:::{{Ping|Jurjendevries}} For us to be able to fix the DNS you have to answer the question Addshore asked above. --[[User:Reception123|Reception123]] ([[User talk:Reception123|talk]]) 10:54, 22 July 2015 (BST)
::::{{Ping|Reception123}} {{Ping|Addshore}} Sorry, missed that one. I registered the domain at provider TransIP. From there I configured your / Cloudflare nameservers to be used. I don't manage your DNS, and are only able to point to another nameserver. I used clark.ns.cloudflare.com as primary DNS, serena.ns.cloudflare.com as secundary, and ns1.orain.org as third. --[[User:Jurjendevries|Jurjendevries]] ([[User talk:Jurjendevries|talk]]) 11:03, 22 July 2015 (BST)
:::::So first you should remove ns1.orain.org totally. Secondly you say "I don't manage your DNS". I don't quite understand this. You are pointing your domain to cloudflare name servers and you have a coludflare account right? Or not?

:::::::{{Ping|Reception123}} {{Ping|Addshore}} I removed ns1.orain.org. I don't have a Cloudfare account. If I remembered well, Southparkfan asked me to point to Cloudfare, so I thought Orain have an account there and is managing the DNS records. {{unsigned|Jurjendevries}}
::::::::I will let {{Ping|Addshore{{ answer. But just to point out, Orain does have an Cloudflare account. [[User:Reception123|Reception123]] ([[User talk:Reception123|talk]]) 12:11, 22 July 2015 (BST)
:::::::::Indeed we have a cloudflare account but permanentfuturelab.wiki is not in the list.. As per [https://freedns.afraid.org/domain/dnstrace.php?domain=permanentfuturelab.wiki&submit=Trace this tool] I can see ns1.orain.org has now gone. I'll add the domain to our account now. Will report back in a bit.

::::::::::::{{Ping|Reception123}} {{Ping|Addshore}} Great, even the redirection of www is working. Only one small thing left, is it possible to do a wildcard 301 (permanent redirect) Eg. if a visitor is going to http://www.permanentfuturelab.wiki/wiki/Permanent_Future_Lab_Wiki can you redirect this to http://permanentfuturelab.wiki/wiki/Permanent_Future_Lab_Wiki . Else some search engines will see this as duplicate content, and some users will create external links to www. instead of without www. . Thanks a lot for helping. --[[User:Jurjendevries|Jurjendevries]] ([[User talk:Jurjendevries|talk]]) 12:52, 22 July 2015 (BST)
<small>(reset indent)</small>Yes, it is possible. Should be done soon [[User:Reception123|Reception123]] ([[User talk:Reception123|talk]]) 14:31, 22 July 2015 (BST)
 
== Search bar problems ==
 
I'm asking this question pertaining to notsoepf.orain.org.
 
I know normally on search bars, it gives "suggestions" for articles when you type things in... but for some reason it isn't doing it on this wiki. According to the founder, it's only including pages that have been created ''on'' Orain (not the articles there before we moved here). Is there any way you can fix that? Sorry the explanation isn't the greatest, I'm not sure for the technical terms of it. I'm not asking you this from an account because I have a concurrent account/contrib problem, that I'm going to address in a new section once I'm done writing this. But- I'm CK, an admin on that wiki. Thanks for any help you can give. [[Special:Contributions/184.1.246.222|184.1.246.222]] 23:32, 31 July 2015 (BST)
 
== Merge accounts? ==
 
Hello. Once again pertaining to the notsoepf.orain.org wiki, but also for all of orain I suppose.
 
Before the wiki had moved to Orain, I went by the username "Cp kid". I was tired of that name, so I created an orain account with the name "CK". My question is, if you can move all contributions from "Cp kid" over to the "CK" account, or if I'm just out of luck? It seems like there should be an easy way to do this, I wasn't sure though, but I just figured I'd ask anyways. I haven't edited on the CK account in fear of it complicating things for moving the contributions. Thanks for your help. However this turns out, I'll probably go back to editing from CK after this. [[Special:Contributions/184.1.246.222|184.1.246.222]] 23:36, 31 July 2015 (BST)
:Hi, CK. I don't believe there's a way to merge contributions, but if the CK account is deleted, we could globslly rename your old account. The last time I did this, L(ixxx)235 was locked out of their account, and is still unable to log in.. I'm going to go ahead and mention {{ping|addshore}} and leave this for them. -- Cheers, [[User:NDKilla|NDKilla]] <sup> ( [[User talk:NDKilla|Talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/NDKilla|Contribs]] ) </sup> 17:18, 3 August 2015 (BST)
