Ooh, nice one, that's good to know, it can be a right PITA.

Same with Twitter. Paste the link and you get the dot jpg followed by :large, which is not helpful.

 

I have noticed that one of the garage icons isn't working, below people's avatars. View Garage is fine, but the icon on the left shows a broken picture link. Meant to mention this ages ago...

My England flag has turned into some weird Picture?

[KruJoe]

No, it's a Union Jack now.

[fred]

Ahhh, Very good! flying the flag again!

Is there any way we can add a wiki of some sort to the site? There's a massive amount of knowledge on here, but also a lot of new members who ask similar questions (and old members) - buying guides, diesel pump questions and whatnot.

[daveb47]

I will look into it in morning.

[HMC]

How do I change my username/ display name? I've been meaning to for ages but can't find it in th settings section?

[daveb47]

settings/display name.

[HMC]

Hi Dave I don't seem to have that on the side bar thing....

[daveb47]

Tell me what name you want and i will sort it.

Is there no way the full view can be made to work on Opera Mini? It was fine before the upgrade and it worked with the upgrade before the bells and whistles were added. The mobile view is very difficult to use, there are no page numbers or quote button so I often reply to a post and find out there are three pages before my reply.

 

I tried Tapatalk and found it too much of a resource hog.

[Asimo]

Attempting to view any thread from the index -WITHOUT LOGGING IN -  and I get this

 

 

Log in and all is normal.

 

Not had this occur before today

 

(Windows  7)

[daveb47]

I will check it out.

[daveb47]

Found problem to be Similar Topics hook so disabled it for now.

Will be upgrading board software later so will debug hook at same time

[daveb47]

Forum now upgraded to ipb 3.4.8

 

Think hook problem is fixed but any errors please let me know

[Richard]

I'm still getting a blank page for the first page of any thread, except it's now happening in mobile view as well as full view. I have installed an old version of Tapatalk and that seems to be working ok.

[daveb47]

Is anyone else getting this??

Not me.

[Loathecliff]

Dear mr. admin Sir, I admit I am thick and please me for not wading through 200+ posts: how do I list my current fleet please?

Can't see 'sig'; 'vehicles' doesn't seem to be 'it'. What have I missed? Thxs

[Loathecliff]

Edit (not allowed to yet) sorry: 'vehicles ' should be 'garage'.

[Lacquer Peel]

Y0, I think some iteration of autoshite stopped people from being able to quote 300 pictures in a post, is it possible to bring that back?

[Skizzer]

^ Is it also possible to automatically redirect someone who starts another bloody thread about new Kias, Hyundais or MGs to Pistonheads please?

[mouseflakes]

Hi Dave - I can't see the 'Display Name' option in my user settings page. Anything I need to do in order to activate this option? Cheers!

[daveb47]

It was disabled ages ago as it was getting difficult to keep up with who was who.

If you want name change just let me know and i will sort it for yoyu

You can chuck in "This Week's 3-Series Iteration" in there too. 

 

Will stop posting inappropriately now and go back into my hole.

I'd rather not be known a 'yoyu' thanks Dave, so I'll stick with my old name for now. 

[AlabamaShrimp]

Is there anyway the file size of the pics for the garage can be made bigger than 650k? I don't have anything to resize them on my phone (which is my main computer) and I'm far to lazy/stupid to workout another way of doing it

[chaseracer]

Apologies if I'm being dim, but how do I change a thread title?

[Richard]

Edit the first post.
