Title: AROCA web site changes
Post by: alfagtv100 (Biggus) on March 20, 2009, 09:30:48 AM
Is it just me, or has our website become slightly less user friendly?
- The latest forum posts are no longer viewable from our home page.
- I am no longer able to find the link to the AROCA home page from the forum pages.

Not wanting to be a moaning Marco but I don't think the site is better following the changes.

Cheers,

Moaning Marco.
P.S: I just removed a nail from one of the Pirelli P Zero Nero 235/40/ZR19 tyres on my 159.  It went psssssssst.
Will I the tyre dude say, "no worries mate, I will just plug it" or "its f*cked mate, that will be lots of $$$"?
Life is exciting, isn't it?

Current good quality tyres like you have will repair fine with internal plugs Marco. Just as long as you haven't let it run down and damaged the side wall. The only repair that is illegal is in the side wall.

I believe Evan is dealing with this issue. Click on forum on the home page, then ' show unread posts since last visit'. Now l'm getting used to it, it really isn't so bad at all. Then to go back to the home page click on 'home'.

Fixed the top link.  The recent posts feature is more difficult.

Added back the recent forum module on the vic home page - not quite as nice as it used to be, but will do for now.
