RS246.com Upgrade

[V!per]

Phil - looks like the links to other sites are opening in the same window/tab instead of new window/tab


BTW that one looks different from what we were testing

I'm hoping to meet up with Paul on the 7th march when he's in Brum so I'll get you a bottle of whatever you want. What's your poison fella?

That's not going to work. We have to drink together

I'll have to catch up with on a day you're out playing with your NUTS then.

Sorry Phil but I will get you sweating
The option to hide unwanted forum category - should it stay hidden once it's been hidden??
Once I refresh the page it expands itself.

Not sure if you have done something but got to the website again and this time the collapsed forum stayed collapsed.

Purchase made just now, thanks Phil...

Just to touch on the purchasing from the gift Shop MrT. Could you try and sort some mugs out at all?, the gift Shop thread is locked so can't post about it in there.

We got some made a long time back but they never sold and we ended up giving them away to the Site Sponsors. I think the problem is that they are low value and expensive to ship.
I just had a quick look and the cost to source is going to be about £400 for 70 mugs. Add on the £4 for P&P and that's £10 per mug already. Then delivery can be a problem as they won't fit through a letterbox. I don't think it's worth the return on investment.

I did consider pens though. Always need a pen in the car.

Will get them shipped asap. Thank you

Embedding a YouTube video isn't working:

e.g.

Resident RS246 Bogan vs Chunks Mum video:




^^ quote me, video is not appearing.

[Shinobi675]

Good stuff mate! That YouTube video works from tapatalk.

[MikeFish]

I tried t oembed a video earlier and it didn't work either. Pretty sure I saw the thread starters name when browsing on my phone earlier so thanks for that!
