What has happened to the forum?

I can access the forums without being logged in.


PS My mistake I was just seeing the public areas (unless it was different a few days ago)

 

We have had a forum template issue and several volunteers have been working to get the forum back online and useable. Hopefully as of 11 pm last night the forum is now working correctly, though in a different template. The board is reviewing the forum and templates and will keep members updated on any future changes .
Thank you for your patience while this was happening.

Kind regards,

Jeff

Thanks, Jeff, I know this is not easy to correct and thanks to those who helped put it back to something that is adequate.

I have at last figured out where "REPLY" is hidden - it's now in the "ACTIONS" dropdown! I assume the free version is made to look crappy so you are forced to use a premium one.

To change the template to premium without warning is normal customer service these days, so it seems. They really don't want forums to succeed do they.

Another problem is that this is my third attempt at posting this reply as in the previous two the submit button was off the screen and the scroll bars seem to disappear when I click on reply. Very odd an very worrying.

Just noticed we have lost some more recent pictures.

Hi Peter,

We needed to reset the website back to Wednesday to fix some of the issues that arose and as such anything that was added to the forum may not be there.  I apologise for this but it had to be done.  If you had added photos or threads could you please add them again.

thanks,

Jeff

Can you please give examples.  Screenshots would be best.

Thanks 

Jeff

It seems the loss of the scroll bar is only occurring in "Quick Reply" and now that I have found "Reply" this does have a scroll bar. The attached screen shot shows what I see on reply and if I don't pre-position the last post at the top I can't submit the quick reply. I also noticed that when a spelling error is underlined in that red squiggle, a right hand click only qives me "Paste (Ctrl V)" as an option. Or is that just me? (see second attachment).

 

 

 

Peter,

I have turned off the quick reply until it can be corrected.  I have noticed the same issue with the mispelling.  I need to loock into that issue.

We are working through these issues from scratch.

Jeff
