Thank you Ryan Ashbrook

My web host, who shall remain nameless, decided to migrate my services to a new platform to improve performance and reliability.

Since the migration the forum was unusable, settings could not be updated and I was forced to take the site offline. The web host could not tell me what had changed in order to put things right.

Although it was clearly an issue caused by the web host and their server configuration, I raised a ticket with IPS which was quickly passed to Tier II support. Ryan diagnosed the cause almost instantly which I relayed back to the host. Everything is now back online.

Thank you @Ryan Ashbrook! You saved my bacon. :)

Would you mind sharing a short version of what the issue was and how the host needed to resolve it? Could be interesting to know in case others experience the same

It was a misconfiguration of Mod Security. It disabled literally every script on the website. That's as far as my knowledge stretches.

Ryan rocks! Don't tell him I said that though.
