This page discusses setup issues related to webhosting for the minetest.org site.

== dot-org HTML ==

As of 2023, the minetest.org site was stored in the following tree on the host box used:

 /var/www/minetest.org/

That was actually a symlink to a directory tree stored in a compressed loopback filesystem.

As of 2023, the minetest.org site consisted largely of a few static HTML files and links to dynamic subsystems such as the old forums, the git repos, and the wiki.

The HTML files were coded in Haggis, a markup language that OldCoder had developed for his own use. Haggis wasn't suitable for general use but the results were nice enough. This was due to the efforts of CoRNeRNoTe, also known as Mr. PHP, who created a suitable template.

If the site is still coded in Haggis, the ".html" and associated ".html.gz" output files can be regenerated as follows:

 cd /var/www/minetest.org/
 haggisproc *.haggis
