Straight out of the oven: I just logged into one of my Hostgator accounts and found the control panel completely changed. It looks good, but I have not had time to really check all the new stuff because something has completely caught me by surprise. Well two things really…

In the post where I talked about the pros and cons of the hosting provider Hostgator, I mentioned how their 50,000 inode limit could cause serious problems to users who wanted to host for example a Moodle platform (go to this post to see the minimum inode number a default Moodle installation uses or other software packages like Wordpress or Gallery).

And in the The attack of the inodes post, I, with the help of some very nice visitors of olivetalks, discussed different ways of finding out the number of inodes in your account before their excess made Hostgator pull the plug.

So, surprise surprise, 28+ weeks after those posts… guess what? Check out the next image!

inodes-cpanel

This is an image taken from the cpanel of my Hostgator account. Not only they show the number of inodes you are using,  but they have increased the limit to 250,000 inodes!! I doubt even I will reach that limit…

 

Hostgator, from olivetalks, our most sincere applause.

Now, if I had just stopped myself from erasing those 5,000 emails from my mailbox a few days ago…
