That's going to take me several days or even weeks Well yes, it would take me that long to get everything set up to look and feel just like the present Templot Club forum. Which was my original intention. But XenForo is a combine harvester to the UltraBB tea trolley. Blundering about in the code to chop bits out and bolt bits on is not for the faint-hearted. After struggling to find my way around I think I shall leave most of it as it is for now, and come back to iron out any snags later. Which means if you would like to Register as a member on there and have a play, please do: http://85a.uk/templot/club/index.php?whats-new/ Click the Register link near top right ...

2. Admin: server move

... might be, and there was one weekend when many UK members lost connection entirely for a couple of days. Jim is now suggesting that we move down the road to a different data centre in Columbus with faster and more reliable connections to the UK. My tests have indicated a significantly faster connection, but before I say yes, I would like to be sure that everyone will be able to access the new server and with good connection speed. Can I ask you all therefore to try clicking this link. It is another UltraBB forum on the same server which we would be on if we move: http://www.thesongwritersforum.com If that comes up quickly without problems, fine, no need to do anything. If it doesn't, please try again later and if you still have problems please reply to this with a few details -- where you are in the world, internet provider, which browser, broadband or dial-up, etc., and the exact words of any error messages you see. Many thanks. regards, Martin. ...

3. Admin: web site changes

... ://85a.uk/templot If you go there now you should get to a copy of the Templot Companion, although not all links have yet been converted. But please use the existing site for the time being. The web site is the easy bit. The real headache is going to be what to do with this Templot Club forum. The PHP code and MySQL database is all as old as Templot -- it was originally written by Aycan Gulez about 20 years ago. When Jim took it over he renamed it UltraBB and made a few improvements, and David Williams created the image gallery for it. But the core code is still much the same. Nothing has changed for at least 5 years -- the world has moved on from web forums to prefer social media on mobile devices. Jim says he hasn't sold a new copy of UltraBB for several years now. Naturally he makes sure it still works on his servers. But the prospect of moving a 20-year-old database to a different server running later versions of PHP ...

5. Admin: Image Gallery

... this way is preferable to adding an attachment, because they are stored outside of the database. This makes the database much smaller and faster. Here's the link to the Image Gallery. It should be fairly self-explanatory -- click the Upload Images link to upload your images in the usual way. You can upload up to 5 images in one go: http://85a.co.uk/forum/gallery_view.php There is an Image Gallery button at the top of every page for this. The Image Gallery plug-in for UltraBB was created by David Williams and released today. Many thanks David. regards, Martin. posted: 9 Jul 2009 23:21 from: Martin Wynne An update on the new Image Gallery feature.

10. Admin: Welcome to Templot Club in its new home.

... Data 1. The reason for the move is that our previous hosting provider modified their database server settings over New Year, and since 28th December I have not been able to make reliable backups of the Templot Club database. It would be a great misfortune to lose the accumulated content on Templot Club, and having a reliable backup is essential. So we have moved to a new host. Templot Club is now in the safe hands of Jim Hale at Data 1 Systems in Columbus, Ohio. Jim is the developer of the UltraBB software which runs Templot Club, and has a very robust backup schedule on all his hosted accounts. In addition, I can now make my own backups again. Which means that our content is safely backed up on both sides of the pond! Unfortunately moving the whole thing means that you need to update your bookmarks to the new address, and log in again here before you can post messages. Sorry about that. If you have forgotten your log in password there is a mechanism to change it on the log in ...

Hi Phil, No plans to change horses. I'm very pleased with the UltraBB software we use here, I wouldn't want to be running a forum on any other software -- I've tried them. I'm not going to do an RMweb. I think membership of the Templot email group was around 700 when we made the move. I've recently become the owner of the Trax users email group. If we can add the 61 members there to the total it would take us well over 1000, even allowing for some duplication. Place your bets for the date when we hit 1000! Martin. posted ...

... I can make is to copy and paste the link into your browser instead of simply clicking it. Make sure that what you are copying includes the #p.... bit on the end. Or to not use Windows Mail. If you normally view emails as HTML you could try changing to viewing emails as plain text (which is much safer). But all emails from Templot Club are plain text anyway, so that shouldn't really make any difference. All the above also applies to your own board and other UltraBB boards. regards, Martin. posted: 3 Nov 2009 01:58 from: devans You nailed it Martin... I switched Windows Mail to view in plain text only, and now it takes me to this post, when the link is clicked. I never noticed that it was cutting off the #p... part.
