whats manage attachnents ?

why is the price such a secret

i am sure it was one of these that sold in the basil southgate collection recently there was also a military new/recon crated engine in the sale 711M block it was reputed to be ex RN but their listing calls it a WESSEX is there a connection wessex/dorset

here we go again whats a screenshot is that what models do for a portfolio i googled it and it said something about data on the screen and i have also never heard of the condense button or expanded. once again people of a slightly younger era assume everybody is computer literate bit like i cannot walk around talking to a phone in my ear

A 'default' is the standard setting for something. So... when it says 'the default list order' it means that this is the standard setting for  how the posts are listed: it shows the newer posts first.

It is unfortunate that words often have more than one meaning.

So what exactly is confusing? What parts are difficult to read? The team is working hard to make the forum work in its new format, and they seem to respond well to specific comments.

as i said some of us old folk 68years are not that computer literate a lot of words have been hijacked and now have different meanings all my school years i was taught in imperial measurement they threw me out and changed to metric measurement but i know how many pennies are in a pound and dont cross my sevens and the middle is the center

The best I can see is this:

Click the big HMVF main logo graphic top left

At the top right of the white background below the search box, you should see Unread Content

Click this and the topics with content you have not read will be listed.

The default list order is newest first but you can change that to oldest first. The right hand item of the boxes just above the first item is Sorting. Change this to oldest first. Initially for me nothing happened until I pressed key F5 (top row of keyboard) to reload / refresh the page.

At the bottom of the list is Load More Activity

Eventually you will have the last updated topic at the bottom of the page.

The other boxes in the row above the first listed topic have selection / filtering options I have not investigated.

 

For each topic you can go to the first entry you have not read by clicking the small green dot between the larger coloured circle containing either a letter ( default) or the profile image if the thread starter has uploaded one to their profile and the title of the topic.

This function is not obvious at all. I discovered it by accident when randomly the mouse pointer was hovering over the dot.

 

This is just what I have found. Maybe someone else will detail other options that will help both of us.

why does everybody who is computer literate presume everybody else is computer literate i have read this load of gobbledegook four times and am none the wiser and whats a default i thought a default was some kind of penalty

I've just signed into the new website for the first time and can't find any of the forums. Please help!

your not the only one wheres the instructions come back all is forgiven

this started with shermans and high value vehicles fair enough but a ben hur give me a break! it has turned into a fashion trend :yawn:

i really can not see what the secret is even a rough guide would be helpful i do not want to ring people up whilst they are having dinner just to get a price. also when i advertise vehicles i would not consider leaving out the price i have nothing to hide and at least give people a guideline to what i would like to achieve there is a diamond t on milweb now i quite fancy but guess what ?

Couldn't agree more NOS in today's digital world some forget that you can actually talk to someone and isn't part of the fun striking the deal :dancing:?.... with the proviso that you are not just one of those strange breed wasting the sellers time by having no intention of buying at any price..... if his price is way off the market rate he will have to put up with the wasted contacts.

So don't be shy step up and have a wack at the coconut or "none for the dumb" as me old Mum used to say.

how much

looking at a ben hur on milweb but no price this seems to be a trend i really can not work this out whats the the secret one of the main bits of information is missing

dodge 3/4 ton gearbox bought many years ago for spare but never used nice condition turns smoothly and engages gears nicely no guarantees sold as seen £450 harwich essex 07869 120129 GEARBOX SOLD THANK YOU

this guys good and cheap and i know he collects regularly in norfolk and gets all over the country but he is only 3.5 ton i think? Neil QS Logistics 07821 089599

plus 20% vat no price just 20% of what? :yawn:

anyone know how much that explorer is on milweb the one with no price :-X

you are 40 miles from from halesworth but next time give MRA transport a chance google their website richard is a real nice guy and its always best if an outgoing or return load is near home

the wife tells me AFS bedford RL just came up on facebook running driving £1500 dagenham essex i know its not military but ! look for roy knapp on facebook 07399 600354 i just aint got the room be quick

if i started from square one i would check the basics the heads been off whats the firing order never mind dwell and degrees try pulling a few leads while its ticking over see if it improves think middle of desert with no tools

i bow to your technical knowledge but i bought a jimmy from somebody that times up multibanks ( 5 dodges) drove it for 15 miles untill it gave up got recovery home next day was baffled untill i saw the frost on the base of the carburettor i had seen it before the firing order was wrong swapped two leads and it purred it was timed as a bedford not a gmc also i went to kent to buy a command car the vendor took me for a road test which was good but it ran like a dog when we returned i raised the bonnet and swapped two leads then he mentioned the two traders that were there the day before

hello iain yes nice guy told me he took his H licence in a mates 432 so he could legally load tracked vehicles but the way to his heart is a bacon butty;)

nobody has mentioned the firing order

i bought a command car earlier in the year but have not had much chance to look at it. it has a big radio in the back and the ceramic on the aerial base is like a flying saucer the plate on the firewall shows 19 not 29 and it has a winch can a wc58 have a winch and a 19 body number or is it just a wc57 reconnaissance with a radio. also at some stage something substantial had been mounted on the top of front passenger wing with 8 bolts just intrigued
