Re: FORUM UPDATE
Https... Pleaaaaasee.
It has been the standard for over 10 years.
It is going to be mandatory next month anyways (chrome).
I like my privacy enough to consider https basically standard.
Also, searching doesnt work anymore.
Searchterm* is broken, only returns a couple of items instead of the usual hundreds of pages.
Site is much faster though, which i thank you for!

Re: FORUM UPDATE
Yea. It would be. But then the people who like it white will make me change it back in a week Just kidding. Yes, I could install an option where each user could choose their color. But I plan to do something better. Hopefully start making a more modern and mobile friendly front end for the forum. One little piece at a time. So I'll devote my time to that for now.johnson90 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 06, 2021 10:45 amHey wetshoe, will it be possible in the future to change it back to black?Wetshoe wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 2:39 pm Hi All.
It was necessary to update the forum software. Please excuse the color change. To simplify the process and reduce chance of issues, I'm using default settings for now. For the first couple of days the forum may be slow. It should speed up after that. Please do let me know if anything is not working for you.
Thanks and Happy New Year All!

Re: FORUM UPDATE
When I have some free time one of these days Ill try to install an optional black theme. Don't hold your breath though, I'm pretty busy with boring regular life stuff. And no guarantee the new theme will work correctly.johnson90 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 06, 2021 10:45 amHey wetshoe, will it be possible in the future to change it back to black?Wetshoe wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 2:39 pm Hi All.

Re: FORUM UPDATE
Sure. I guess once its mandatory Ill have no choice. Curious though, for an application like this, why would anyone care if there is https since anyone can read all the posts anyway?mrkeyboardcommando wrote: ↑Wed Jan 06, 2021 8:02 pm Https... Pleaaaaasee.

Yea, to speed up the forum I had to reduce the size of the database, which unfortunately meant breaking the search. Not sure if it will rebuild itself. Thought it was more important to make the forum perform better.

Re: FORUM UPDATE
Https is handy for covering up communication between the server and user. So.... Im not sending my password in plaintext over the internet for example.Wetshoe wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 1:50 pmSure.

If you do not think its that important, why not do away with the whole registering thing?
Privacy is a very important aspect, especially in the world where this forum operates.
Not everybody thats nosey should see another persons login details and communication when they sniff a network.
You can pm me if you want to talk about https and servers in general.

Re: FORUM UPDATE
I think there was a time when you could see everything including pictures on the board without being registered. Perhaps it is a little unsatisfactory not to know that, to not even know when the board began or the name of the founding member to whom we should all be grateful.
Will the board go back to dark or stay the light colour similar to earlier times. Will Shoddy get fed up thinking about shoes and making posts, or remain despondent, empty, drained,
but still not knowing ....
these things and more on the next episode of .....
Ahhh, those halcyon, pre everywhere croc and trainer times (apologies to those members who love), to those days when the outdoors was always a source of visual stimulation, while American and probably other tv could also be relied upon for just so many varieties of shoefix, although significantly smaller .........
Happy days
