Data Engineers Have Optimal Solution To Restore Comment Function:
Success !!
It appears we have a workable solution achieved. Excellent….
….Welcome Back Gang… let’s test drive this thing.
Run it hard, use this thread to try out the stuff you are familiar doing. Let’s see what we need to tweek modify or adjust to get back to peak operational condition. Share your issues and ideas in comments.
We are no longer on Automattic/WordPress servers and despite the extremely tight forced eviction timeline we have achieved a safe rebuild ten hours ahead of deadline. Quite an accomplishment considering the scale of the task at hand, and a holiday in the middle of it.
There are a few random reports of regional DNS issues and here’s a few tips we are discovering from users:
♦ Make sure you are using the latest version of your browser software. Reports of Mac not reaching through to new site, but when OS “Big Sur” is added things improve.
♦ Make sure your cookies and cache are not returning you to old site activity. I apologize for this issue because clearing your browsing history is always a mess and can often require you to re-enter all saved passwords, but that’s one of the unavoidable issues with an entirely new set of servers and new DNS targeting.
♦ All regional Internet Service Providers (ISP’s), responses for queries and bookmarks launched by users, should be aimed toward our new servers now. Some of them took a long time to update, and there is a familiar pattern to it (discussion for another day).
♦ Remember, while we are using WordPress open source code/software, we are not operating inside the WordPress/Automattic platform. Some proprietary functions of WP/Automattic will not be available. I think the notification bell is one of those functions.
♦ There will be a new email-notification program initiated later today that will allow you to sign up for email notifications of new articles and updates. [In the works] In the interim Twitter users can use the notification function and all articles will cross-post to Twitter.
There are going to be features and site enhancements to come along later. Right now the priority was to keep everything as identical and familiar as possible. We will likely be doing some cool site changes now that we have full proprietary control and ownership of the site.
Thanks again for bearing with us as we work through some technical issues, search for optimal solutions, and fiercely retain the original values and mission priority of the Treehouse. The Truth Has No Agenda
Please be patient if you get hung up in a moderation cue. It may take time to release some comments if they are hung up in moderation. The site admins do a great job with comment moderation and release so it shouldn’t be too much of an issue; and quite frankly, there are likely to be benefits from not having WordPress/Automattic software filtering through the comments as they post. Spam removal will be a priority.
Thank you for your support and fellowship. We will always work diligently to deserve it.
As word spreads… the voices of the rebel alliance are arriving now. The best open-source researchers in the world are firing up their laptops and preparing for the most critical moments in the battle to save our nation. The CTH printing presses are rebuilt, oiled, and the deep rumble of the machinery is slowly building to a deafening roar.
We are extraordinarily thankful… and itching to get FREE VOICES back into this fight.
Love to all,
~ Sundance

Thank you for keeping the place alive, its one of my go to sites for the latest in the fight.
Crazy times, more at stake than some realize.

Thank you.
Hello my Fellow Treepers… glad to be here in person this time, never took the time to sign-up in Word-Press in the original CTH, but now I have my chance in CTH 2… been a Lurker for almost 10 years now and feel like I know most of you… Congratulations Sundance !!! Wow… what an accomplishment in such a short time! OK… now… I’m gonna need a nice “Big Branch”… AdRem, bump it down a little, we got a Big One commin’ in… I’m an Old Guy from So Cal… (with a wide rear-end) lookin’ to make some friends and get an education, and make some new Christian Friends, I’m a recent “Born Again” Christian and I was recently “Baptized” right here in “Huntington Harbor” I build “Hotrods” and they call me CoolCat here in the beach area… Well… now that I’m retired and “Old”… ha, ha… seems like I blinked and I was “OLD”… I guess that’s the way it goes… I’m Long Winded and Long-in the-Tooth… I read my Bible early every morning (with my wife) just trying to learn how to live and be a good man and patiently waiting for God’s hand to move…
Darryl….welcome to the Treehouse from a fellow SoCalifornian! Hey…I found a branch on one of our lower limbs….with just a skosh more room. 😀
ha, ha… Thank You, Ad rem for the warm welcome…
This is my “New” Home…
Let us waste no more time arguing what a good man should be… “Be One”…
When I was growing up, we were taught the stories of people whose inventions and scientific discoveries had expanded the lives of millions of other people… Today, students are being taught to admire those who complain, denounce and demand…
Thankful for how well this massive transfer went….and how everyone can once again relax on their branch. God is Good ALL THE TIME. : )
Two Suggestions to please consider:
1__Placing a “Return-to-top” button down in the footer.
2__Changing the light grayish-blue font (e.g., at “Comment,” “Name,” “Older Comments,” et al.) to BLACK font on either white or very lightly tinted backgrounds (e.g., as seen in reply box) which would provide low-vision visitors with an opportunity to hopefully “see” everything at CTH.
For what it’s worth, IMO, CTH doesn’t need any of the fancy “designer colors” or “trends” other websites use to “attract” visitors.
What attracts visitors to CTH are all of its WELL-WRITTEN TRUTHFUL ARTICLES and all of its insightful, thought-provoking comments.

It is so comforting to have the community back! Many thanks to Sundance and his crew of patriots!

Love and endless gratitude to you Sundance.
Greatly grateful for Sundance and the others who keep this a special place.
So glad to see the re-planting of the tree is taking root!
Great job to Sundance and the team
here is the correct email for me
and my TCH 1.0 screen name
Thank you, Sundance! Phenomenal work! You’re AMAZING!
Welcome back, all my Treeper family! Great to be back together!
I posted this on Saturday 11/28 and think it’s worth reposting since it was probably lost.
***********************************
This just popped in my head about the gargantuan amount of information being moved into the new Treehouse planting.
A Terabyte is 1000 Gigabytes
A Petabyte is 1000 Terabytes
An Exabyte is 1000 Petabytes
A Zettabyte is 1000 Exabytes
A Yottabyte is 1000 Zettabytes
Therefore, a Yottabyte is ONE BILLION Petabytes.
Now if I may proffer a metaphor.
Joe Biden is someone’s PET. And using an Italian accent, “That PETA BITES”
Sundance is our YODA. Using the same accent, “Our YODA BITES”
Yes, it should be fairly obvious where this is going…
Sundance is ONE BILLION times smarter and stronger than Joe Biden and his masters, has a BILLION TIMES more powerful BITES than Joe Biden and his masters, AND, is FULL of the FORCE OF TRUTH.
This is ultimately why the Death Star is destroyed.
Virtually impossible to beat or survive our Yoda Bite!
Hey, very cool! My little cartoon caricature of myself was even saved!
Will we be able to “LIKE” Treeper’s comments in the future?
That’s a feature I enjoy, to support each other without having to reply to let them know I appreciate their thoughts.
Also want to let you know that my comments here are posting on the new site FREAKISHLY FAST! It’s really nice!
For information purposes regarding the speed of use, it’s Thursday 12/3 about 7:25 am in Northern California.
Trying to signup for email posts
Email subscription not set up yet – hopefully in the near future.
I have to think, after all they have put President Trump through, he is prepared for this ! Pray for him and our country !!

Now counting right to left: testies, Testies 2…1… – that is all
I opened my CTH yesterday and was in the year 2011. I started reading and found some interesting blogs and posts, not all by Sundance. ZMalfoy had a long reflection on her spiritual journey, which I found compelling and honest and a little frightening because I have encountered some of the forces she was writing about in much the same way she did. Only, I ran from those spirits after commanding them in God’s name to leave me alone. They check in occasionally, but leave promptly when told. I now understand the term “unclean spirits” from personal acquaintance. The world as described in the Old Testament is not a metaphor for man’s ego.
I think that when one realizes the evil in this world is really and actually embodied in
Satan and his demons, it wakes you up to the real spiritual war we are all involved in, whether we know it or not.
Our country is involved in this war . Our whole culture is shuddering under Satan’s rule. Pray for help. These forces are deceitful but powerless against prayer.
