Post by theOptom »

Site went down so was restored to a backup from yesterday in case anyone wonders why some posts are missing.

Seems like the site failure has caused the loss of members' previous posts
Pity about that but not the end of the world.....anything can be done to rectify , Boss?

I will be adding some customisations to the forum in the next few weeks, e.g. open links in new window, embed media within posts.

There are lots to choose from. For those interested, if anyone finds something useful from the list in the links below you can let me know here:

No idea hence posting the link for people to check.

Quick reply is done now.

There's this https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/thanks_for_posts

Which seems decent but slightly complicated.

For some reason the Ad tabs don't display properly in mobile. I will look into it.

Probably something in the CSS that doesn't allow the boxes to expand vertically on a display with limited horizontal resolution.
