Default The BIG list of Things to fix

Okay as so many people have various issues with the boards, I think it would be a good idea to have a cohesive list where members can post their grievances and we can collect them all in one place for the Administrators to look at. Hopefully that way the admin will be able to deal with them or answer our questions in a more timley fashion instead of having to individually deal with multiple posts on the same topic.

I can update this list as the problems get resolved and if I missed any out.
  • The Search function.
  • Not working..simple
    Fixed. And confirmed fixed by Stu.
  • .
  • .
  • Email Notifications
  • People report getting either no email notifications of subscribed threads or sporadic notifications.
  • Fixed. And confirmed fixed by Stu.
  • .
  • .
  • Time Zone
  • All posts seem to be stuck at one hour out.
  • Fixed. And confirmed fixed by Stu.
  • .
  • .
  • Go to Last post function
  • This has been covered extensively in the Bugs and Features section, but still needs addressing
  • Deffered. pending software update to 3.7 should rectify this.
  • .
  • .
  • List of moderators:
  • Moderrators list is out of date and needs bringing back up to date so only active moderators are listed.
  • Under review by Stu now.
  • .
  • .
  • Home Page
  • Even though there was some indication that things would be refreshed on the boards, nothing seems to have been done recently. This includes blogs, featured scooby etc.
  • .
  • .
  • Avatars-Scooby Model
  • This was meant to be a feature and one heavily subscribed to, in which people could adapt the look of the impreza to their individual taste. We seem to have been stuck at the same models , colours and options list for a year now.
  • .
  • .
  • competitions / prize draw
  • Started off well and was a great success at first. Now it has tailed off.
  • .
  • .
  • Go to Last post function
  • This has been covered extensively in the Bugs and Features section, but still needs addressing
  • .
  • .
  • Scoobyshop
  • You cannot access this through any of the links. You get a message about linking to SN or Passionford
  • .
  • .
  • White line through header graphics IE problem only
  • .
  • .
*Added by Stu at IB*
I have stickied this topic so people can add usefull input to it as time goes on. Please keep it usefull, off topic ramblings will be deleted and the culprit tortured.

quick post edit problem

You edit a post and hit save, the little saving graphic appears and when that goes and the edit box stays on the screen.

If you then refresh the post has been edited correctly so not a major bug, but an annoying one

I know it has, but it is worth adding to the list simply because it is still annoying after all this time

Permanent ban means just that.

Prevent persistent trolls (PSL ) who have been permanently banned from re-registering with new user names etc.

not quite sure if that is relevant as a 'thing to fix' as it is a moot point and one that people differ on. But I hear ya

It was only an example of the many trolls here though he was certainly the most prolific, still he's a nobody now

Oh well at least my world isn't ruled by a Subaru related forum, I mean that would be really sad wouldn't it

100% agree here! We pay our fees, so why cant we all have our cars on the homepage?
Also would be nice to get a member sticker for our cars etc, we pay enough for memberships. This could be colour coded like tax discs to show if memberships are current.

Other forums do this for a smaller fee.

You should get more for your money from here. Am disillusioned.

I guess for it to work, Stu would need to make it a sticky just so everyone can join in.
