TAMB1 Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 As you may all have noticed the board has underwent an upgrade this week. As promised we have started the process of improvements on the board and we hope you will all approve and like what we are doing. We have given the place a lick of paint and hope to improve the experience further with some new features and things to make it a better place to come. We will continue this over a period of time and some things may be trial and error. We are always happy to listen to any suggestions so please feel free to post any suggestions or ideas you may have. If anyone has any problems or wish to contact us then post, PM or email us team@tamb.net The TAMB Team.
fringo Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 PS, I like the Recent or Popular Post bits down the right hand side.
scottincarlisle Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 The home page seems a bit busy now but its something that'll get used to.

Ormond Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Change the Anything Goes and Non TA fitba’ pages back around. I keep hitting the wrong one.

Makes the home page too busy. It also only shows you who opened the thread as opposed to the most recent poster which means you can be going in to a thread that's not had any updates.

TAMB1 Posted October 24, 2017 Author Posted October 24, 2017 We've made some more minor adjustments to the sections. Your suggestions are appreciated and we will continue to take them on board.
GhostZapper Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 well done for taking on board the hassle of this! Stil la very valuable source of info and planning when going on TA trips
Broath Boy Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 The bullet point at the start of each topic which if you tap it takes you to the first item of unread material in the topic could do with being larger, my fat fingers tend to tap the topic heading each time instead of bullet point.
Auld_Reekie Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 Like the general software upgrade. However, the look'n'feel feels very busy. Recent/popular posts seems unnecessary and the amount of advertising is off-putting (although I understand need to generate income. Good to see some activity around the upkeep of the board though. Well done all.
DonnyTJS Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 @TAMB1 etc: Could you confirm that the TAMB archive has been lost?

However it is quite a big job to get it all transferred and back online so It will be added to our "At some point in the future" list.

Thanks, TAMB1, much appreciated.
DonnyTJS Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 It's back! Thanks again to those concerned. Now I'll be able to link to a plethora of ancient posts with a smug "See, I told you so ..." whenever I wish, to the delight of the entire board. (plus all the mundane 'classics')

Hadn’t even had the chance to finish the testing process. For everyone else’s info the archive board has been transferred and can be accessed from the Pages tab at the top or through www.tamb.net/archive

(plus all the mundane 'classics') What was the thread about Jimbers’ bus chick and also the one about voting for the Dad’s lassie?

Both those are gone, I think. The 'archive' now available through the Pages tab is the tartanarmyboard.co.uk board (the one that was discontinued mid-2014). The furthest back you can see on there is 2009, apart from threads that were locked which go back to 2008, and a sub-forum of threads that the Admins archived because they were considered important. I suspect everything earlier was binned to save server space. As far as I can see, neither of those threads survived. To access what does remain, you need to go into a forum of the archived board, hit the 'Custom' tab and switch 'Time Frame' to 'Show All'.

DonnyTJS Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 You have to enter one of the forums first, like 'Anything Goes ...'.

(plus all the mundane 'classics') Please don’t take this the wrong way but ffs Donny you’re a pain in the erse. Working my way through ‘that’ thread again! I know I’ve said previously I have time for other boards, walking the dog and work but I now think I’ll have to pull a sickie as running short of time and not finished reading. Bonus is I’m self employed.👍🏻
