What happened to FIRECalc?

Pressing the results button no longer gives you results it takes you to a donation page. What's up?

This is mentioned on another topic.

It seems that the new admin is trying to increase revenues. I've donated and so did a couple of others but still can't access it.

I'm sure its just a mistake from the server conversion. I've notified the authorities.

It also doesn't work with saved calculations that are bookmarked. I have a few scenarios bookmarked and when I click them, it brings up the defaults.

We will need to wait for Dory36 to chime in here. Firecalc is still Dory's baby...

I think he had some upgrades done to his server last week and maybe this caused a problem with Firecalc.

Sorry about that - I moved it prior to decommissioning the server that the forum was on -- and something didn't survive the move.

I fixed it, but until your dns catches up, it might not work yet -- but you won't see a partial either.

Use firecalc.info for today -- it is the same thing on a different server.

Any donations in the past week have already been refunded.

Firecalc.org, firecalc.net, and firecalc.info work in the meantime...

Firecalc.com is working now for me...
