Forum Bugs

[brynmor]

Not a bug, but need to add people to their respective groups: Club members & Committee groups.

On the main Forum page, the https://a40farinaclub.co.uk/newforum/index.php link does not work - one has to copy & paste in order to access the forums. Please fix this. (Ironically, neither does the text colour choice work I tried replicating the red link from the main Forum page but it didn't 'take'. Please fix this, too.)

Fixed

I'm on it Keith. I put that link in yesterday, but for some reason it won't go "live". Done this before and was ok. I've just emailed Brynmor.

Right, i'll add the threads you've quoted Mike, that's the easy bit ! ( Thanks ).
I'll copy your request to Brynmor, i won't be able to alter the actual page set-up.
Deletion on way..........

[Keith Bennett]

Sadly, Mike, when Brynmor was moving the old site over to the https one he managed to lose the entire forums including all the committee discussions and the rest of the content. This site is pretty well completely empty for the present. We're still hoping he may have made some sort of back-up before embarking on the "upgrade" but it doesn't look likely.

dont know if this is fixed yet but have to copy and paste to go on forum ?? oh and still have no avatar but up loaded one but still not there

Fixed bugs

1. Link from main site to these forums now turned into an active button.

2. Added Q and A spam prevention - there have been a number of Russian spam bots signed up today whom I have deleted.

3. Posters should now be able to delete their own posts - the "limit on deleting time" now set to zero.

I realise that K .I'm just trying to jog my memory re pages /sections whatever are now missing eg downloads.
Also why do we need a password to view Trevors UCE13 pages.
