Tables from old posts are all screwy. http://hmvf.co.uk/topic/36883-daimler-ferret-stowage/?tab=comments#comment-420088 In fact, I can't see a way of adding a table, short of using the insert code option, which may prove to be a security risk. Cheers, Terry I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a solution for that but I'll put it on the list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience with these things it's always better to under-promise and over-deliver. If you think it will take three days then say ten, that way either no-one notices it took longer than you thought or you do it in less than ten and they think you're wonderful. Just one suggestion - could we go to https rather than http to protect passwords etc.? Andy I will add that to the list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferretfixer Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Certainly been a gap in my Daily Checks on the computer! I am not a 'child of the computer age' as such. So I'm confident I, like many others. Will have to learn anew, how to navigate this magnificent Facility. The HMVF! I'm sure that due to the time gap of the forum being 'down'. It took a LOT of work to Produce the new setup/ layout. Well done Joris & 'The Team'! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 10 hours ago, Jessie The Jeep said: Another picture problem I've spotted ( which may be still on the "todo" list ), are pictures hosted on my own webspace. As seen in the attachment, The pictures all seem to be duplicated. I can't edit the post to see what the coding says as to why duplicate pictures. Because I cannot fix this problem I've enabled the option that you can edit your own posts and remove the duplicates whenever you come across them (in your own posts). Not the best solution but it will help a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those hosted on my own space are just showing once. It's a bit of an odd problem, but I'm slowly working through my three vehicle threads, fixing the duplications. It's a bit of a trip down memory lane starting at the beginning of each thread again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I know what caused this, we had to do the import of topics and attachments twice because there were a lot of posts missing after the first try. I will see if I can get the server guys to fix it for all posts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMP-Phil Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) Hi Joris Thanks for all the hard work moving the forum forward. Chaning to a new softward package or operating system is not easy. Now to the problem of adapting from the old layout to the new. Many of us are creatures of habit we look at forum we know where the tab we use all the time are, and may not even remember what it said. So how about a screen shot of the old forum page (tabs in particular) and the new forum page with lines connecting the old function with new function. Now on to enjoying the Forum in its new format. Again thanks Cheers Phil Edited October 12, 2017 by CMP-Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 What I miss is the listing of posts of the last 24 hours, it seems to be replaced with Recently Updated Topics, which is fine if you are popping in several times a day. But if you are checking perhaps just once a day I imagine quite a few posts would fall from being flagged up. Is there perhaps a way to extend Recently Updated to cover a rolling 24 hour period? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what you are looking for the Activity tab, that is an overview of everything that has happened on the forum and you can go back in time as long as you want. http://hmvf.co.uk/discover/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueBelle Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Oh no, the Libya-Tripolitania thread now has no photographs! Where have they all gone? They were there yesterday. Please can this be fixed? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowtracdave Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Do we no longer have photographs on our profile pages or have I just missed the appropriate section in there ? Well done for sorting all this out Joris , maybe Jack will let you go and have a nice lay down in a quiet , darkened room when it's all finished ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughman Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Nice job you and the team have made of the upgrade. Couple of comments. It appears very bright to my eyes, could it do with a tone down? Also Where has the New Posts button gone? Or is it hiding under a new name?

Thanks for the feedback regarding the colors, we will be making some changes to it early next week. The New Posts button is now called "Activity" and is a the top of this page at the tabs.
