Club's New Forum Board

[ChrisRLewis]

You may have noticed, there are quite a few changes on the forum.

A new board has been installed. The reason for this is that the previous board stopped doing security updates so there was a security issue. I have also transferred the site to a different hosting company, so we will see if there are improvements. There were a few problems with the board transfer, the new board is not showing the users avatars. I am still trying to get this working, but you can upload a new avatar if you require.

There will be minor changes to the board in the next few days so be prepared for a few down times.

Other than that the board is working, if you find any bugs or problems please post here.

The board looks great Chris, great job!

[ChrisRLewis]

Thanks for the thumbs up!

I for one do not like change but this was a necessity. I hope to add the Garage Section and all the other bits when I get the time.

One problem is a log on problem with Internet Explorer, keeps log in off. Firefox seems ok though? Need some feedback if you are having problems with IE?

I am trying to work on a fix, it's due to adjustments I am making with the cookie settings. Internet explorer is another type of problem and that's not a simple fix. I am going to change the url which may take a few hours to have affect. It should cure the cookie problem. The new forum url will now be http://fiat126clubuk.freepgs.com/ until I can sort things out.

Works like a charm now....
