There are a lot of things that need changing/fixing/sorting out right now, I'll get on to them over the next couple of weeks, just as soon as I've finished my exams <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_redface.gif">

When writing tutorials and you preview them the option to save them goes away, so i have to copy it go back and paste it. I got my exams now aswell, im in the half term break at the moment so no exams till next week.

Quite, sounds like a good idea to me. Maybe it would deter people from posting their maps on the front page for publicity.

I was using internet explorer on my new computer before I downloaded Firefox, and I was getting logged out too. But when I switched to Firefox, no more problems.

Well, I think I've fixed it now (forums are setting them when you visit a topic to remember that you've read it, and I think it can break the cookie limitations in IE and hence make you lose the 'keep me logged in' cookie) but we'll have to see, so far so good for me.

How long does it take to change pictures (the ones in the gallery of horror)? Yesterday I tried to change my photo, and while it says my profile was updated, it hasn't been changed yet. Should I just wait some more or should I try again?

I'd have thought it should be immediate - try refreshing or, if that fails, clearing out your temporary internet files and refreshing.

Unfortunately that didn't work. It allows me to update the little "about me" writeup immediately, but the picture doesn't change, even though it says the photo was uploaded successfully.

Edit: Others are seeing the new photo and not me.

Edit2: I logged out and then refreshed, and it worked.

Lep, have you thought any more about the multi-author maps idea? I know it was brought up before but don't recall if it was dismissed or not. Recently we had a case of a joint map being posted and one of the two authors being able to give the map a rating, which isn't really ideal. The whole thing then devolved into an argument...

On that note, I wasn't able to edit the comments. Dunno if this is by design, but as I can edit news posts and forum posts, I figured it was probably a mistake.

I think it all depends on what level admin/mod you are Duncan.. Obviously, there must be some distinction between "owner" and "subordinates"

Yeah there are different levels of "power", but it just struck me as odd that I can edit most posts, but not ones made as map comments. I wouldn't have thought it required more responsibility to have control over these things, so I figured it was an accidental oversight or whatever that my level of power couldn't do it.

Hmm, well I never thought that a forum mod couldn't edit all forums posts either but I found out differently..

I think you are responsible enough, but then again, why not hand you the keys to the Mercedes? If you understand my meaning..

Think of it this way Duncan, I have been here just as long as you, and I got Server admin status by default.. How does that look?

Er no I haven't done anything about multiple authors yet, but I've got all of next week off so will probably start then- I'm spending the odd free moments right now getting a forum/comments spell checker working <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> You should be able to edit comments now, though.

I'm still getting logged out occasionally... is this fixable, or an issue with the host?

Not a complaint, just an observation: The tables are now off because of the spell checker button..

Not a problem but perhaps you should move it to the top and the smileys to the bottom. the suggestions could be in a popup window perhaps.
