BuyHTTP Corporate Blog

We have just finished installing Round Cube webmail on all of our shared and semi dedicated servers. As a part of this install we have removed SquirrelMail as there have been a number of recent security issues.

Round Cube is still in Beta stage, so please report any problems to the helpdesk and let us know if you like it or not.

It’s currently being installed on dedicated servers by request, submit a ticket to the helpdesk support department to have it installed on your server.

We’ve been receiving periodic reports of tutorials not wanting to show on tutorials.buyhttp.com but were having problems tracking down the issue since we were always able to see them. It turns out the problem was related to the different issue that IE and Firefox use to get source information for flash files. We’ve isolated and fixed the issue, so you should be able to view all tutorials from IE now.

We are proud to offer a new security check service for your Joomla and Mambo sites. We will do a full audit of your site and automatically implement a number of security features as well as give you a checklist of additional items and best practices.

We will implement the suggestions outlined in the Joomla Security Checklist and make sure you are setup for a secure future. This setup covers everything from changing the username of your admin user and setting up a more secure password to stopping some of the worst attacks before they even reach your site.

In conjuction with this service we are also offering discounts on some of our most popular addons and services. If you order the security check service you will also receive:

• 25% off our daily backup service (BuyHTTP web hosting customers only)
• 25% off a Joomla or Mambo upgrade
• Free hack recovery if you signup for the daily backup (BuyHTTP web hosting customers only)

You get all of this for only $99 if you are a BuyHTTP web hosting customer. Sign up now!
If you use a different host or have your own server the cost is only $149. Sign up now!

We have added a series of 10 iJoomla Magazine tutorials. The series goes through installing iJoomla all the way through getting your content displayed. You can view the tutorials as our tutorials site.

We have moved our helpdesk to http://support.buyhttp.com. Please update your bookmarks.
