Well if you have been around today you will know that we have had some major upgrade work done.

Everything seems to be working ok, but if you do have problems PLEASE let me know as it might be something important. I would rather it be a false alarm that you not bother to tell me.

Your profile will look different and you also have the option to have a photo album and green members can create groups for chat, some other members can join in these chats.

You can add 'tags' to posts, which help search engines :thumbsup:

I have an option to add a message that will appear when you log in at the top of the Forum, it might not be often but worth looking out for as they will carry very important information. :thumbsup:

Trial and error will be the way to work out how to do things :) You can also use FAQ

Sadly we did lose a few posts from 11.30 to close down time at around 12.30 - apologies for that, hope they were not too important but it was a case of better to lose a few than have a major problem later. If you sent a private message around that time it might have been lost too.

Thanks Pauline

Another new feature is the ability to share threads on Facebook, Twitter and other sites.

At the bottom or threads in public areas you can click on links to share :thumbsup:

Ideal if you see something that you want to share with all your friends on FB or Twitter especially :thumbsup: (only works in public areas, not member areas, those cannot be shared)

Things don't look any different at first glance but you will see your profile looks different if you go in there and there are also new features such as having photo albums and discussion groups. :)

No you are misunderstanding. It will just give a link to the thread, something which someone could have done before, simply by copying the url and pasting.

It is nothing to worry about. I often do it when there is something important to share, such as a thread about a competition or a thread with a freebie :)

This will just do it in one click without copying and pasting.

Goes right over my head, too technical :blush:
But thank you Pauline anyway, love this forum.

Yes I think its working call in the 12yo not sure what she has done
