Site Issues over the past few days

Post by Frosty » Thu Jul 12, 2018 10:08 pm

Hi Everyone,

as you are aware the site has been down for a few days.

In simple terms our ISP did an upgrade which was not compatible with our old forum software.

Dazza has done a fantastic job of bringing the site back up again.

The reason for the change in 'look' as the forum is now running off a more modern version of software and our old 'style' no longer works.

I am sorry for the inconvinience, there was a real worry that it wouldn't be recovered at all.

Have a good weekend and let's hope a great season for Town lays ahead.

Cheers Dave

Many thanks Dave and Dazza for your hard work in getting things back, it would have been a catastrophe to have lost the old place in such circumstances, it's made me realise how much you bloody miss it !! Your a star mate.

Probably crashed due to the English greeting about another World Cup failure. National grid must have burned out or something.

In all seriousness Yes it's good to have it back but the new design will take a bit of getting used to.

You can't see online users at any time like before ? How do I go about changing a password also.

No need to apologise Dave. I “ thank you” so much for continuing to fund this forum. I think we’d all miss it if you didn’t keep it going.

Ps Can’t wait for the new era to begin at FPF ......COYB’s

How can you amend your location, tried extensively to find the correct area but to no avail. It's not within any user profile.

I may be wrong for many people, Saint, but I’ve personally adopted the mindset that no gives a flying f*ck about my location. Just forget it, buddy, especially if you’re “extensively” trying to change it. Seems like a waste of time.

Well done on the work! Once my head stops spinning and ADD calms, I should be okay!

I'm in Swansea Bay, South Wales right now. Interesting place..

When this trip is over will try again to amend settings but as mentioned maybe a futile endeavor.
