Repair my OLD php dating site built on OSdate. Site NOT working on newer GoDaddy hosting. :(

Completed Posted 3 years ago Paid on delivery
Completed Paid on delivery

I used an OLD php script from MANY years ago called “OSdate.” It was a free script to run a dating site.

I modified the script a bit over the years… and had the site up and running for 5+ years.

The site is 100% free. It is a dating site for childfree singles. Basically, it was a hobby of mine to run this website where singles could try and find a date with other singles that did not have or want kids.

The site was up and running for 5+ years with ZERO problems.

It has been hosted on GoDaddy the entire time.

GoDaddy recently required me to switch hosting plans because they upgraded their equipment. So I downloaded all of my files via ftp and saved the mysql database. I tried to re-upload the entire site to the new hosting on GoDaddy and TRIED to upload the dateabase. Now suddenly, the site does NOT work whatsoever. I’m NOT sure if the database loaded correctly because it is about 147megs and GoDaddy didn’t seem to like the OLD php website. It might be a combination of both, or perhaps something entirely different. I have no idea.

I am a novice and can’t figure out why the site is no longer working on GoDaddy’s newer equipment. My GUESS is perhaps the newer GoDaddy server is not compatible with my OLD version which used an OLD version of php or perhaps my database didn’t load correctly? But again, this is a total GUESS on my part.

I’m looking to find somebody that can log into my GoDaddy account and fix/repair my dating website (which is in php & html) to get it up and running again.

Here is a direct link to the website if you want to take a peek – although I use a domain name and forward the folks to the following web address:

As for cost.. honestly.. I don't mean to be cheap/frugal, but the site is 100% Free. I'm very seriously considering just closing down the site but was curious to see what I would get charged/have to pay to get it up and running. The site actually costs me money to run every year (for the domain & hosting). But I'm hoping if I can get it up and running again for super cheap, I'll do it. Thanks in advance. Stay safe everybody.

NOTE: I would really prefer to hire somebody familiar with the OLD dating script “Osdate” as I think it will save you a lot of time/confusion. Therefore, IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH “OSDATE” PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU BID. THIS WILL ALSO SHOW ME THAT YOU READ THIS JOB DESCRIPTION AND DIDN’T JUST DO A MASS RESPONSE. Thanks.

PS: Please do NOT hate me or get pissed, but I'm hoping only to spend about $50 or less to fix the site. It's a free site for me and am honestly not sure if its worth fixing. But if I can get it fixed CHEAP, then it will be FUN and I'll do it. I KNOW 100% your time is VERY VERY valuable... but this is just a goofy hobby for me and I'm about to lose my job via the virus threat so SINCERELY not sure if its worth spending $$. Regardless, thanks for your time. Be safe.
