Was theoven.org shut down?

klepp0906 · 23 May 2021

So ive been painstakingly going through my logins ala password manager. converting 100's of accounts is taxing but better late than never.

I've arrived at theoven.org and am getting a 403/denied access error.

Just curious if the site is gone or this is a temp thing or something else altogether?

If its gone I want to remove the credential from my password manager, however if its not gone i certainly dont want to do that for obvious reasons.

perhaps @Kyhi has some insight?

Hello @klepp0906,

I have just tried it and I got the popup box saying Authentication Required.

I did hear a little while ago on here that there was a problem or the Site was being updated or something, but I have NOT heard or seen any more about it since.

thanks for the reply. I did check from my mobile device and instead of a 403/denied access error i was presented with a credentials box in which my prior credentials seemed to not work, so no idea if it got made private or what.

will wait for some more info before i purge my password manager :P

it seems theoven.org is back up. looks to be new/fresh/wiped though. I cant log into my old account and a forgot password email isnt being received at any of my known/potentially used emails.

the link from the new to the old (archived) forum has a short notice about what happened.
