Maverick Martin Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) I have started this thread to be used as an area where you can test and use/learn the new forums features. Click, post, like, edit upload photos/files whatever you like. A virtual pint awaits the person that comes up with the best new feature Edited December 13, 2017 by Maverick playing Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got in from work and could do with one to help me sleep!!! 👍👍 Maverick Martin and Oli 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 hi oli, enjoying the new layout of the site, only question is the catch report viewer going to be on the homepage ?, I quite like the fact of logging in on a Monday and seeing all the recent catches from the weekend all in one place. sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coddy Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 I have noticed that your private message inbox has a limit of 200 messages so some people may need to have a clear out of old messages from time to time Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've upgraded that to 1000 messages for Club Members. Can anyone remember if we used to have ads on these forum message pages? On each message page I could put a feed of other recent posts (say 10) so that people can just click the next new topic without having to go back to the forum directory if we think that's a good idea?

Maverick Martin Posted December 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Hi Oli We used to have ads within the posts 1 only after the first post +adds on the right hand side of all main pages. The forum feed sounds like a nice feature Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oli Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Thanks Martin, have added ad and topic feed to the RHS of the page. One thing which would be nice is if we could get an updated news item and photo for the front page if there's a willing volunteer out there...
