Recommended Posts

Some of you may have noticed the upgraded look of SAU.

If you have any feedback, bugs, comments etc. Please post them here in a central location so that we can keep track of it all.

The main things to note are;

* Invision Power Board has been upgraded to 3.1.4

* Invision Gallery has been upgraded to 3.2.2

* New caching engine has been installed for better performance

* Massive database cleanup and optimisation

* Whole new codebase - The entire directory was deleted and the new version installed fresh (This was because we had built on the same directory and contents for almost 9 years and it was filled with bits and pieces from many old installs.)

* An iPhone/iPad app!!! Invision has an iPhone app for use with any version 3 install - Get it here.

Things to note;

* Some things might be broken. This is inevitable, it was a giant upgrade. We deleted *all* existing files and started again with a new install of Invision. If there is something that was there before and isn't now, or its still there but broken, let us know. This change was meant to increase functionality, not reduce it.

* Trader Ratings - We will be adding the 'top ten' lists and 'latest feedback' to the index of this app as well as a better search for users.

* Private Messages - These are disabled while a conversion script runs to convert them to the new 'conversations' system utilised by Invision 3.

* More themes/skins will be coming shortly.

* Only one (or none) member group icons displaying. These will be fixed soon.

There are a couple of themes I have purchased for the forums. We'll get them installed and then run a poll to get some ideas/preferences so we can keep everybody happy. ;)

is there going to be a skin like the old dark skin? because i prefer the look of it to the light skin.

also i'm not sure whether it's just when i view my posts, but if i quote someone it comes up with all sorts of encoding in the quoted post. i'll get a pic to show you incase it's just the way it shows the post to me. this was after hitting the reply button

also, liking the new mobile version (just tried it on the phone to see how it is). only thing is that i can't post pics or anything like that from it without typing the code. there is no button for it. i have to use the full site version for that which i always have problems with because the width of the text boxes are wider than my screen and it doesn't follow the text very well so i will be typing off screen for some of the line.

also i don't think i can multi quote from the mobile site either (took me a bit to figure out how to reply to a post at all). neither of the above are much of an issue since i don't use my phone to post much anyway, but i just thought i'd post up about it anyway, since that is what this thread is for.

yeah I have exactly the same issue with the title of the email notifications - unfortunately it makes it impossible to manage the duplicate emails now. The old format was OK!

Otherwise the upgrade looks great, and has been way smoother than other times over the years. Great work Christian!

Yep, as stated in the announcement, there are more skins to be added yet.

there is a but with the counters, went into the stagea forums and was redirected to the stagea for sale, didnt register that i had gone in there.

Not totally following you, can you eplain again?

It probably goes without saying, but good job on the upgrade, Im sure youve already noticed but existing posts that contained quotes seem to be a bit munted.

Yep, just noticed today, will try to sort that now.

1) Email notifications rather than saying first New Reply and then the title topic now has username ill take a screeny

Ahh cool, will sort that out.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Keep it coming.

Hey all,

I need my PM's because I'm trying get an important part posted and need to communicate via PM Messages. Any idea when this will be available again?

Cheers.

I dont anticipate the script will finish within 24hrs. I suspect they'll be available again on Tuesday.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
