I apologize in advance if this is the wrong section to post this in. I have a server running Scoop that will be 'going away' and I have been looking around to find a webhoster to run it for me. Problem is that I changed a bit of the code to suit my needs so it is no longer stock Scoop code. Does anyone know of a hoster that can run this for me? I can combine all the code into one variable to make things easier, I suppose.

| I know you're going to ask, so here's a brief description on what I changed:
* added code for statistic calculations for hockey site I run (may be going away, so it's not that big of a deal)
* code to return the last $num comments from a story id (so that I could run different boxes off sections with section specific forums and not go crazy trying to make changes to each box and have them homogenized)
* changed some of the html that was generated by the Scoop code so that it was optional (like the Next Story links)
* user customizable images for the Diaries section
* regex in the RDF fetcher to remove "Customize this feed' text from NewsIsFree website
* changed ordering in sub displaystatus_select to desc
* added new getstories type (seven links)
I'm sure there's some other stuff, but that's all I can come up with from memory. Now, before you go and blast me for not making them boxes, I put these in the Scoop code because I didn't want to have incredibly convoluted boxes full of code for each of the sites I was running. I could just host the one or I might host them all, but I wanted multiple instances of the same code in one place so that I could edit it once and be done with it. That said, any suggestions on what I should do or where to look for hosting? (If you want to take a look at the sites, they are here: pipebox and ISoldOut) |
