New Forum - Problems and Suggestions

Recommended Posts

Dear All

 

On behalf of the hosts and moderators, may I welcome you to our new home :D

 

We really hope the new hosting arrangements and upgraded software will provide a stable and reliable home for the forum.

 

This is obviously a MAJOR change for the forum and initial teething problems will be inevitable, but worthwhile for the long term gain.

 

The new platform and forum software gives us greater flexibility and functionality, which we plan to introduce once the forum has settled down a little, for example the introduction of a chat room.

 

Your patience during this period of upheaval is greatly appreciated.

 

Please use this thread to post any issues or suggestions you have for the forum.

 

Finally, please accept this forum as our krismas present to you all ! :bat:

 

Kind regards

 

 

 

Elefan, Kris, Lufty, Nellie, Baddad and Bid

Hi Kirstie

 

Please do not worry about the change. Over the next few days we will make the forum as similar to the previous one as possible.

 

Kind regards

Lufty,

will the logo be changed as both the blue shades are different?

 

Will an arcade mod be added?

 

 

 

Very quick change over tonight. :D

Just got my first error, while trying to post this on the forum change thread - it said that some files were missing :hypno:

 

Try again...

 

Well, that would explain it. You axed the thread :oops:

 

It's possible to give the person the choice of skins in their CP,rather than just having the default.

 

Ooh ooh ooh! Is this feasable? :pray:

 

Cos (depite earlier postings :whistle: ) I don't like to complain, but to my eye the grey-blue of the new skin isn't as bright and friendly as the turquoise-blue with small splashes of colour (the buttons) of the old one.

:lol:

Had you been gradually transferring the files,or was the complete transfer done tonight?

I have seen transfers and upgrades take over a week to complete,and was not expecting to see Krism back up tomorrow,very good work to all of you. :D

It should be possible,if there isn't already the option in admin CP now,there will be a hack available to turn on the function.

PS whilst posting this I saw that you could add a fast reply, what's the difference from just add reply?

Sorry if thats a dense question. :unsure:

Hi Brook

 

The fast reply is a quick way of replying to forum postings. It gives you fewer options but enables you to post replies quickly.

 

Kind regards

there should be a link from www.krism.org.uk and ww.krism.org.uk/asp

 

Any idea who has had problems?

Ummm :oops: me!

 

And I thought I saw that Suze had a few problems too.

 

BUT, I went into the old forum by my bookmark which took me to a 'login' screen. (my bookmark usually takes me to the Forums page and not the home page)

 

Just thought that if I had problems maybe others would too.

 

Would there be a way of putting a link or a 'We have Moved' note where the old forums used to be? (if you know what I mean)

Looks good - would have been useful to have had an automatic link from the old site but no worries just went via the email instead.

 

Now bookmarked :D

Hey - I'm a Lieutenant too :clap:

 

Poor old Kris he just stays Forum Co-Host - Can't you give yourself another name like President of the AS world!

Hi Everyone

 

We have been busy on this issue and think we have come up with a solution to users bookmarking various parts of the www.krism.org.uk site.

 

Now whenever you try to access anywhere on the www.krism.org.uk site you are redirected to the home page which then re-directs you to the www.asd-forum.org.uk home page after ten seconds.

 

Do not worry if you are confused - We have tested it and it appears to work but please try it for yourself

 

Kind regards
