Hmm, okay, that doesn't make it any easier.

By Joomla interface do you mean the admin area of Joomla?

I'm not sure if that works in J3... also works.
Admin area => Content => Media
Copy the favorites there.

The information is without guarantee, I am not a Joomla specialist.
If it is fungzionized, the icon changes, if it is not fungzionized, it consumes memory on the server, but does not interfere with Joomla!


Who pays the hoster? He should also have access data, because without access data it is only a matter of time before nothing works anymore.

Yes I have access to the Joomla admin panel and I do see the Admin > Content > Media with several directories there.
 

The guy that pays for hosting is not around but he still pays for it. I don't have any contact information for him. I do have access to the forum host admin.

Sounds like we are running an underground organization here or maybe a mad house.
I really like this project but sometimes I do wish somebody would put some sanity into it's organization...

Aciera has a good point, this needs to be sorted out.

After much sweat and nail biting, we have a backup. :)
Damn it took what seemed like ages, and the stern warning not to switch to another tab or window was very big.
Backup taken on Tuesday, 15 October 2024 21:36 UTC
Could not change the logo as there is no FTP or SFTP access and that seems the only way. Strange...

Ok that is what filled up the disk space... it needs to be off loaded as we are at 95% now.

That was the main reason for nail biting...
Made a post on mod forum for further processions.
Thank you.

It is very commendable that the person continues to finance the hosting, but this is also a risky situation. If the server goes down, it would be difficult to restore it without direct contact.

Perhaps we could contact the provider and ask them to forward an email to the operator? A suggestion for the message could read like this:

‘Dear Sponsor, we appreciate you continuing to sponsor the hosting of the web server. However, a lot has changed in recent years and we would like to update the system. However, we are missing certain credentials (usernames and passwords) to do this. We would like to politely ask you if you are in possession of this data and could provide us with access if necessary.

Our aim is to bring the website (linuxcnc.org/), the wiki and the forum up to date and to ensure that everything works without errors.

We would be very pleased to receive positive feedback.

If you mean the storage space on the server, I assume (my English is not perfect, but if I have understood the hoster correctly) that we will be permanently at about 95%. The hoster dynamically provides exactly as much memory as is currently needed and automatically expands it as required.

Nevertheless, it would be helpful to know how many GB of memory we are currently using. Of course, a little tidying up never hurts!

I have just seen in the source code that the icon is somewhere else.
<link href="[url=view-source:https://forum.linuxcnc.org/templates/protostar/favicon.ico]/templates/protostar/favicon.ico[/url]" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" />

The forum has 2GB of memory and 80GB of disk space. The backup was 14GB and shot our disk usage up to 95% so it has to be deleted.

Just to be clear I am one of the three owners at Digital Ocean for the linuxcnc.org group which hosts the forum. The owner of the linuxcnc.org is someone else.
