You may have noticed that the forum has a new look and feel. That is because we have updated it to the latest version of the forum software. Over the next few days there will be additional changes to the look and feel, but none of your postings will be impacted.

Enjoy.

Hi guys

Thanks for working on this.

A little bigger print might be nice for us old guys.

Thanks for taking the time to provide a new look. One thing I have noticed is every time I press the blue Roverlanders logo for a refresh I get sent to the main web page not just a refresh of the forum page which means I get multiple windows openning until it locks up..
Cheers
Ted

I think with the new software upgrade I can enable you to change font an other settings to your own preferences. I’ll let you know soon.

Change is bad, leaving the trees was the first big mistake... or maybe it was the ocean?

Ted,

Re clicking on the logo. You are correct. In the past it was hard coded to bring you back to the forum list. Now it takes you to the Rover-Landers home page. This is by design. If all you want to do is to go back to the FORUM home page, select the Board Index, under the header image.

Note:

When adding links to posts, always include the "http://" or "https://" at the start of the link.
Just entering a link like "www.mypage.ca" may not work correctly.
It should always look like "http://www.mypage.ca" for the software to correctly decode and open the link.
