Hello Dave, can I bother you with an issue thats been niggling me? If I was to leave this esteemed forum of my own free will (say I was about to kick the bucket) what colour would my name go, and is it the same colour as when you're chucked off for being a twat?

I havnt read through this whole thread as I have toast under the grill, but the mobile site won't navigate through picture embedded links. Like Hertz's posts in the eBay thread. If you switch to OMG USE FULL BROWN VERSION, it works fine. Havnt tried tapatalk, but have tried Safari and Firefogs.

Yo dave, I've started having some weird stuff on the forum over the last 24 hrs. if i click on a link to a page in the forum, pretty much any page, i see it momentarily, then i get this:

 

 

if I then click 'back' on the browser it takes me to the page i wanted to go onto. Is this a problem at my end? i notice that my computer has started using 'Yahoo' as the default search engine too so something has obviously been fannying about with its settings.

[JonnyHS]

Sorry, prolly a stupid question, viewing the site in mobile on android, how do I go to the last post of a thread, rather than having to wade through several pages, cheers.

 

Good question. Me too.

This could be your end,sounds like you have a virus of some sort.

Try running malwarebytes,you can get it free for month i think.

[hairnet]

please can you ask people if theyre quoting wheres theres lots of pics in a post

 

when they quote it - can they delete all the pics when replying as it makes a long thread impossible if 3-4 people quote the post and it show 10+ pics 4 times......

 

please

 

thanks(grump - ish)

 

can be a right pita on the phone etc - my pc is steam powered and doesnt like it (must find hammer)

Sorted it now, some shitty add-on thing had added itself to Firefox, I deleted it and its all working properly again now

Hello, Is there any way to disable the blue mobile site?

I dislike it verily and it replaces the proper brown site on my iPhone every time I turn phone off/on. I have to keep scrolling to the very bottom of some long pages to press the 'full site' click button.

Thanks!

Any idea how to copy & paste into posts?

I am trying to copy text from a Facebook page and add an image I have saved on my laptop. It will paste into Word either using the right mouse button or ctrl-v but won't paste into the window of "create a new thread".

I am not getting any notifications since the update. Is there anything I need to do to reset them?

[daveb47]

I have a problem with Mandrill not forwarding mail.

Will sort it asap.

[daveb47]

See if that works

[The Moog]

Subscribed to a couple of threads and checked the settings and still notifications.

Should be working now

 

Mandrill is playing up yet again,so running straight SMTP till they fix it.

[The Moog]

Works now. Cheers Dave!

Hello. How do I post a new topic? I tried but failed - it was for a Seat Ibiza I saw for sale near me...maybe it was not an interesting enough topic? These are getting rare now I've not seen one for years.

[daveb47]

Just click on "Start New Topic" button

[lesapandre]

Thanks I will try again.

[lesapandre]

Not posted to new topic. I'm using an Android smartphone - could that be the problem - site works ok generally. Great site btw - just come across it.

[daveb47]

Cant help with android,have you tried Tapatalk on it.

[Inspector Morose]

Dave, I see DeeV8 has turned yellow again.

[daveb47]

Too much custard i expect.......

Now sorted.

[lesapandre]

Thanks. Will try taptalk.

Sometimes when you post an image, it will show up in the preview. But then says 'extensions of this type are not allowed.'

It'll be the bit in the middle that makes it grumble.

Cut it down to this:

and you'll be home and dry.

Dave, I've just seen that if I subscribe to Tapatalk Pro, the forums I visit supposedly get a cut of my 77p a month. Is this true?

[daveb47]

I get a payout of about $4.00 every month so suspect it must be.......

[Pillock]

Oooh, four dollars. Where were you planning on retiring to, Barbados?
