Cheers Chuckles.  Can you do a subforum for the shows, please.  Maybe take out the OOC, that can be the main page we are using.  And add a 4CW Announcements page so I have somewhere for sign ups etc.

Is there a way of putting up a private bookers forum?  I'd post all my stuff in there, and that way if I have net problems someone else can go in there and post the show etc.


Hilds

I was thinking the opposite, posting the shows in the main bit. But sure, I can switch that.

The bookers' forum is supposed to be private right now. I turned off read access to regular members and guests. Not sure what else I can do if you're still seeing it. Ben?

Good! Not yet. I was testing to see if it was working. I'll try to set up the Booker group now.

Edit: Have a look now.

Done exactly what I'd have suggested by creating a new group just for this forum.

I asked for that too, I guess Ben's still on it.

For now, just have a play around with the hex codes. There are quite a few words you can use as well, have a look through this: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colornames.asp

What other colours are you looking for? Only reason I selected a few was to match the look and size of the bbcode toolbar I did. I can easily add a second or third row if people like, just got to let me know what colours you'd want to be included.

How about a chat box (like on fb), so we can instant message people that are on the site and chat, rather than pm.  That way we can have discussion when RAW is on, or I can organise meetings times for 4CW where we can get most of the roster on at the same time to discuss stuff?

Hmmm... I did consider that when I was setting everything up. But then I remembered something that Chux (or was is Essa) said years ago about it where people would just use that instead of making posts on the forum. I'll look into it a bit though.

Yea, I see your point about using that instead of making posts.  I know I'd find it handy to get 3 or 4 people together, but it can be done via pm, so not majorly important.

maybe only have a chat set up during PPVs?

We've done it before. We also did a chat room on a separate site. No one ever used either of them.

Group chats aren't as easy now MSN is dead, but if everyone gets on Twitter they can join me in talking about live shows. That's where my attention is.

Can we sticky posts and make announcements etc like on phbb?  If so, can someone sort me out with the authorisation, if possible.

Chux or myself can sticky posts and make announcements if you need.
Snake should be able to sticky posts - not sure whether moderators have access to announcements (should check that out really).

Basically, you need to be an Admin (or moderator depending on access to announcements) to do them, so unless Chux wants to set you up as Admin (or moderator) then you'd need to ask one of us to do it for you.

The bookers group has mod power over the 4CW forum. You should already be able to do it.

Cool, I'll have a proper look. Couldn't see it, but if it isnt there I'll get chuckles to sticky anything I want done.

Hilds

Edit- Can't see anything on my phone to let me do it, I'll check with my laptop tonight when I get home or tomorrow morning.

I've had a little look around the permissions and there's nothing about stickying in there. Maybe forum mods just can't do it on this board. It would be weird, but possible.

Try editing the first post in a thread, just under the main text box there should be a box to tick for sticky.

I created a moderator account on my test server and moderators can't sticky a post. I'll look into that as it does seem odd, see if I can set it up so that this can happen.

Board announcements would need to go through Chux though.

Try it now, you should be able to sticky a post in the 4CW section. Let me know if it works and I'll then let Chux know for future reference.

Can we send pm's to multiple people?  I'm sending a message to Benji and chuckles, but it looks like I have to send them individually.  Would be easier to send to multiple

I've noticed a bug with the center text thing. It seems that when you select a section of text, it only centers the first paragraph. As soon as there is a line break, you have to reclick the center tag.

Late slip for Rhys!

I've had a look and  the center tag closes automatically (code wise) once you've pressed Enter twice. Can't change this unfortunately, got to work in this way to work, otherwise people would be able to center text in the middle of a sentence which just wouldn't work.

So with your headings you'd need to center them individually. For the text, as they're all one line after the other with no space in between, you can do whole blocks contained within one tag.

So...

[center][size=150]Text[size]

More text
More text[/center]

... will only center the header as there's a blank space between text.

[center][size=150]Text[size]
More text
More text[/center]

... will center everything as there's no blank line between text.

You can either do the second option, or you can work in in blocks like this:

[center][size=150]Text[size][/center]

[center]More text
More text[/center]

Working on a new better BBCode section which will include the center and size tag. Might take a bit of time as I have some other things to work on, but I will have a better one available at some point. Will also get rid of the pop up for colour when it's done 🙂

If I spend too long on a post it times out and logs me out.  I think I am set to always be logged in and wondered if this is a board setting?  No big deal as the post is still there when I press the back key, just a bit annoying.
