Another observation. The pages are actually larger on the wifes laptop than they are on my 22" monitor at fullscreen

From the home page I tried to log into the file section and it asked for a user name and password. I tried to enter my forum info and it did not accept it.

Sorry Mate, my software developer training always taught me to report issues right away.

Ben,
I notice that the default page title has changed when trying to save an HTML copy of any of the forum topics. I frequently do this for any topic of particular interest, for later reference - examples being DaveB's repaints or the current reporting on P3D v4.

I wonder if you could change the default title so that the page number is either deleted or moved to the end of the title. At present, the default for the P3D topic is -
Prepard3D v4 - Page 6 - Classic British Flight Sim.htm

and, if I may, I'd like to see that become either -
Prepard3D v4 - Classic British Flight Sim.htm
or
Prepard3D v4 - Classic British Flight Sim.htm Page 6

All for my own convenience of course, and for more consistency with the way that pages were titled when saved in the previous version of the forum software.

Thanks for at least thinking about it,
regs,
Ro


P.S. I've just found out that the text box where you type a post or reply now auto-expands when you reach the bottom - a brilliant new feature. Thanks again for doing the update - I know that such things are an awful lot of work.

Hi Rohan, much as I'd like to lay claim to developing Phpbb, its not my work. So with respect to page numbers and new features, it is what it is I'm afraid.

Hi Chaps,

Some good news for the VA crew, DM has been along and sorted out the VA pages and Database, so that should all be back to normal. May thanks David

And another quick update, the "lightbox" addon for the forum has been updated by its author so that it is now compatible with phpBB v3.2.x so I've reinstalled it. That's the function that automatically resizes posted images and magnifies them to full size when you click on them
