A door with many ghosts ]]> Sat, 07 Jan 2012 09:51:49 +0000 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26456 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26249

Firstly, I never properly log out of SNW, I stay automatically signed in all the time. Whenever I come online, I directly check the "View New Content" feature to obviously see the latest posts and replies. But sometimes, like now for instance, there would be quite a list of unread things, I open a post and when I click on "View New Content" again for the rest, a message tells me there's nothing! But I haven't even read the other posts yet?!

Is there some time restriction on these posts? I know back in the days there used to be a field at the bottom of the page where you could go back as far as 3 weeks' worth of stuff. Don't want to go into the forum list all the time

HELP!!! ]]> Thu, 26 May 2011 12:23:10 +0000 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26249 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26227
The warning that is currently being shown by google in browsers such as Firefox and Chrome should be removed within the next 24 hours when the review I've requested has been carried out.

Unfortunately there is very little you can do as a site owner to prevent this kind of malicious attack, even with the latest security patches for the board and site source files, if someone wishes to exploit the site they will. The passwords for ftp and server access have been changed and this should prevent any further issues from cropping up. Rest assured that any preventative measures available to me have been carried out to prevent this problem in the future.

Thank you for your patience and I look forward to seeing you back on the site!

Cheers,

Site Traffic (Page Views)

To Be Updated...

Alexa Rank

3 Month Average: 1,273,819 - An Increase Of 48,443!

Currently The Supernatural World's monthly average has been affected by the period of downtime last week. Thus, the current monthly rank on Alexa does not reflect actual traffic. This stat will be updated next month.

Over the past 12 months The Supernatural World has seen a huge increase in traffic with monthly page views close to 600,000! This has risen steadily over the past two years at which point the monthy page views was a mere 250,000. New member registrations have also risen steadily which reflects the amount of visitors to the site.

The Supernatural World now enjoys the position of being the internet's No.1 supernatural resource. A leader in supernatural and paranormal related news, articles and discussion, The Supernatural World has put itself firmly at the top.

This is, in the main, down to the members who take the the time to login daily and contribute to the vast archive of topics and discussions. Without the members we have and those who visit the site we would not be where we are today. So a huge thank you from me for all the effort you put in to making The Supernatural World the success it is today. ]]> Wed, 23 Mar 2011 08:44:10 +0000 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26126 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26111
So if your name appears in green, congratulations and a huge thank you from all the team for your time, effort and contributions to the site.

Status Update Comments:

Members can now comment on the status of another member, assuming said member has set their status.

There are two ways of doing this, the first is by clicking on the Add comment tab under the member's status. The other method is by viewing the member's profile and commenting on their status there using the Add A Comment tab.

When member's have received comments on their status the number of comments will appear in brackets next to a new link...Show Comments.

Avatar Changes:

To keep the board looking sleak and tidy I've altered the permitted size for avatars...both in dimensions and actual file size. The new permitted sizes for avatars are:

• Your avatar must be no bigger than 120 pixels by 120 pixels in size.
  
  
• Uploaded avatars from your computer must be no larger than 100 KB.
  
  
• The following file types are allowed: gif,jpg,jpeg,png

Please be aware that the board will scale down the image if its dimension are too big, however, members will have to make sure the file size falls within the permitted size.

Currently I'm working on the icons, badges and images that come with this new skin. These are being replaced by icons that fit better with the skin, as apposed to the bold black that still exist. Whilst not all icons have been changed, the board index page is now showing the correct topic and category icons. The next point of call will be the black navigation bar at the top of the board page. I intend using a colour that is a little less bold but still allows for a nice transition between the blue navigation bar above and the white background of the main page. This may also be changed, whitespace is not something I'm very keen on.

The current board skin is now called SNW 3.15. As the board is upgraded the skin will reflect those changes by its version number. As edits to the skin are made the version number will change to reflect this.

This topic will be updated as further changes are made.]]> Wed, 16 Mar 2011 17:52:56 +0000 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26108 http://www.thesupernaturalworld.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26102
As with all upgrades, minor issues can sometimes crop up, whilst I'm aware of most of them there may well be a few issues I'm not aware of, if this is the case please don't hesitate to contact me.

I will update this thread when the upgrade has been completed.
