Site Suggestions (and Issues) Thread

[MattWServices]

Will post a sticky at some point tomorrow, however the site will be down for a time on Wednesday morning, 21st Feb at 10:00 GMT. We - well @MattWServices - will be moving the site to a new server.

Apologies this took longer than expected, but the site is now on the new server.

Is it normal for all mew posts in the bike threads to need approval before 'going live'?

Regularly getting page cannot be loaded error when clicking on new posts, loads fine if page is refeshed , (updated version of Google chrome on android phone) clearing cache works for the a few minutes but then back to error page

I see more and more people moving away from social media, that includes younger generations too, there are however parts of it now inbuilt into peoples daily life, into society, whether that be work or social, which I don't see changing anytime soon.

The way I see the forum going, and is kind of part of it, is as an archive and resource for future generations. I feel it does not really matter what changes are made, in the end it will die off with the generations most associated with the subject.

On a happier note, can we have more emojis on the like option, rolling eyes, frowns, that sort of thing

Just wondering if the marketplace / eBay section could have prefixed categories like the for sale section but instead of status, the place / website the item was spotted?

For example FB = Facebook
eBay = EBay
Gum =gumtree
MPlats = Dutch auction site

etc

That would indeed be very handy...

If you hover over any post you can see what site it is listed on without clicking on it.

And we don't get the damn names of the places scattering the New posts/Active posts method of using the site.

Getting full page advert pop ups ( akin to the top banner adverts) every few times i navigate the site.

This is getting quite intrusive.

Anybody else and how do i stop them?
