sounds good!
By "service provider", I did not mean hoster. I have no problem hosting the site on the group of servers I am renting anyways, so that aspect is covered.
I am not bent on using Joomla, but I have been looking around for CMSes that could replace Typo3 and found Joomla most promising. Would you tend towards some other CMS?
OMR sounds exciting but quite challenging.
When redoing the site, I would scrap SOAP and replace it with a REST service with JSON.

Ah great - well I'd actually be willing to offer my help where possible, though I can't say I know Joomla. As far as a service provider to host it goes I'd imagine that depends a lot on your specific circumstances - I've only really used AWS and a bit of Azure here and there.
The specific issues I'm having are with not being able to find specific melodies even though I've entered them exactly (but I can find some of them with a Parsons code oddly). I'm also wondering if there mightn't be a way to enhance the database based on some sort of automatically OCR of sheet music found online (imspl etc.). There are also some odd issues with logging in from certain pages, and I can't figure out how to attach meta info to added entries (links to sheet music, recordings etc.)
Oh and I tried using the SOAP interface - took a while to work out how to construct a valid request at all (it appears to be using SOAP 1.0? The wsdl wasn't parseable by any tools I could find) but when I finally did I just got a SOAP error that my credentials were incorrect (I just used my plaintext password).

yes. I plan to migrate the site to Joomla and basically rebuild it. Can you recommend service providers or freelancers that could help with this kind of task?
Having a few issues, just wanted to know if anyone is still looking after this site? Thanks!

How to insert music:
Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.
How to post an audio recording:
If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:
- Record your audio here.
- You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
- copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]
How to mark a thread as solved:
If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
