Great so far Chris

One thing though - Cant update profile.  I saw that you had plans to incorporate AIM into the site and went to add my AIM name to my profile.  Error is "must insert email address," though no area to insert it into.  Just a heads up.

Edit this one pal: Well I played some more.  It seems you can edit your profile by going through the control panel, however you cannot edit if you go through the main page.  Down on the bottom left, it says "view profile" "edit profile" etc.  The "edit profile" doesn't work there, but again, does through the control panel.

Oh yes, that's also on the to-do list. I'll work on that in a few minutes if I can get my computer to work correctly. >smile.gif>

Very nice, i like it alot.
Maybe lower the minimum characters in the search to 3 instead of 4?
i.e., twm, trd, hub...

I never knew how much time i actually spent here, im glad its back up!

Unfortunately, because of the way the database indexes are created, three letter words don't work in the search, even if I lower the minimum word length to three. Rebuilding the indexes may be possible, but it would slow down the site I'd think. I'll look into it though.

I just noticed that it doesnt show how many VIEWS a thread has... I liked seeing how many people have viewed my threads, could we bring that back?

EDIT: Not too big, but I liked when I used to click on a member's name and it took me straight to their profile. Now it takes me to some other page, then theres another button that says view their profile. >smile.gif>

I have to log in every time from work, but at home its fine...i'll try deleting cookies and starting over.

That didnt work, IDK whats goin on at my work computer.

And mark this forum as read, not there anymore, not a biggie probably the only one who uses it.

Well, by 2005, those pics will be changed...//2004 just won't be cutting it anymore. >biggrin.gif>

What do you mean by logos? And I do have plans to change up some of the smilies.

I plan to put the view back in. People seem to like that. >wink.gif>

If you click the profile icon, rather than the user's name, you go straight to their 6GC.net profile with the Celica info and such. I should replace the person on that icon with a wheel or something...

It's possible that it's cookie settings on the server-side. I'm going to mess with those soon and see if I can get all the bugs worked out.

The comments were removed because they were too hard to moderate, unlike the forums, where management is always at. I noticed a lot of mean and inappropriate comments, and people would sometimes have comment wars and I'd have to go in and remove stuff...just too much of a hassle.

And someone else mentioned the "mark this forum as read" link too...I'll have to add that back in at some point. >smile.gif>



Man do I love multi-quoting. It makes this so much easier! >biggrin.gif>

just click user posted image on the posts that you want to show up in your reply then press add reply. You know that quote is selected if the quote icon looks like this user posted image. If you just want to reply to a single post you press user posted image instead of user posted image.

After hours and hours of slaving away on my computers, I think the site is ready to be released to the public, and that's why you're seeing it now. >biggrin.gif>

As you can probably tell, the forums look a bit different. They're upgraded to the new version of Invision Power Board, which brings lots of new features. Most notable is probably the multiple quote system...see that quote icon on the top right of this post? Click it and it selects this post to be quoted when you hit the reply button at the bottom. Select multiple posts and you get multiple quotes. >smile.gif>

Also new is a bunch of new features that you guys will discover. >biggrin.gif>

And the forum skin appears to be a bit buggy, but that's being worked out.

Let me know what you guys think, and if you have any problems, please do post and let me know...it's the only way they'll get fixed. >biggrin.gif>

To Do List

  • Re-incorporate the location and AIM screen-name advanced search fields into the members' rides advanced search form
  • Allow editing of pending how-to articles
  • Re-incorporate the AIM icon into posts made by users with an AIM screen-name
  • Re-incorporate Celica info('94 Celica ST, for example) under users' names
  • Fix lots of skin/visualization issues

The thing I get confused about is that the newbs just sit at their comps and go through page after page after page of the forums... They must spend alot of time.
