Forum problems??

[WoodlandsCamper]

Are there problems today (11th March) on the forum?? Trouble (error 500) when using 'favourite' link and when logged in don't have all the usual tabs.

PS please can we have an English spell checker instead of an American one? The checker is trying to remove 'u' from 'favourite'.

I have not seen any problems here, all seems to be working properly.

All seems fine from here – how are things now, WoodlandsCamper? And I will see what I can do about the spell checker.

I to tried to log in at about 13:15 pm and also got "error 500 - contact your site operator" message, but i simply tried again and its been OK since

But a note on the Tabs, (grey ones Index/Recent Topics/ New Topics/ ...Currently Win 7 Ultimate and Chrome on this machine and I have 7 Tabs, but on a laptop using Vista 7 Chrome I only have three tabs - Strange.

Please Lizzy can you see if the colour of the text in posts can be set to black or upped in size rather than this grey, its quite difficult to read when composing.

The link now works in the last half hour, and all 7 tabs are back.

If you want to increase the text size and make posts easier to read hold down Ctrl and press the + key, each time you press + the size of the forum page will increase, this works for all websites and email.
To decrease the size hold down Ctrl and press the - (minus) key.

It also works if you hold down Ctrl and scroll the wheel on your mouse (if it has a scroll wheel).

That means I've just renewed my membership for another year
Been very stressful today - c**k-up on getting a pension sorted out and c**k-up from HMRC on getting my tax relief 'cos I haven't worked for 6 months.

Sounds like you have had a hard day Graham........time for chilling with an amber nectar methinks

Hi WoodlandsCamper. I've checked with the guys that built this forum for us and there's no spell checker on it. You may have a spell checker on your browser that is set to US English not UK? See here for Firefox and here for Google Chrome – there didn't seem to be a handy link we could send for Internet Explorer. I hope that helps!

Thanks Lizzie. Unfortunately, after checking the Google Chrome settings they are already set to English UK (including the spell checker), so perhaps the spell checker needs a spell checker
