Missing threads?

[TTM]

It seems the forum update saw recent posts/threads disappear...?

I’m lead to believe that it’s all in hand and should update as we go along.

I clicked on the “Filters” box at the top right above the list of forum topics, left all the other boxes blank and selected “Descending” and it seems to have put the topics back in order of most recent activity.

The forum is not working properly, I can post on an existing thread but cannot create a new one. We need the IT dept. to sort it out. but how do I contact them?

Hi Gerry,

There are a good many anomalies, since the change over, which are being worked through. There is a thread in "Getting the most from the forum ... " that people are posting the issues they are experiencing. If you go to that, if this hasn't been reported (I think it has as I think I have raised it) then post it there.

Try here

Hope this helps.

To post a thread in the 944 section ...

- Top left corner of this page ... click on the three horizontal lines
- Select Forum
- Select 944
- Top right of the page that then opens you will have a red box to create a new thread

Yeh, nah. Doesn't work for me. And you don't have the three lines on the PC.

It does need to be sorted though as, aside replying to an existing thread, starting a new thread is the main interaction on a forum. It needs to be obvious and easy.

Same here, I can mark as read or watch but can't create a new post.

I've also pinned this post to the top until things get resolved - should hopefully make it easier for Andy to track as I can imagine he must be beavering away like crazy behind the scenes.

Is it me where's the 944 Technical Sub section gone, surely there should be a subsection under the 944 tab so using a Macbook Air and chrome it doesn't appear a choice tab on the main 944 forum ?

It's there on my PC using Chrome. Obviously your Macbook hates you. I get that with my PC quite a lot.

So Forum IT support Mac users the "sub sections" show 944 tabs again and NOT tabs for technical etc....... can it be looked into I'm missing out on functionality to the run of the mill pc users

I wouldn't be surprised to find it's an access control issue and you don't have the right level of access to view those forums. I note that in the panel where your avatar is displayed you don't have the blue box showing "member" so maybe, like me, you're not a PCGB member but what was previously known as a "Guest of the club"?

..... that be it!!
