were each each others emergency access for the app. This meant that when the worst happened, I was able to use the access to get to all of the passwords that Rod used for various things. Not just the bank, but also since he handled the bills, for every utility, the car registration, his superannuation (like the 401K), etc. This saved me from having to make difficult phone calls or Emails to places trying to get access to his accounts when I was already feeling vulnerable and lost. Instead, this side of things was actually much easier than it could have been. Think about your partner or your kids or whoever is left after you're not here any more. Or just do it for yourself. Password Management apps - Like LastPass 1-Pass or RoboForm make your digital life so much easier. Remember one password, not 10 million and don't be the type to just use the same password everywhere. That's bad too. Just get a password manager and use it.

Not to mention all the program related sites for Ozpost, which made a huge difference for new owners to be able to access and update the WooCommerce version for WordPress.

Evaluating the merits of Dashlane, 1Password, LastPass and other methods of keeping long lists of increasingly complex passwords safe and accessible.

The new programmer is in discovery mode with Ozpost, so it's looking good, but other than that I really don't have any other Ozpost related news. But I do have something people who have subscriptions to renew are probably looking for - the functioning web link! So if you need to renew your subscription, the renewal link is:

VCSWEB Online Store! Ozpost Shipping Module Subscriptions - The Ozpost modules are available for free download from our official website at: Ozpost.net.au. All Ozpost modules have a 60 day free trial period. This means the software can access the Ozpost servers for shipping quotes for the entire 60....

Ozpost News: Hi there - we've run into a bit of a snag as the programmer has had some life events that have taken precedence. We're still here, everything is still working and I will continue to work with the development team on this. Meanwhile, to help make things a little easier for everyone, I re-instated the 3-month subscription rate so you can choose between 1 and 3 months.

Last month, a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was patched in version 5.2.0 of the popular WordPress plugin Abandoned Cart Lite For WooCommerce. The plugin, which we’ll be referring to by its slug woocommerce-abandoned-cart, allows the owners of WooCommerce sites to track abandoned shopping ...

The VCSWEB servers are in the process of being migrated to a new server using LiteSpeed, which should give a 20x speed boost to site loads. When I requested the change, I expected it would take a couple days before our provider would start on the project, but they caught me by surprise. I'll need to update IP addresses once they finish and as there's only one of me it may take up to an hour or so. I apologise for any inconvenience. The speed increase should be well worth the short downtime though!

This upgrade will NOT cause any interruption of the Ozpost shipping module because those domains are on other servers. This will only affect reaching the Ozpost subscription store and Ozpost website for however long it takes for the migration to take place.

Hi everyone. I'm very pleased to introduce you to Tassos, who is part of the team working towards keeping Ozpost going:

"We are a group of developers that have got together in an attempt to ensure the continued development of OZPOST for the benefit of everyone involved. Our focus is as a first step to be able to maintain its current state and support existing versions. Once we can confirm that this is possible then we will look at what can be done or should be done moving forward including taking into consideration existing clients requirements and future prospects.

We do hope to be able to support all 4 current systems that OZPOST supports. We have given ourselves an approximate timeline of 2 months at which stage we will/should know where we are going. My advice will be if you are interested in the continuation of using OZPOST to keep an eye on the main web site https://OZPOST.NET.AU as that will be our main platform on any major announcements.

Of course, feel free to contact me at any time if you would like an update on the current status 🙂

Regards
Tassos

GREAT NEWS EVERYONE!! We're still working out the details but Ozpost should be under new management and will continue to function for a long time to come. While we will continue to have the one month subscriptions for awhile until the dust is settled, the Ozpost servers will NOT be shut down and will continue to function.

10/12/2018

Please DISREGARD the notice below as there will be new management for the Ozpost software:
---------------------------------------------------------

Due to the untimely death of Rod Gasson, the Ozpost programmer, the Ozpost service will cease to function as of 10 March, 2019

We are accepting only 1 month subscriptions until 10 February 2019.

We will begin pro-rated subscription funds in the next few days for current subscriptions that extend beyond 10 March 2019.

Please do not ask his wife questions about using Ozpost. She will not be able to assist you. Thank you for your understanding.
