Peter Truman Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Why is it that all posts whether by old or new members have a Newbie Rocket against their name even Pete Lewis? is it a problem with the Forum or my local issue. Secondly Bernard even tho the current Courier has been uploaded even after Logging in I can't access it. Logging in acknowledges me with a welcome when I click on the Courier it requests me to log in again, again & again. Is it my issue or a website problem?

Badwolf Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Looks like we're all got a rocket at the moment. Obviously Jeff Bezos has hacked the site to advertise his space trip. Apart from the posts info for us all, everything else looks ok on my tablet, not checked the main house pc yet... .... doesn't Kevin work in the rocket industry?

Pete Lewis Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 yes he does . so who lit the blue touch paper Kevin says its some security update and it will take a while to sort out Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinR Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 All, We applied a security update last night and it's also changed a few other things that will take a little while to change things to look better again. One of the things it did was to change the rank structure from using the number of posts one made to use a new counter called "points" and you get points for each post as well as for each like that your post attracts. Unfortunately it didn't copy the existing post count into the points score - I'm working on resolving this, but its very slow and at the moment needs me to manually adjust the points count for each member, and with several thousand members with a post count greater than 1 it will take a while - I'm looking at an automatic way, but I don't want to screw it up. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Lindsay Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 It doesn't seem to be constant, one minute I've got a striped thingy that looks like Idi Amin's epaulette and the next I'm back to the blue rocket again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris A Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Yea, I've got a rocket too. (My missus has been known to say I could do with one under me . .) Bet it's a cyber attack from them Ruskies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badwolf Posted June 11, 2021 Report Share Posted June 11, 2021 I'm waiting for the youtoob vid. I see that Kevin has restored most of the damage done by the upgrade, Kevin, thanks for your time and diligence. Why the rockets though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted June 11, 2021 Report Share Posted June 11, 2021 i click "browse " just under the tssc header "forums" is automatic and once browse is selected you can click the 3 boxes to change the display i use fluid no idea what the Themes do ive tried all 3 and get the same , this is a drop down at the bottom of the page under the FB and Twitter symbols but the daft controls are as shown as giant headings and topics are in boxes of script , not just a title and name with timeline Grrr Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badwolf Posted June 11, 2021 Report Share Posted June 11, 2021 Browse - OK Forum - OK FLUID - Not a chance. Can't find it anywhere on my tablet but not tried the PC yet. Not a problem as I have a permanent search set up in the browser, but interesting that there appears to be variations between devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
