MyWikis User Satisfaction Survey

If you use any of our services or hosted wikis (you don't have to own it :) then please give us honest feedback so we can help improve on our weaknesses. We will take all responses very seriously. http://support.mywikis.com/limesurvey/index.php/913898/lang-en

More about MyWikis Unmanaged

Two weeks ago, we introduced MyWikis Unmanaged, the premier product for people who want to manage everything by themselves! MyWikis Unmanaged gives you one database, one user account, and one month to set up everything up! It costs $5/mo for most, but it doesn't cost anything for wikis moving to MyWikis

MediaWiki 1.22.2 upgrade available

UPDATE 2: MediaWiki 1.22.2 has been released to rectify a serious security flaw in MediaWiki 1.22.1.

UPDATE: MediaWiki 1.22.1 is now available for requesting at the TSS: http://support.mywikis.com

MediaWiki 1.22 will be available on Tuesday, January 14, 2014. This is a minor upgrade version and only contains security fixes. Major public wikis, as well as corporate customers, will receive upgrades automatically. If you have MyWikis Pro or MyWikis Free and you are interested in upgrading your wiki, please notify MyWikis Staff at support.mywikis.com. We are not responsible for broken wikis not at the latest version if we add new functionalities that work fine in the latest version. We are also not responsible for security flaws.

MyWikis Free says goodbye, MyWikis Unmanaged says hello!

We say goodbye to MyWikis Free, and openheartedly welcome MyWikis Unmanaged, our unmanaged, self-service MediaWiki hosting product. Starting at $5, you can configure the wiki by yourself! Features are listed on the MyWikis NewSite page.

[FIXED] ALERT: Websites down

THIRD UPDATE: Ok, the website is up again!

SECOND UPDATE: Website down again! Ugh, we apologize and we share your frustration!

UPDATE: Problem fixed.

As of 9pm CST, all of our services except Blogger and Twitter are down. Our host is working hard on fixing this. If you require compensation, we will try our best to divvy our host's given compensation.

If you need to contact MyWikis Staff:

Email mywikiscom@gmail.com
Respond to our tweets on Twitter

We hope this issue is resolved soon and we will let you know about progress as this situation progresses. Since it is nighttime for us, we are unable to actually update this issue until we wake up. Apologies for any inconvenience!

(Side note: We are looking towards using more web hosts in order to reduce any possibility of another shut down.)

The Snapchat hack and our public service towards Snapchat users

Hello. We have obtained a copy of the Snapchat user list file. It contains:

• Phone numbers (with the last two digits censored)
• Username
• Region

If you would like to use it, you may download it at snapchatdb.info. If that happens to go down, we will check for you. If you don't want to download a massive file, please email us at contact@mywikis.com, make the subject "Snapchat - need info", and include your phone number without the last two digits or your snapchat username.

Our last remarks this year.

Thank you to all this year who have helped MyWikis get to where we are now. This year has been big for us and our customers. Happy new year to all!

We're off for the holidays!

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanza, and Happy New Year! We'll be off from December 21, 2013 until January 5, 2014. For this break, we've implemented holiday hours. Only one worker (the CEO) will be working during the holidays.

MyWikis Pro, Enterprise, and VPS customers:

• Response will be given within 48 hours, most likely in 24 hours or less
• No guaranteed responses, we will try our best to answer any inquiries before MyWikis Free/Basic customers.

MyWikis Free and Basic customers:

• Response will be given within 96 hours, most likely in 48 hours or less
• No guaranteed responses, we will try our best to answer any inquiries, however, Pro and above customers have priority over your support inquiry.

All customers and visitors:

• Unfortunately, live chat will be closed; you can still reach us from support tickets
• Wiki requests may be delayed a few days
• Any issues with wikis will be slowly resolved OR they will be unresolved until the end of our break.
• If you are looking to cancel your MyWikis subscription, it would be preferable to wait until January to do so as a courtesy.
• Any security issues that require immediate day zero patches will be answered as soon as possible
• This schedule will not apply on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, or New Year's Day. We will be completely closed on those days, except for security issues. (e.g. If you have Pro and you filed your ticket the day before Christmas Eve, your ticket will be read on Boxing Day or the day after.)

Staff may be subject to staff development sessions during the holiday period, therefore they will not be able to continue with their normal tasks.

P. S. – The Hour of Code deal is now closed!
