Just to let you all know that the Club Motorhome website is undergoing some major work at the moment
It's possible there may be a little disruption during the process but I'm working to keep that to a minimum....
So far you may have noticed that the Blog software has had a major update and the Article Comments software has been changed.
At the moment I'm fine tuning completely new forum software on a test site and will implement that as soon as I have it stable! There is also a huge change taking place to the chat/activity/member profile software which will make the site so much more socially orientated! These changes should be in place in the next few days so don't be alarmed if the forum or site go briefly offline - it's normal practice
Once all that is in place and running nicely there are some equally huge changes coming along to how the website will look and feel - and together with the previously mentioned changes/upgrades will make the site much easier to use for communication between members.
So, apologies for any interruptions and thanks in advance, for your patience during this process :thumbs:

Well, the forum software is in place and subject to some more tuning seems to be working well 
There's a lot more to do though to bring all the changes together....
In the meantime please play around with the forums and try out its features - one of which is a completely new private message system. So simple to use, just click the small white envelope icon on the toolbar and send someone a message - even if its only me!
More work to do tomorrow.

Today's progress has seen our very own 'Social Network' installed and is up and running
Logging in and out is now done through each member's own Page
So, can I ask you to please have a look at it, get yourselves logged in, poke around with it and post some stuff - photos, comments, likes etc.
The next developments involve a completely new look to the website which will also tie all the new changes together...
Oh, nearly forgot to say.... We have a new membership level - 'Social Member'. This level gives access to all the new Social features and the forums and it's FREE! Full membership still provides the benefits of the rest of the website's great information resources
Do make use of these new features and please let me know if you find things that don't work quite like you think they should!

I hope you're all getting use to the great new features - it certainly looks the case!
I'm nearing the stage where the new 'look' of the website will be implemented
This involves a lot of manual input by me so it's quite likely the site will go offline for a few hours while this takes place. I'll pick what I hope will be a quieter time so as to not cause too much irritation....
You can expect this to all happen sometime in the next few days

And, we're back online!
Seven hours I think..... Big changes done - hope you like the new look....
Lots more to do with the content layouts but all that can be done while the site is up and running.
I'd be grateful for any feedback please - good or bad

One observation is that it seems you have to go to your personal home page to see messages friend requests etc when most sites do this on a form of communication bar which can be seen on any page
Good idea although I haven't seen it on other sites other than if they are 'just' forums or social networks but I've had a little experiment and put up a toolbar on most other pages. So we'll see how that works out
Thanks for the feedback.

Loving the total revamp, the whole site seems to be quicker and has raised the bar for other motorhome sites.
Just hope it increases the posters of the site from our new members.

Thanks @Traveller_HA5_3DOM# it is quicker now for various technical reasons and this should still get better with upcoming improvements
As far as posting goes I can only make it as easy as possible and I think we're there on that one, so we'll see....
Best regards to you both

Site looks good - a testament to all your hard work
Now it is just up to the members ... afraid this one might take a while to get her head around it ... will be fine when I have sussed out where you keep the help files ...

Much improved website. When I first joined I found it difficult to negotiate the pages and it put me off. Much easier now. Well done and looking forward to being a new and active member.
