Post by: NickT on April 07, 2016, 12:32:32 PM
Hello everyone.

Just wanted to let you know that we are making a few changes around here.

I'll be merging a few boards and changing a few things around. Any suggestions please get in touch.

We are running a default look (theme) at the moment. I've upgraded the forum to a V2 so some features might not be working for now. The new software is much better featured!

Couple of minor changes.

People with more than 50 posts are now "Senior Members". That should help newbies know who has been around a while.

It will also mean Hasselblad will know who is most active (hint hint).

You can also award people Karma if you like what they are posting.

I'll keep adding notes here as we tweak things.

I've merged a few of the less used boards.

Also this version has a calendar built in so you can post events there.

It seems that some attachment pictures were lost when converting to the new forum. Are they gone forever of can you resurrect them?

Everything is backed up so they will be somewhere, I will look into it.

Hi Jerome
Thanks for the heads up.

All the images previously uploaded to the forum are backup. The only missing ones will be where someone has linked to an image on their own server (or dropbox etc) then later deleted it.

Hi Raffa
It's been a while since I've used RSS feeds, I used to have then in Mail but it seems they live in the safari sidebar now. I added this sites feed like this:

http://osxdaily.com/2014/11/03/subscribe-rss-feeds-safari-os-x/

And the feeds are working, does that help?

I use an external RSS reader (Vienna).
when I click here in the footer where there's the RSS link, it's not valid :( (also the old one stopped working)

RSS is definitely enabled. Does this link work if you copy it into Vienna?

feed://www.hasselbladdigitalforum.com/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss

Also this might help:

Let me know!

thanks Nick, but it's not working :(
I tried editing the last variable as in the article:
;type=atom - Atom
;type=rdf - RDF
;type=rss - RSS 0.91
;type=rss2 - RSS 2.0

but nothing changed.
I am attaching a screenshot of the errors in Vienna.
hope it might help...

I've switched off Karma and added likes instead, looks like a better system.
