Vella Gyaani (@vella_gyaani) reportedGenuine question: how do you guys build waitlist websites for your projects? That includes terms and privacy links as well? I have a traditional setup of HostGator, WordPress and a simple theme and editing it is a pain all the time. Help me with this transformation. Any guides out there to modernize my setup with no code tools?

Zombyboy (@zombyboy) reported@HostGator @DanMicovic I've been on two chats and three calls. I did get chat transcripts, but no emails with any information at all about how long I will be waiting. Not sure how sending you my information will help. I do know that tomorrow morning I'll be talking to my boss about KnownHost and InMotion as our new host. I'm hoping you will help make migration as easy as possible.

Daniel Micovic (@DanMicovic) reported@HGSupport @HostGator week 2 of server being down and zero access to my sites or emails. Escalated support has stopped responding, no updates on open tickets and zero responses from support here. Has @HostGator given up?

HostGator Support (@HGSupport) reported@dcodrea We know that popup looks sketchy, but it isn’t from your HostGator site; it’s a browser extension (Coupert) injecting coupon ads over your dashboard. Try incognito or another browser; if it’s gone, remove the extension. If not, support can help!

Jordan Blum🤘 (@JordanBlum87) reportedCan any tech people help? We use Outlook for The Bookends Review and once a week, it'll stop sending and receiving mail because "503 Valid RCPT command must precede DATA." Then, I'll delete the emails we have in the HostGator CP and it'll work again. Any ideas how to fix?
