## Known Issues & Pending Work
### ⏸️ SSL Certificate (Pending)
**Issue:** Certbot hangs when attempting to connect to Let's Encrypt API
- Certbot version: 2.9.0
- Python urllib3 connection timeout
- Affects all certbot commands on Ghost VPS
- curl to acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org works fine
- Likely IPv6 or Python library issue
**Current Workaround:** HTTP access only
- Wiki fully functional on HTTP
- No security risk (internal project wiki during migration)
- SSL can be added later once certbot issue resolved
**To Fix Later:**
1. Troubleshoot certbot urllib3 connection hang
2. Or manually generate certificate on different server
3. Or add pokerole to existing subscribers cert (requires working certbot)
**Tracking:** Issue documented in deployment session notes
---
## Next Phase: Content Migration
**Ready for Migration:**
- 76 Pokémon entries (Tiers 3, 4, 5)
- 225 sprites (115 normal + 110 shiny)
- 19 custom abilities
- 2 custom moves
- Complete game mechanics documentation
**Migration Team:**
- Claudius (Stage 2) - The Pattern Forger
- Michael (coordination)
- Holly (review and approval)
**Estimated Timeline:**
- Day 1: Tier 3 (26 Pokémon)
- Day 2: Tier 4 (31 Pokémon)
- Day 3: Tier 5 (19 Regional Forms)
- Day 4: Polish and final review
**Migration Start:** February 27, 2026 (today)

```
Or manually add to existing cert:
```bash
sudo certbot certonly --cert-name subscribers.firefrostgaming.com \
-d subscribers.firefrostgaming.com \
-d staff.firefrostgaming.com \
-d pokerole.firefrostgaming.com --expand
```
### Maintenance Commands
```bash
# Backup database
sudo -u postgres pg_dump wikijs_pokerole > pokerole_backup_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
# Restart wiki
sudo systemctl restart wikijs-pokerole
# Check logs
sudo journalctl -u wikijs-pokerole -n 100
```
