Default Forums Downtime - New Forum Comments...

Hi

Just to let you know in advance that the Forums will be unavailable for a short time on Tuesday afternoon while we undergo important website maintenance.

Apologies for any inconvenience this will cause.

Thanks
Claire

Thanks for letting us know. It's not a time that I'm usually here, but just occasionally I'm on-line in the afternoon. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

For now, you will only be able to display the Forums properly by changing your settings to the default option.

Please go into User Options at the top left, then under Main Configuration, select the Edit option next to "Display preferences, number of shown topics, languages, colors" .

Under "Which style sheet (skin) do you want to use for your display?", you will need to select "Always use default" and press Submit at the bottom of your page.

Sorry if you have a preferred colour scheme for the Forums but you will need to go with the default option for the time being to view the Forums effectively.

Looking good Claire. Job well done, by all concerned, I'd say.

Managed to get it to work in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer 8, I'm getting "Error 404: Page Not Found
The requested page does not exist on this server" in -->> every <<-- forum.

I've not changed any settings.

Strange...

Once I changed the theme/skin setting to 'Default' I have no major issues in FF, IE, Opera or Chrome.
