Welcome to the end of April! Wow that went amazingly fast.

Spring is a great time to renew some interest in long term projects after the cold of winter has begun to shift to warmer days, yet still cold enough to be chilly in the mornings and evenings.

Some really exciting stuff has happened at eWillys over the past month and its still work in progress, so Thank You to everyone for the encouraging comments.

EVENTS

There are so many events this spring to get out and meet other Willys folks, we will be putting them back to the top of the list often, please support one of these events and the great Vendors that help put them on with sponsored give aways, shirts and covering all sorts of hidden costs.

A lot of personal time is put into these events and adventures, if able please support them and get out and enjoy the time together.

It can also be a stressful time for some folks, maybe this is your first time attending an event and you have questions on the best route, is there trailer parking, is it pet friendly…, if you post up any comments we will try our best to make sure there is contact info for you or try to direct you to the correct forum who is running the event.

Typically most events someone we know is tied into one of the many great Forums that support our hobby, so lots of help out there to get you to and from the events as stress free as possible.

This does not give you a free pass to skip some really basic service and safety checks prior to departing on your adventures, be safe out on the roads and take the basic precautions and safety checks so you can enjoy your day.

WEBSITE UPDATES

The site now has a secure SSL version, I recommend you update your bookmarks to the HTTPS version of the site, I will ask about if there is a something further we need to do to force that over. But if you notice the “NON SECURE” notice at the top of the page on your browser you are most likely on the plane vanilla HTTP version.

We have fixed the site email!!!!!!!! This is really exciting, I get it some wont get it but having a cPanel goes such a long way to getting things moving along. I don’t know what most of the cPanel stuff is or does and you can break a site fairly easily, but so far I have learned a lot of new stuff along the way.

info@ewillys.com is able to be used to reach out to us and we will be updating the contact us forms.

We are working on cutting over the Ads to a new account so expect some new Ad’s to appear, I think 30 or 40 ads per page should do pretty well, pop ups and all sorts of click things that open even more ads, is going to really up our game. (hopefully everyone gets the Sarcasm), but it will be very similar to how it was working before, but the new version will need some tweaks I’m sure to get them to balance out properly.

There is work going on for some of the older posts related to some folder permissions, so we know about it, you are welcome to let us know, we have all negative comments on auto delete so keep them coming.

EDIT 4/29/25 6:00PM EST: Looks like we got all the photos of the old posts working Dave provided the feedback on the main issue and the Host worked up some steps to fix it, then I took a leap did a back up and made the updates to the SQL where the issue resided. It looks like we got it. Thanks for moving forward with us! It may not even be visible to the user but that one fix is huge on the quality of the preservation of the information, it was a little fix that improves the site that much more with less broken parts.

VENDORS

Any vendors who we had on the site before please reach out to us, send us the webpage and the small photo you want us to use so we can put you back up on the site. There is no charge for this, we know most of you, but please reach out and remind us of what you would like us to link too!

I plan on reaching out to folks when time permits and we have a stable environment to provide the links to people.

Thanks to everyone for supporting eWillys,

Tim
