Happy go Lucky

I'm using Hostpapa. What are some better ones? Also, I'm a newb at this. Would it be a simple as having them take over hosting of my current site?

Ah, I found Under System>Overview>Files a list of attachments that has lots of pdfs and other files. I'm working on deleting some of them. Hopefully that will help.

I'm trying to get a less expensive package from the company hosting my website (which is essentially just a forum). They are telling me it uses 1.1GB and I need to get it under 500MB to get the different hosting package. Does this seem to be about right? The forum is about 20 years old and I've deleted many older posts that had few responses but I'm hesitant to delete more unless I'm sure it will get me under that 500MB threshold. So far my deletions haven't seemed to lower the memory usage very much at all. Are there any ways to get the memory it takes up down significantly? Is there a way to look at my dashboard to see which files are taking up the most memory?

Hostpapa is hosting this. I guess this is something they should do for me. Thanks.

Ummm. Ok. I don't know where the root directory is. My apologies. My tech background for this is zero. I'm at the dashboard screen where it has Overview, Site Features, Settings, etc. down the left hand side.

Not sure where that htaccess file is.

I have a user who sent me a note that I should force users automatically use SSL. He mentions that this might be done in the core settings of Invision and where I see http://, add the s to make it https:// I don't know where to do this or if it's something I should do. Any assistance would be great. Thanks!
