The Forum is Back!
« on: November 19, 2015, 01:59:57 PM »
I am glad to say that the forum is up and running again!

The new board is the latest version, so it's all a bit different. Some of the updates haven't yet been completed but I am working on them gradually.  There are a few dead links, tapatalk is not yet functioning, subscribers section is down and a few other bits and pieces.

Some of the members avatars went missing during the transfer, if your avatar is missing, please feel free to add another one.

Great work Chris, seemed smooth enough! I know how much of a pain CMS's can be!

Thanks for the kind words :)
There is currently a new problem, the home page (portal) is not loading, but the forum board seems to be running fine..
So there maybe a bit of downtime over the next few days.. :(

Excellent work, Chris, it looks really smart. Just one question: I see the size limit for attached photos is still 82KB, but some folks post pictures in-line in the post - how does that work? I have tried using the 'insert image' button but I cannot see where I go from here - how do I tell the editor which image I want to insert, and what is the size limit on such an inserted image ? (I've searched the forum for instructions without success, other than using links to Photobucket and similar external web-based libraries - what I want is to insert an image that resides locally on my hard drive).

Thanks

I had to remove the new image uploading option because it was causing a few problems, hopefully a similar image uploading option will be added soon..

What's the problem? are you referring to uploading an avatar?

Yes, exactly, while trying to upload a new avatar my browser (Opera) says the Connection was closed by the server. Ill try uploading the avatar to other site and then using the URL ill put it in my profile to see if it works.
