Hi there,
I was just wondering if this website could do with a revamp as quite a few of the links don’t work anymore and maybe if we made it newer than more people out there who have syncro’s will join.
Also would it be possible to decrease the amount of forum sections as there are quite that dont get used.
I am not saying that this website is bad its just that it could do with a revamp so sorry if anyone has any bad feelings from reading this post.
Marcus
Hi Marcus, If you have the time can you copy the list of links that don’t work to me please? I will then delete them Chris
Hi Chris,
Thanks for your replying.
These are the links that don’t work –
This is the recommended reading on the documentation section – http://www.vwsyncro.co.uk/p.asp?arc=&page=1&size=9&search=documentation&sortby=datelastmodified&sortbydir=desc&cmd=do_search&i=5&big=0&gotourl=&p=4.Photos%2F_&basket_params=&basket_params_index=These are on the links page –

http://www.dubweiser.co.uk/Also on the Photos info section the vw syncro photo archive doesnt work – link – http://www.vwsyncro.co.uk/p.asp?p=4%2EPhotos%2F%5F
And none of Chris’photos work – http://www.vwsyncro.co.uk/p.asp?p=6%2EPhotos%5FChrisS%2F%5F
Also LD50’s photos dont work – http://www.vwsyncro.co.uk/p.asp?p=9%2EPhotos%5FLD50%2F%5FI think thats all.
Thanks and if you need any help with it, i would be happy to help you out,
MarcusHI Ld50,
Thanks for that. Like i said before if you need any help with it, i would be happy to help you out,
MarcusThanks but it;’s ok – I just need a bit of time to sort it out – I did a bunch of upgrades to the photo section on another site and then transferred it and I must have missed something. Will sort as soon as I can.
Ah ok then. You don’t have to rush to sort it out, i am sure you have got more important things to do as well.
Actually chris/marcus – whislt any empty categories/forums can happily go, wit the nearly empty ones I would like to try and reassign the posts in them to a different forum at a database level.
I did some initial digging around in that area and whilst it’s fiddly it should be possible, that way we don’t lose anything.
Any empty ones can go though but the non-empty ones ahve some useful info in. Perhaps we just need one “useful extra stuff” category.
If we can compile a list of what needs to move where I can have a go at moving them.
Thats a good idea Ld50.
Having looked at some other car forums, we could maybe split the forums up like this –
General discussion – with meetings, general topics
Techinal section – with headings like engine, wheels and tyres, bodywork, interior
A gallery section – with sub categories – Members cars and other cars you have seen
Then a section for the for sale and wanted ads.Also i was just thinking, i don’t mean to criticise but the actual logo we use for this forum looks a bit american to me and this is an English forum and the cars we are talking about are from germany so maybe we could do with a new logo?
Thanks,
MarcusAs far as I understand it the aim is to shift the nearly empty sections around – moving all the posts from the busy forums I don’t think will be doable.
> Also i was just thinking, i don’t mean to criticise but the actual logo we use for this forum looks a bit american to me and this is an English forum and the cars we are talking about are from germany so maybe we could do with a new logo?
there were only so many ways we could make a vw shape without getting legal threats from vw (again). Sorry but the logo stays for now.
Ah ok i see, that should be alright.
Woah, i cant believe vw would threaten a forum that is about their cars. Its alright then thanks for your help,
Marcusthere was just the teensiest amount of logo/trademark infringement on my part so it wasn’t ubnprovoked but still…I think we made peace in the end.
