Hi,

We seem to have lost all the previous website improvement suggestions. Are these recoverable ?

Ken Hume

Look for the arrow, seventh line down.

I just broke out the barn survey thread, awkwardly, I admit.

Something seems amiss with the new thread, though. There are no buttons for "reply" etc.

I see a place to reply.

Right below the last post.

AND I see a little reply button at the bottom right of your post.

Maybe "new" thread means the moved thread? I don't see any buttons either ...

Maybe that thread is locked because this is the TF Website Improvements thread?

I have the buttons in this thread, but not in the "moved" thread.

Hi Joel,

I just posted a note in OFF TOPIC and immediatley went back to edit a blooper but got the message "This post can no longer be edited because the maximum edit time has expired."

What is the maximum edit time ?

Regards

Ken Hume

This was a test.

Forum permissions to edit failed over the weekend.

I have filed the support report, and await salvation.

Settings for edit time are 99,999 minutes.

I just tested to see if I could edit a post that I created this morning and it had an edit button there, but says my time has expired.
So hopefully the support report will solve this problem, when it comes in....
Thanks for moving the edit time up....

test edit

Hi everyone:

Good remarks and solutions Joel!!

I also experienced problems editing tonite (monday) when I tried to use the edit button on a post that I had just posted it immediately said that my edit time had expired, I have never experienced this problem before everything always seemed to work well as far as the edit button was concerned.

NH

I believe that the edit function has been restored.

Please test and report.

Hi Joel,

Nope !

I have tried all my recent posts and will also try this one immediately upon posting.

Ken Hume

Hi Joel,

Time expired message after 30 seconds.

Ken, it looks like at least the administrator has had his editing permissions restored.

I'll get to work on the rest of you.

Hi everyone

I am just putting a note in here that as of 9pm wed evening my edit button still is not functioning properly yet, it sure is not the end of the world but it is nice to rearrange posts immediatly upon submitting them should there be an error of some nature.

Thanks Joel for all your effort!!

THIS IS AN ATTEMPT TO TEST THE POST EDIT FEATURE. CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?

Please test the edit feature.

It works for me as of 20080612 1551h gmt-4

I still cannot edit my post(s) made last week. I haven't tried editing a new post.

can't edit new ones either!

I am unnable to eddit my posts as wel

20080613 10:08 still not working

I also have trouble finding this and was somewhat confused in that the - Barn survey section - did not seem to have been broken out rather the whole thread seemed to have jumped to off topic -

Much wind having fallen out of its sails - though some obvious good has come of the discussion.

Speaking of off topic - would it be reasonable to ask if the picture of the week thread which fomerly sat in the admin section be moved to - Off Topic - Now that I'm home I have some pics of a bridge I visited to put up, and it seems to make sense to keep adding rather than starting anew.

Ok evryone, I think this meens we all just half to take eXtra care when posting, check your speling over and make shure you ain't used no proper laguege.
it cood turn into a grate lessen in pashents for us all.
(oh, crape, ispelled that last one wrong me thinks...)

I would also like to see Will's postings of bridges and experiences as well. He definetly spent a lot of his time contributing and the value of this forum would benefit from being able to access those posts.

Joel,
sorry for misspelling your name in a previous post, I know it's McCarty. If only we could edit.

anyway...
Can we get the link to the new TF Wiki posted on the main forum page? (forgive me if it's already there and I've missed it).

It's a hassle to have to search for it. And new members who haven't seen the earlier post won't even know it exists.

I m not quite ready to release the wiki to the public.

I am excited that you are using and enjoying it.

Look for a full release (and fanfare in Scantlings) within the next two weeks.

Hi Don,

Can I suggest that you navigate to the TFWiki then set this place as a "favorite" in your browser. That should take you back effortlessly every time till the new set up comes into being.

I note that a post has just been made on the CF website praising the TFGWiki and encouraging the Carpenters Fellowship to follow this example.

Thanks be to Mr. McCarty !

Regards

Ken Hume

Yes, good advice on the favorites strategy. Guess I'm a lazy surfer... looking forward to the new digs and to "going live."

Three cheers for Mr. McCarty!

And I think Ken needs to be promoted to moderator!
