The Grumpy Expat Forum

The time on the forum and that of the posts seems to be an hour fast. :) My last post says it was posted at 12.35am but the time now is only 12.08am and I posted it some time ago. Is it something to do with BST/GMT?

EDIT: It only seems to be wrong when I'm not logged in. When logged in, the time seems fine. Not ...

I have real trouble staying logged in to the forum. Whenever my IP changes, the forum software automatically logs me out. That means I have to log in again, and a few minutes later do it all over again. I haven't noticed this with other forums. Could it be the same with all phpBB forums or is there a setting on this forum that could be changed? Any help greatly appreciated. It has taken me ...

This is not a problem but more of a 'suggestion' etc but there isn't anywhere to put it so will put it where it will get seen.

When I try to send a PM, they mysteriously go to the Outbox after hitting "submit," and remain there. :? :? :?

I have a 4 Mbps DSL connection and all of the Grumpy pages have been loading slowly for the past couple of weeks. I know it's not my connection because other sites, even ones in the U.S. load very fast.

When I first joined the forum I opted to receive notification of replies to posts. I did this in the User Control Panel.

However, after receiving a great number of emails in a short space of time I decided to cancel notification. To do this I went back into the User Control Panel. However, that did not stop the emails.

I reported this to admin who looked in to it. Admin never got back to ...

From time to time we may experience problems with the software or a member may not understand how to perform some function. Please give full details here. Doing so will help the technical support people to identify the cause and deal with it.

At the moment, a few members are finding that some posts or PM's don't get through. One member reports that page changes are slow. These are having attention but any additional examples ...
