Cheers pal. Submitting new articles should be straightforward.

I'm going to change the navigation from submit match report to submit article/report - then you should be presented with a new article form - simply complete - I review and hey presto the best ones get air time the others still hit the main pages and add to the content train. The good news is any enthusiast can write an article or match report or news feature and if it's on topic i'll publish.

Can you do me a favour and test just upload nonsense and i'll not aprrove just to see if its working. If not there may need to be a few more tweaks.

Cheers

Jimmy

Doesn't seem to be working at the moment. There are no forms available and if I try to create one it say's I don't have permission.

Don't like the way the forum is re-sized to be narrow with brick graphics either side.

Makes it feel like wasted space

Mr.S - please try again i think its an access issues so upgraded your account to test.

Clc - thanks for the feedback I'll look to widen the site - its built like this for ipad/ tablet users hence the funny widths. Always happy to amend for users.

So not quite the right place/thread, but wasn't sure where else to suggest it..

With the World Championship coming up should there maybe be a 2014 Worlds section on the forum?

Board Index > Playing > 2014 Worlds
