Nordiclarp.org has moved to new, faster and better hosting!
As you might notice the website looks a bit different than it did yesterday.
After a long period of high costs, bad performance and technical issues we have migrated the website to a new hosting solution. It’s easier to keep up to date and manage as well as costing less.
Bare with us as there might be some issues to sort out after the move. I’ve tried my best to get everything moved as smoothly as possible, but as a goal of the migration was to use modern versions of everything and not carry over legacy solutions some small details might be weird at times.
Please report any bugs you find to admin@nordiclarp.org or just any general technical feedback.
Both the website and wiki have gotten fresh new looks besides the major upgrades to underlying software versions and hosting. We are using as close to default themes as possible with as few extensions and customizations as possible to avoid long term issues.
If you are interested in the technical details we have moved from a bare metal VPS solution to a managed containerized platform based on Coolify. The sites are hosted on servers in a Nordic country owned by a company based in an EU country. Public assets like images and cached pages are distributed globally with a CDN but no stored data passes US controlled companies or servers.
Whenever possible we use free open source software which is why we are staying on WordPress and Mediawiki.
Enjoy the website, enjoy larps and keep sharing knowledge and experiences!
Update: By design old users and history was not migrated for the wiki and user registration is not working at the moment, I’m working on it.
