We apologies for the down time we have experienced recently. Our servers are currently running at full capacity and we are unable to upgrade them until the updated version of GHTime is released. We have now resolved all the issues which included the email server going down and some of the database tables becoming locked. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
Progress on the new version of GHTime is still going on, and initial testing on some of the new features has begun. We will keep you updated on the progress.
We hope you are as excited about the new features as we are. Keep an eye on the blog for updates.
Regards

We have been working hard to get the new site ready for an early 2010 launch. The new site includes a host of new features including:
- File uploads: Upload files of up to 20MB using our flash based (or HTML based) upload system. Uploads are dynamic so you can see the progress and not have to wait ages for the page to load.
- Amazon S3 storage: Files are stored on the very secure amazon S3 service. Temporary access is granted when viewing your files so they are always secure.
- Membership: You can sign up for membership, giving you access to the more advanced features on the site.
- User control panel: Once signed up for membership, you can access all your files and codes in the user control panel. No need to remember what the code was, its now all kept safe and secure in one easy to access and convenient place.
- Improved documentation and support
- Bug fixes
We are still working on the new site and hope it will go live sometime in the next 5 weeks. We appreciate any feedback and welcome any suggestions you may have as to what other features you would like to see in the future.
We will be making some more announcements nearer the launch date.
Happy New Year from the GHTime Team

The CAPTCHA system has now been implemented. This should help reduce some of the spam we have been experiencing recently. If you experience any problems with the CAPTCHA, please don’t hesitate to comment.

In the next few days we will be implementing a CAPTCHA system to reduce the number of automated submissions we are receiving. More updates to come.

Due to the huge number of people using the service, we have had to introduce a limit on the number of codes you can generate. This limit is set at 4 codes per hour. We apologise for the inconvenience that this may cause, we are working on some updates which will allow the limit to be removed in the near future.

The move to the new server is now complete, we apologise for any downtime which incurred (although this appears to have been minimal). The new server offers a huge amount of flexibility and will allow us to go ahead with the planned expansion of the site…. details to come!

Due to the growing number of people using our service we are upgrading our server. Apart from increasing the quality of the service, the new server should also increase the speed of the site and database.
We are currently going through the process of setting up the server and expect to make the move sometime in the next 10 days. Although we expect a very smooth transition, there is a possibility of some downtime during the move, we will keep you updated of any development.

We are pleased to announce that we are soon going to begin work on a plugin for phpBB. This plugin will allow you to protect the posts and threads of your posters by timestamping them. Unfortunately we don’t have a release date yet, but expect to see some more updates in the next few weeks.

You can now use the location option to link back to your own site!
If you set the location to a URL of the following format http://www.example.com , it will be displayed as a link on the code page. All our (non password protected or private) codes are indexed with Google, so this is a good way to increase links back to your site.
If you are using the wordpress plugin, make sure you set the location to your blog address in the options panel.
NOTE: Only valid URLs (which means including the http://) will be displayed as links.
