Next stop, domain transfer.
Cannot seem to get anyone on the chat that will resolve the current issue I am experiencing. The first part was the PHP update issue. That took 3x tries. Finally, that was updated but the remainder of the request seems to have been ignored. Server settings assistance required. Ticket #941908 and #940802. Then went to chat to try to speed things up, that was promising in the beginning only to go silent for an extended period of time. Next stop, domain transfer.
