Web pages have been updated to ver 5.1.2 https://www.tsbt.co.uk points there as does https://www.anguillanpirates.co.uk .
Board has been updated to latest ver 3.2.0
SSL certs have been installed.
Forum is now forcing a https:// connection. Upgrade is not fully complete as a few kinks to iron out.
Any issues let me know.

I'm having an issue about 50% of the time when I do a post or reply. When I hit submit I get a blank screen and nothing happens. If I hit refresh on the page it tells me it will have to "resend" the info. If I do that it then show me my post/reply on the forum as normal.

If I leave it in asking to resend and open another tab I find that the message was posted correctly.

This is quite frequent. I never used to have that problem but I don't know if the problem is on my end or the new forum.

You've done a heck of a lot of work Alez and it is looking very good!

PS: I really really miss the NEW POSTS and ACTIVE TOPICS button on the top bar.

I think it's on the forum side as I'm getting the same. Going to stop forcing a https connection and see if that helps. Might be that I just have to upgrade the server to more memory and cpu power as it may also be that the website simply can't respond properly in time because as you say it always posts but then it doesn't come back to you in time.
New posts and active topicsare still there. Look under quick links top left hand side of index bar.
Once I get some more stuff done I will look if I can code them as buttons again. I need to get a background image for the header banner as well as it's boring. Maybe some tartan :D

I've made a couple of posts and haven't seen the hang up. I may have been contributing to the problem since my bookmark wasn't secure and that was the way I was coming in.

EDIT: I just had another one and I was logged in as https.

Im certain it's the HTTPS that's causing it. No longer forcing on server. Use http until I get it fixed. Might just have to upgrade server to more omph

Actually still doing it whether I force http or https. Think the server is just not responsive enough. Also note that Prosilver Se is faster than Prosilver.

Tables seem to work.

Here's a table...
[table][tr][td]Card[/td][td]Memory[/td][td]SP GLOPS[/td][td]DP GLOPS[/td][td]Watts[/td][td]MSRP[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]GTX 1070[/td][td]8GB[/td][td]6500[/td][td]203 (1:32 ?)[/td][td]150[/td][td]$379[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]GTX 1080[/td][td]8GB[/td][td]8227[/td][td]257 (1:32 ?)[/td][td]180[/td][td]$599[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Tesla P100[/td][td]16GB[/td][td]10600[/td][td]5300[/td][td]300[/td][td](if you have to ask, you can't afford it)[/td][/tr][/table]

Here's the source, except remove the period. Had to add the period to display actual source...

My old postings with tables look sh*t and I can't create new ones, the option will not appear. The paint is almost gone from the F5 button...
