Forum Homepage Launched!

Postby Ross » Tue Jun 12, 2012 7:42 am

Good morning all,

We have finally completed the new forum homepage which can be accessed by going to the home URL :

www.Mazda6OC.co.uk

There is still bits and bobs I will be updating but 95% of it is there and working.

If you find any silly spelling mistakes or links that take you to the wrong place, please do let me know via this thread and I'll get it sorted :)

So... what do you think? Like or Dislike?

Thanks,
Ross.

One thing that could be useful would be a link back to the homepage when you are in the forum etc rather than keep clicking the back button.

I will look into it :-) will also look into making the forum links from the homepage open in new tabs so the websites on in the background on a diff tab... Can just switch tabs then :-)

Ok so now if you click from the homepage to go to the forum it will open in a separate tab :)

Getting a link on the forum back to the homepage will be more difficult as I need to look through all the forum code and find where to put the right bit!

Ok, I've FINALLY found the page and location for the code on the forum.

There's now a link "Click here to return to the Homepage" on the header section just next to the image.

Does anyone else have any recommendations for modifications to homepage? :)

Thanks,
Ross.
