System Update Issues

Noel,

Things are going to be a bit different now.

There are some admin tools that you will have access to in due course.

However all Personal Members are your financial members (used to be AccessLevel 1) - Sponsors are all your business type members (used to be AccessLevel 3) and the rest are now all Visitors (AccessLevel 0).

Moderation Alerts are sent to an email account and this needs to be setup as a distribution group etc as needed. I have not been advised how this needs to be setup as yet, but in the meantime the alerts will be sent to my office and can be redirected as needed.

Classifieds box was updated several hours ago.

On your Android device it should have switched to the mobile version can you confirm or not?

Partner fields were not a part of the base system and were not specified in the solution setup specifications, no problem it can be added but at this point was not included in the agreement.

Files libraries are in progress.

Hi David
My Android Samsung G5 is on mobile version; m.bog.asn.au
But when clicked on go to full site it now appears ok.

I assume you are saying we will be able to access Visitor details later.

The Spouse/Partner field did exist in the old site of registered users (financial & nonfinancial).

My point with Moderation alerts is that the old ones appear on the current forum for all to read and they should not be.

cheers
Noel

Noel,

The mobile system pages should be a lot better now and should be all working.

Spouse/Partner is to be added to the database.

I have hidden the Moderation Alert post - FYI as a system admin you have access to the moderation controls (however these are only currently available in the Desktop version).

David
The Member Tab does not work very often. Eg find a person or sponsor goes to membership article.
Cheers
Noel

Noel,

I have now added the Spouse/Partner names and imported this information from the old system to the new. So all Members should now have this loaded. It can be changed on the My Details tab at the top.

Noel,

All these should have been addressed in the threads that were started.

The ads should not have appears - it was an Admin flag setting that was not setup right.

Hi David,
My apologies I did not realise you were also monitoring individual threads. I understood that you wanted issues posted in the sticky thread.

cheers
Noel

No problem - I am not wanting to read individual threads and hoping it will all be contained in here just that I saw them and answered.

Thanks

Apologies for the added threads, if there is an edit function for posters or admin feel free to delete them.

I have had a play with posting and embedding a photo and that has worked, Also the adverts have dissapeared which was my main criticism.

I have had some glitch's where the site has popped up a message after trying to post a reply and I get a blank page with [To many redirects]

Also I don't really no the difference between the Full Site and the site that opens under the bushtrackerownersgroup URL

Another issue I've found,

When uploading photos to your own profile page is there a limit?

I already had two and uploaded another four, but when trying to update a seventh it just duplicates the last photo added, so there are 7 but two are duplicated even though a different seventh photo was chosen.

I found how to delete and tried a few times but got same result.

Nordave,

The security functions are separated and you will need to access/login to each system. Some functions are operating in shared mode (like Places and Treks) and these are mirrored across the systems.

David

Hi Tony, I had issues too but have been able to access since an alert was posted to David overnight. It looks like the site will be more streamlined than the old one

Cheers
John

The mobile login issue was resolved this AM. If you still have any issues please let me know however your login should cover either site so if you can login on the full site the mobile site will make use of the same login credentials.

Thanks David - All working now. Cheers

Yep there are a few little things that crept back in. I am trying to work out why some of these that were solved re-appeared. We are working on it - take care John.

Like this screenname - think I may have to create something like this in future maybe like crptoffwithwrk or similar LOL.

Found and removed - thanks.

Hi Mick
There is the one Forum List.

Members when making a post can tick a box at the bottom of the post before submitting the post. Only Members will be able to read that post. Visitors will see the post but will not be able to open the thread.

There appears to be a problem with the NEW THREAD button, giving a System Error, this will alert David.

I see your travels in Europe are going well.

Cheers

SMICK,

As mentioned by Noel the Members Only post are integrated into the main list. Select Visible to Members Only when you are adding your post. The New Thread problem is resolved so you should be good to go.

Secretary MEG
I have had a play with photos on profile. How can I adjust a photo, parts of which are cut off?

Where is that "visible to Members only" button?

I can't see it below this post.

Gone Bush,

In the New Thread page. The original poster is the person who sets the visibility.

Thanks David

Is there a way you can make the thread's visibility status apparent to subsequent posters?

Done - I added a little blue M on the index page and a text line in red at the top of the post when you are reading that states Members Only Thread.

The threads appear in Beige on the mobile site if it is a members only thread.

David

Great pickup - I have modified this now and it will pop up on hover and you will be able to read the text.

Give it 10 more minutes to become live.

John,

This should now be sorted - your member id was conflicting with a member id from another site. I have since updated the member messaging system to ensure this issue cannot occur in the future. Can you please confirm that you Member Message indicator goes out?

David

Glen,

It should be working - one click to thanks and one more click turn it off again. I will thank you on this post and you will receive a thanks advise email. This email can be disabled in your My Account tab at the top if you want to suppress receiving these or any other email type on the system.

David

Thank you David

I received the thanks email and can see the Thanks counter is now 1.

I also thanked you on this follow up. However the second click didn't remove the Thanks.

It is not important in the larger scheme of things but it is an elegant solution to the ongoing thankyou posts.

Glen

Glen,

I did not get or see a thanks - can you try apply it to this follow up please just click once and let me know?

David,

Done.

Glen

Glen,

Problem - I will work on it. I did not get anything and your message about the unable to remove points to a problem. I will address this and advise.

Glen,

Should be all foxed now thanks.

Sorted now - thanks.

Sorry David, I forgot to mention above that the "Forum Rules and Moderation" button on the Forum page does not work.

Alan,

Darn it that was working correctly but we changed from bog.asn.au back to bushtrackerownersgroup.asn.au and I have left the security certificate pointing to bog.asn.au. I will update this over the weekend or on Monday. Thanks for alerting me to this.

Thanks David

Alan

Alan,

I have addressed this issue and now the SSL functions are working correctly. I am actually using https:// to respond to this post.

I am still working on the shop system but you can certainly use it just the payment systems currently go via my offices. This will be change today but the system works in any case.

David

Until this feature is operational. If anyone wishes to contact a Committee member you can send them a Member Message or you can send me an email and I will forward to the appropriate committee member.

Thankyou Stephen,
A number of members have requested the Edit function for Forum Posts etc.
There are a number of user functions still to be added such as addding files to the File Swap etc.

The defaulting to Members Posts was discussed at the last Committee Meeting and is being looked into.

Appreciate your input.

Cheers
Noel

Hi Michael

I will find out from David where we are with you being "unable to log on as a Member".

The dbase has all your information listed.

Cheers

Pam

Alan,

There is a potential for this to happen. We are migrating the Muster system over to the new site very soon and this will resolve the issue fully.

Thanks David
