Latest Update on the Vanguard Site

The database has been rebuilt and needs to be optimized.  It is hoped that the site will have normal functionality by Monday, but since we’ve been saying that for a week…
Davis VanguardWe moved the Vanguard site to a new server.  However, spam attacks limited the site’s functionality.  We believe we have identified the source of the problem and over the course of this weekend, we will resolve it.In the meantime, we have published this week’s articles on the Vanguard Facebook page.On Tuesday, after two days of difficulty our web developer determined that we need to move onto our own dedicated server.
Since December, our readership has tripled in size.
That’s the good news, the bad news is that will cost around $200 a month in charges.
We are asking our readers commit to a $10 a month ongoing contribution to help us with these additional costs to run a growing site and organization.
If you can go to PayPal.com and give to account: info@davisvanguard.org at a level of at least $10 a month, for less than the cost of a monthly newspaper subscription, you can help the Vanguard stay on the internet.You can also go here and hit the “recurring contribution” bottom at the bottom right.We need at least twenty people to help us.  Thanks for your help.
