The new website - A failure or success.

No. of posts per page changed to 15 - was set at 6.
Hopefully this will make it easier to follow the disucssions per page, rather than having to keep hitting the "next" button.

Michael - increasing the number of posts per page certainly makes for easier reading - good one.

However I can still not update my profile - as I mentioned earlier it complains about the space in my username. I don't mind adding an underscore or whatever, but I am afraid that if I change my username now I will lose all my history on this site.

sorry, I missed that point John.
i've removed the space in your username now.
next time you log in, use "JohnMurphy" as your username and the same password as you normally use.
hopefully it will work ok for you.

if you want a - or a _ in there instead, just let me know.
only takes a few seconds to change.

Michael,

I arrived into work this morning to find notification emails in my mailbox.
I am now able to update my profile, since you removed the space from my username.
All in all a result - thanks for your efforts Michael, appreciated.

Spaces in usrnames was a completely unforseen setback to Fireboard that was not known untill the migration happened, and some users had complaints! Sorry about that John, I thought this was pointed out in a thread a while ago... :blush:

I must say, I did find the old e-mail notification of new topics very useful. You could see straight away when there was something of interest. I really like the layout of the new site. I've worked with PHPBB before but not fireboard. Is there not a 'New topic Notification' mod for fireboard?

It does seem that traffic is slower on the new site alright. I'd say the new topic notification would go a long way to rectifying this.
