Installed an ad-serving plugin this morning. Will play with it probably later tonight so bear in mind if you see anything weird happening. Will try to keep it all as un-obtrusive as possible.
Changed âfull nameâ to not appear. So now your full name shouldnât appear anywhere, just username.
Playing with amazon ads right now. Reply if itâs too obtrusive and will try to tone it down.
Ahhhhh⌠DARK MODE.
Thatâs better.
In dark mode, the text in the banner at the top is completely out of sight.
Perhaps a subtle colour would be better. Does make it âsuitable for workâ though.
Add: Not sure I like being corrected on my spelling of the word âcolourâ with the spell check option.
I am assuming that it is preferring to spell in US English rather than UK.
I feel quite strongly about the difference between UK and US spellings.
@Mush there isnât a spellcheck in the forum software, I think itâs your browser doing that. Check your browser settings and turn it off.
This is what I see. Try logging on in private browser/incognito/safe browsing mode to see if itâs a cached image. This is work lurk dark though. I think dark mode yeah it will probably not show as I didnât change the logo yet.
On that note I do have to re-do all the logos. Takes time and is boooooooring to do.
Sorry.
Spell check does in fact appear to be under the control of my star spangled Windows.
No worries bud
Shame I couldnât get this working before the site went up as it will save a load of grief signing up: you can now use Instagram to (sign up and) log in.You will still need to register an email address though.
For those of you that have already made accounts, donât try to sign up again with your instagram account as youâll just create another forum account. Also I donât think it will allow you to sign up with same email address twice.
This is mainly a benefit for new users coming from Instagram, or lurkers who havenât posted yet.
Wallop.
