WELCOME BACK
« on: September 16, 2014, 02:34:26 pm »
Hi everyone.   Sorry for the downtime.


As you can see.... we have upgraded the forum to the new version v2.0.8 which should look and feel a little slicker than the old 10 year old forum.

There are several new features on the forum... I will post up again here to outline them, although they are fairly self explanatory.

I would like to take this time to say a massive thanks to member 'dazza' He has spent hours and hours (and hours) helping me get this forum to a place where we are both happy with its operation. You will also notice that he is now part of the Administration team here, and he will be a great help to the running of this forum.

Hope you enjoy.. and any problems just let us know.


Rich



FEATURES....

For Sale Auto Formatting...

If you venture to the Car Parts or Cars for Sale threads and try and write a post you will notice the following.



Filling it in as appropriate. Selecting collection only will remove the Delivery Cost box.

If anything is missed out then the form will not post.



That results in the below being posted.




Hopefully this will make the FS section much clearer and easier to use.

Just a thought....

Hopefully the new forum software doesn't limit the timeframe in which we can edit. I'm thinking about those threads in particular where the original post needs to be updated over a period of time.

I'm just happy this place is back up and running.  :drinking:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
