Hi all, Following on from this thread, regarding recent concerns around copyright infringements on the forum, I have made the very difficult decision to permanently enforce the restriction on uploading images, files and attachments to posts on the forum. Alongside this, all previously uploaded images, files and attachments will be removed from the forum. This will also include profile photos. I appreciate that this is a big change and will come across as a surprise, however, I've have tried to explore different options for this. I know there's some very popular posts on here whe

Just updated the wording in my previous post, it's specifically around the rendering of uploaded images on the forum -
Important Notice: Temporary Restriction on Image Uploads

Hi all, just wanted to provide a quick update on this. I'm still assessing the knock-on impact of rendering images on the forum, so I'll provide an update when I'm able to share further details. -
Important Notice: Temporary Restriction on Image Uploads
oneboro replied to oneboro's topic in Boro Forum
I hope to be able to provide further details and information soon. It's great that most of the content on here is Boro related, unfortunately, any content that has previously been shared here (or on any platform) is subject to deletion following claims. -
Due to recent concerns regarding copyright infringements, we are temporarily restricting the uploading of images to the forum. We understand the value of sharing visual content on here, however, it's essential for us to ensure that all content shared on the forum complies with copyright laws and respects the rights of content creators.

Regarding the forum issues, what problems are people facing? I'm aware of forum posts going missing, which I'm looking into. Are there other issues? If there are problems with adverts, I can ask the advertising partner to look into this. I'd like to find out the specifics so I can pass this on. Thanks

This was raised a few pages back, however, I just wanted to let you all know about a new feature... the ability to hide a post you have made. In the edit drop down, you can now choose "Hide". You will be prompted to enter an optional reason for hiding the post that will be visible to the oneBoro team. Once hidden, you won't be able to republish this, however, the post remains visible to the oneBoro team. If your post has already been Quoted by another member, this will remain visible in their post. Hope this is nice feature for a Wednesday evening!

thank you for flagging these adverts again, I've reported these to the ad providers to block them, so they should clear up very soon. Sorry about that. As usual, please keep reporting these and we can get them blocked
-
Hi all, sorry for any disruption with the ads. If/when you do run into issues if you could please screenshot it and PM me with details(what device you're on and page URL) so that I can get the ad providers to block them.

Is the current mod team fit for purpose? (Official Cher Thread)
oneboro replied to Denzel Zanzibar's topic in Boro Forum
Evening all, I've had a read through all of this thread and the opinions mentioned. I'll do my best to summarise. If memory serves me right, the oneBoro Forum is approaching its 15th yearโฆ 15 years!! Over that time, the admin and moderator team have gone above and beyond anything that could be expected of them, doing this on a voluntary basis in-between their day to day lives, often going unnoticed at times. Looking at the stats weโve had almost 40,000 posts over the past 6 months. Keeping on top of all of these posts is no easy job. Difficult decisions have to be made at times, and- 342 replies

Just to provide an update - this issue should hopefully now be resolved. Please let me know if you run into any other issues like that.

Sorry for the issues that have been happening regarding the adverts, I'll get in touch with the ad providers and see if we can get a fix in place

This is such sad news, I'm not the best with words, but the oneBoro Forum would certainly not be what it is today without the help and dedication from VB; from the days of 606 and the Evening Gazette forum, to helping make everyone feel welcome and providing ITK snippets along the way. RIP VB ๐

I'll take a look into the mark forum as read button ๐

I've increased the font size on the forum, hopefully that's looking a bit better now!
-
I'd just like to check which devices the font size is rendering small on? The change I made was on the mobile site to increase the size - so it may be that this has been cached. If not, I'll take a look into again ๐
-
Thanks for the feedback ๐. I agree in that the font size was looking a bit smaller, so I've upped the size of this

I have now completed for the forum update with a couple of theme and feature improvements. Please let me know if you spot any issues. As much information such as browser, device and a screenshot will be a good help to try and fix any problems. Cheers!

Just a quick update on this, I'll be looking to do the update Friday evening through to Saturday evening so there may be periods of downtime when the forum will be offline. I'll let you know when this is complete ๐

I'm planning to update to the oneBoro Forum to the latest version this week. I'll update this thread with more details as to when this will be happening, and when the update is complete ๐ I hope the update will go smoothly and to plan!

Let me know if you need access to the oneBoro Twitter, YouTube and Instagram accounts (or if you need me to verify any accounts) ๐

Thanks @DanFromDownSouth, Iโve started getting those this morning too - very frustrating as it seems to knock the site out on mobile. Iโll try and get that sorted ASAP - sorry about this!
-
Thanks for flagging these, Iโll pass this on to the ad network to get blocked - sorry for the issues on that front
-
Sorry to hear thatโs still the case @GrimsbyBoro, Iโve passed this on so hopefully thatโll get sorted.
-
Thanks @GrimsbyBoro, that ad is now blocked. Really sorry again for this, these ads are getting excluded when they do crop up and weโre doing our best to catch them. As always, where possible please screenshot (and if youโre able to copy the URL) and send to myself so they can be blocked. As mentioned previously, these types of redirect adverts shouldnโt be happening and weโre doing our best to resolve it.
