Wanted Webmaster:
Well folks it time for me to hang up my webmaster handle for the Viva
owners Club, I have been doing this website for nearly 3 years and I think
that’s long enough for me to of exhausted myself of the desire to code
webpage’s for the Vauxhall Viva owners club. So I am looking for a
replacement.
What does that person needs: Well in a short answer desire and the ability
to at least understand HTML.
In a longer description:
Ideally understands and experience in:
a) PHPBB (our forum software at present)
b) Can code HTML, and CSS (all the pages are hand coded static HTML to
keep it simple)
c) Can use an FTP client
d) Ideally has used cpanel before (not essential as I can walk you through
that)
e) can set up and manage POP3 email accounts
That’s about it, sounds simple and it is, normal website changes revolve
around new links to the site, moderation of the forum, updating galleries
and adding more detail and making sure everything is ship shape. Plus the
changes as directed by the committee.
At present the site is hosted with a reliable company I personally have
been using for 7 years, If you the new webmaster wish to do thing your way
then that’s your call as a webmaster.
If you are interested in the position, then please contact me directly
webmaster@vauxhallviva.com.
My intention is to step down fully in early September from the club as a
committee member and relax / just be a member. If no one comes forward
then I will not change my plans, the club will be without any one to run
the website and or forum moderation. I cannot extent the webmaster role
any longer than I already have, but I will find some time here and there
to assist as needed during the hand over, but as soon as physically
possible I will retire from involvement in the running of the Vauxhall
Viva Owner Club website fully.
Contrary to the rumour and accusations I will not be leaving the club
membership, nor will I be joining the committee of another Viva club, nor
run their websites. I stand by my results as a testament to my belief in
what this club should of been.
