The Eggcorn Forum and the Eggcorn Database are currently in the process of being converted into static sites.

Once the conversion is complete, all existing posts are expected to still be accessible at their original URLs. However, no new posts will be possible.

Feel free to comment on the relevant forum threads.

Future of the Eggcorn Database and Eggcorn Forum

If you haven’t seen the thread in the “Soapbox” forum here: https://eggcorns.lascribe.net/forum/vie … hp?id=7470 , I invite you to read it. In it, David Tuggy raises the question of the current and future state of the site, and I chime in with additional informations and some options.

Since then I have run the question by a few more people. Based on the responses I’ve received (or the absence thereof) I am thinking that the best way forward at this stage is to a) back up all existing content and b) convert both the forum and the ECDB into static sites, preserving all URLs. I would also at this time move it to a better hosting provider, which should help with stability. However, this would be the end of new posts or entries.
