getting a strange one - click on the title bar logo (sportsmaserati) when logged in and its takes me to home page (thats good) but shows I'm no longer logged in. close the tab and open a new one and its shows I am logged in

refresh also dosen't show I'm logged in ?

this also happens on win7 (chrome) and win10 (IE)

You need to delete all previous SportsMaserati, SportsItalia and SportsAlfa cookies from your browser and it will stop doing this.

It's all fine elsewhere Matt only on here does it sometimes play up.

Still a problem Matt and it insists on here on using a US spelling whereas everywhere else uses a UK International spelling. if you type "recognized" it insists on the US Spelling.

On iPad it’s incredibly difficult to get magnifying glass pointer to edit a reply, just keeps highlighting the whole text

On smaller fonts the bold merges into each other.

Sometimes the controls for BOLD etc are just grayed out and not available.
Other times they are available, but the BOLD button doesn't seem to do anything.
And even if you make something BOLD[\B] with tags, it stays stubbornly not BOLD.

I don't know about quoted text, but at the moment, there seem to be no control buttons available at all - they are grey and unclickable.
Previously the 'I' button made (new, not quoted) text italic and the 'B' button seemed to do nothing at all.
If you used the HTML codes it seemed like the bold option was ignored too. Might just be a font thing where the current font in use looks the same in bold and not bold.
In the next two lines I'm going to try the HTML codes for Italic and then Bold.
The next word is in italics banana
The next word is in bold banana

Italics works, bold does not, buttons are grey.

Not sure if this is possible, but could three letter words be included in the search option. For example a forum Search for MAF sensor will only search sensor because "MAF is too short". I've tried searching in and out of speech marks.
I suspect there are a lot of three letter things people will need to search for MAF, NIT, ABS etc?

Ok, duly noted. Ive not seen the issues with the bold tool bar but will investigate further.

Add the wildcard:

"MAF * short"

it bought up this thread.

Another one fixed, you will see that at the bottom of the THIS WEEKS HIGHEST POSTERS sidebar, there is now a link to see everyone who has posted in the last rolling 7 day period.

The old site used to average between 120 and 150 so posting users is definitely up as is daily posting at over 200 a day average of late.

Keep it up!

Edited. It's may be nothing but have noticed the "naughty" word filter that operates within a message doesn't seem to filter when the message displays on the side bar.

There some interesting effects on posts with videos when quoted sometimes. The video bigger is smaller than the quote window it can make things a bit tearing
