I'll have to take a look later as I can only access FG via my phone. It looks like I'll just need to disable a widget when I get the chance.

I only use my phone on here.

I only use my phone on here. 

I do most of the time but some admin features that are back end can only be changed via my PC (I'm sure I could do it in phone in a way but the last time I did some years ago, I took everything offline by accident!).

Comment made so you got that the problem was not only pc.

Are you still doing updates to the site?  When I first open the forum on PC and mobile I get this "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '/', expecting identifier (T_STRING) in /var/sites/f/forevergaming.co.uk/public_html/forum/datastore/widget_recentStatusUpdates_xiyvemoki_5725a486610dfe0d33a47ce048a8b913.a5c09042ea.php on line 6"

 

I can reload the page and it just loads up as normal, so not sure what's going on.

Same here.

Thanks both. There seems to be an underlying issue with some plugins and widgets currently.

 

I'll retool at stuff this week once I'm home and recovered from the weekend.

Don't know if it's deliberate or not m, but I've noticed for a while that you don’t see who's online on here anymore.

It is deliberate. One of the things we've removed recently to streamline the site. We'll see how it goes and I'm probably due an update for everybody so sound off if theres any changes that are good or not so good.

Don't see it gotten more streamlined without it, but it doesn't bug me 🙂

Not sure if this is the right place but there's a couple of pinned threads in the RPG section that could probably be unpinned now regarding The Division 2.

Thanks mate, will take a look whilst i'm reviewing the place atm 👍

@GazzaGarratt how hard is it to change the smiley set? The grinning one at the moment looks like someone with down syndrome 😄 😄 😄 😄

Pretty easy to change the whole set to another standard we used to have. Funnily enough, these are Twitter's emoji so these are more common that the rest out there!

 

 

We can go back to little cartoon, lower res ones if we want to, or i can likely change this specific one somehow. The grinning face is this one 😀 and 😁. Did you type the shortcut cos I think this seems to be what we just need to change if i/we can find the setting?

[The3rdWalker 1,274]

Could we please remove the CSGO badges and user ranks from the profiles to the left of the posted message? I think they are pretty redundant and add little to no value to the forum.

I changed it, that looks much better. No wonder it looks like a fucking mong, it's the Twitter set. Just representing their members :D

I think this is easily removed too tbh. I'll have a poke around.

I don't see that being a problem - i want ranks though because every place has them and we should too...possibly need some bespoke FG ones before we go and haul them all off. @Diddums don't remove them before we have alternatives plz. fanks

Fair enough. I just feel they're dated, tacky and not to mention they are CSGO themed which none of you play.

I'm totally in agreement Rob. I always find it easier to remove them when we have something to replace them with. If someone fancies having a crack at new levels that would be awesome.

Think theres still some issues with the site, as it takes forever to load and sometimes get a time out message.

Just following this up @GazzaGarratt as I am finding it more often than not that it takes far too long to load the site now which is leading me to just not use the website now and go and spend the time I would have done on here on other forums etc.

Yep, it's so annoying, most days I give up trying to access the site.

 

Seems ok today, touching wood 🙈

I’ve noticed changing the theme has help elevate some of the lethargy… But I do know Lee is looking into the issue.

That is too much information Phil...

[GazzaGarratt 11,066]

Sorry guys. There's been serious problems back end but it's not been obvious to resolve. We've cleaned out alot of apps but weirdly it's still slow which makes no sense.

 

I've spoken to our Host and Software provider.

 

As I've not had much help from them, I'm waiting for a developer on Tuesday, so I'm hoping for a better outcome later next week.

 

If it's resolved, I think its the right time for an overhaul.

[Luseth 1,978]

Thanks for the update @GazzaGarratt I just have gone to post a few things recently and the site's timed out and I have lost things and in the end just not bothered posting, just seemed a shame 🙂

 

I have followed James post and switched the theme which does appear to have helped.
