Re: phpBB Forum Upgrade
Aido, I've just noticed that message notifications don't appear on the board like they used to. Not a problem for me as I always have an email tab open and I get notified that way but others may have a different set up and not know if they receive a message.
I'm on the Light version of the new script btw.
I also wondered if you'd be able to do this....
You mentioned you were trying to find somewhere to place the buttons so I've done a mock up. On the main forum front page these red highlighted text buttons appear but when View New Posts is clicked they disappear leaving a gap in the same place that would make a good spot to repeat the same button script:
Apologies if this is something you're already taking care of, or if my lack of coding experience is shining through and this isn't possible, I just thought I'd make the suggestion.

This would be unrelated to the site upgrade as that sounds like connectivity problemsredsquirrel wrote:just picked up a message from Ade, he cant get on anymore, keeps timing out on him like it did before. any suggestions i can pass on would be gratefully recieved
He could try doing a ping test to hardytropicals.co.uk. Start > run, type Cmd, press enter, type ping www. Hardytropicals.co.uk. If it can't connect it'll say something like destination host unreachable.

Re: phpBB Forum Upgrade
Absolutely fine ( and have even done a mock up wasn't expecting that!) when viewing the forums the link should be there now or so I thiought unless I missed copying the change across to the light theme. I'll have to take a look later as work calls now .GoggleboxUK wrote:Aido, I've just noticed that message notifications don't appear on the board like they used to.

Re: phpBB Forum Upgrade
changing the theme will probably have the same effect to some extent, as least its working
Re: phpBB Forum Upgrade
Apologies if this has been covered: I'm unable to find the QUOTE and EDIT logos on the posts. Is there a different set-up for this that my decomposing brain has not yet found?

this is what i just discovered by changing the theme and back again and the buttons appeared.GREVILLE wrote:Apologies if this has been covered: I'm unable to find the QUOTE and EDIT logos on the posts. Is there a different set-up for this that my decomposing brain has not yet found?
Go into User Control Panel.
Before trying this press CTRL + F5
which should force a manual refresh

Re: phpBB Forum Upgrade
Some people do seem to be saying this but I don't see why as the images are there in place.
All i can advise at the minute is that you try pressing ctrl + F5 at the some time on the keyboard (if on windows) which loads all of the cached items again.
If that doesn't work you can try what cordyman has said which is under 'User Control Panel' > 'Board Preferences' and change the board style to one of the other themes and change it back again.

Re: phpBB Forum Upgrade
aid prob because people have the first version cached on computer before the buttons were uploaded and finished.
