Hi Dick, glad you've been able to make it work.

Brian if you continue to have issues please let me know, I will do my best to help. Any additional information you can provide would be useful.

Change, no one likes change even if it for the better, the jury is still out on this one.

[John Pattinson]

Why does it say NOT SECURE on top line of screen with web address, is it just me or have we all got this?

[John Wakefield]

Not on my screen. Its down to your computor and antivius software which does not recognise the web site as being OK, you should be able to change settings somewhere

[John Pattinson]

Thanks John I will leave well alone and live with it!

It's because we serve the pages over http rather than https, as many (most, even) have been for years.

It's just in recent times that web browsers (I think Google have been pioneering this) are displaying which pages would not be secure for sending over your credit card details etc. Soon we will be on https anyway, but for now it's nothing to worry about.

[John Pattinson]

Ok thanks Ian.

I like the new forum, Its its exploding Griffons I don't like

[Brian Catt]

Exploding Griffons is usually caused by not shutting the throttle when airborne!

[Brian Catt]

Getting back to the Forum...I'm not over impressed by the fact that I seem to have to go to "Latest Activity" or "Trending" (whatever that means), or something else, to find the updated posts, when the old layout was very simple to use. Am i doing it wrong?

[John Wakefield]

You are correct Brian, only new threads appear in 'New Posts' but replies to existing threads do not appear
