So we’ve just put online our fresher looking Cruise Hive which will mainly make it easier for us to update and maintain which is what we’ve had trouble with in the past. So far all the main sections are now live but the only part which isn’t is the Cruise Ships section which is a different matter all together! We’ll keep you updated on our new site and any other major events.
Cruise Forum Issues
Some of you might be aware that our Forums look different and not working correctly…well we’ve had our first glitch! For some reason the database is not working along with errors when logging in and because of this it’s delaying us updating the rest of the site which was going well up to now.
Hopefully by the end of the day the forum will be in working order without loosing any users or posts, we are getting support from the phpbb people themselves who help design the software so fingers crossed as the Cruise Forums is a very important part of Cruise Hive and is also integrated deep into each page of the site.
We’re getting there!
The last 2 weeks have been pretty good indeed. All the main sections of Cruise Hive are now complete with only the hardest one left, and that is the “Cruise Ships” section which will take a while. Cruise Hive has had some great feedback on the new web site and the popularity has increased thanks to twitter, facebook and our partners. In February so Cruise Hive has already received 125,000 hits!!! wow thanks! and thats just the start. Most of the time behind the scenes is spent building the site but once everything is up and running I wont always be posting site news here. Will be posting the latest happenings around the Cruise industry so everyone can get involved.
2 Sections done, another million to go!
So far the two sections of the site are fully complete. Those sections are the Cruise article and Travel shop. Am now working on the Cruise Videos section which hopefully won’t take that long! I’m saving the Ships pages till last as that will take a long time to do, can’t wait!
Posted from WordPress for Windows Phone
And so it begins….

Hi everyone, so we have finally decided to put together a Cruise Hive Blog as we don’t want to get left behind everyone else! We’ll keep the Blog going forever and will constantly be posting site news, events and behind the scenes comments. The good thing about all the Blogging is that I can also keep you all updated via the Windows Mobile 7 phone, thanks to it’s pretty neat Word Press app! So there is no getting out of it!
So about the site itself, You may have noticed it hasn’t been active for a while thats because myself Emrys Thakkar actually work on a Cruise Ship and thanks to the $20.00 per 2 hour internet cards it makes it very hard to maintain. So whats happening now is that the entire Cruise Hive is being re-developed and more social friendly with the likes of Twitter, Facebook and of course Word Press. Sp these services will be deeply integrated into the site so it will be very seasy indeed to keep everyone up to date on all the latest cruise gossip. It will take some time to get the site going but it will be worth the wait as it’s gonna look sexy, clean, fast to load and easily updated.
I do urge you to register at the forums and let us know your views on Cruise Hive.
For now better get back to working on the site on this fine grey Sunday afternoon!!!
