Thanks also for the topic of financing... has been on my mind and it is likely that the member who contribute the most (info) are also the ones most likely to support... while the guests and one-off visitors who benefit the most from the info are less likely. It is human nature though I have not yet found a better answer.

I had to login (new phone, so no surprise) but if I navigate away or close BNA, I have to log in again, even if Chrome hasn't closed. Can't check on desktop until tomorrow.

Thanks for keeping this place going, must be quite the chore (or even a labour of love).

For avatars... I have to manually upload this... if you email I will do this. Not sure why it reverted back to an old one, but I can say if you upload an avatar, it may disappear from alone (based on the way the system is setup) so I have to do this manually.

If I flip the phone horizontal, I can see my post options and do an edit.
Likely with the new software, a compatibility issue with that button, but I know what to do.

Can't replicate the repeated login issue on web (Chrome, Edge).
Still occurring on mobile (android chrome).

Something that will be visible is the fixed breadcrumbs in the forum... and DavidS gets his Avatar!
Still have the dropdown menu (mobile view) to fix and also the advertising (fix ads on the right and remove google ads inbetween content).

Two things I find perplexing about a forum that is so popular: 1) no provision for avatar; 2) the seeming non-functional way of posting or linking images; the is cryptic and unhelpful. Is this a coding limitation or what??

Weeks, if not months of work were sunk into these and I couldn’t get a workable solution
Because of the level if traffic, traditional hosting is cost prohibitive so we use a cloud service, but has the side effect of impacting uploading (and permanently saving) uploaded files.

Images is fairly standard - you host somewhere else, copy their link and put it in between the IMG tags.CmdrBiggles wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 3:06 pmInteresting, but ah—,

Logging in via Edge desktop says connection is secure.
Have to log in each and every time I visit via Chrome on Android 13, even if navigating away via a page link, the forums require me to re-login. This interface says connection is not secure. Login is easy on phone as it's a saved password for now and a one-tap process.
Whatever this means?

For avatars, if you upload one, it will be available until I do the next update or if the server ramps up / ramps down.
Avatars need to be sent to me - just email me as I need to manually add them so they are permanent. I know it is a hassle... (yesterday 12 hours trying to fix a forum tech issue without a solutions...)
