Well done Simon for setting up this forum.
It looks much more powerful than the Yahoo version.

Have I missed something? I could not find a link from the http://www.capecutter19.org homepage and consequently had to type in the whole URL.

Again, well done!

Hi Dennis

I will create a link to the forum this weekend from the rest of the site- the forum was the first thing I have got up and running.

Hello Simon

I notice that I have to log on each time that I visit the forum site. I have checked the box that says "Remember me on this computer". But I still have to log on each time.

Any ideas?

Hi Dennis

I think Internet Explorer is set not to save cookies in your profile. I think that you can change this in Tools-Internet Options. It may be unwise to reset this as some sites can download tracking cookies- hence the reason that IE is set not to save them.

It may be best to logon for each session.

I am going to create a PDF regarding how to create albums and publish pictures within the forum and provide a link to it on the forum page as when understood this is easy.

Hi,
until the forum gets well known and there is decent traffic, would it be worth considering notifying all the yahoo group members by email that a post has been made?

I, obviously, and posted a few questions, but for the moment Im' more likely to get multiple responses if I do it via the group.

Looks very good, by the way!!

Cheers,

David

Hello Simon

Is there a way of re-ordering photos in an album?

I would like to group images in "Mary Ann Modifications" so that they make more sense.

Cheers

Hi Dennis

I know you can create new albums and move pictures around albums- is this what you want to do?

You can do this under your control panel.

Hello Simon

I cannot find out how to move pictures around within my albums!

Any ideas?

Hi Dennis

Have you managed to sort this out? It pretty straight forward. If you have not I have produced a document that could be published to show you how. It just needs tidying up.

I have been looking at this in a lot of detail through admin etc and have found a number of other interesting things...

Each user can have a maximum of 2 public albums and post a maximum of 50 pictures. This is the default setting.

You can have a number of other albums but are only acccesible from reviewing your public profile- even if you make these albums "public".

Regards

Hello Simon

No I have not (yet) managed to re-arrange pictures within my albums. I can edit the captions, delete or add photos but not re-arrange the order in which they are presented!

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Cheers

Dennis
