Is that phrase at the top of the page new? I've just noticed it.

I was wondering if there'd be a topic on that! Where's the AB logo gone?

It's just the name of the company that made the software and that the ABRSM 'rent' the webspace from. It's the logo that you automatically get when you set up an invision board - the abrsm had replaced it with their own logo. My guess is that someone's been playing around with the website appearance, and lost the abrsm logo. I wouldn't worry. This board has always been an invision board (i know cause I own one, and recognise the format!)

Yeah its just the logo that's gone. I'm sure it will be back as soon as someone at the ABRSM has time to do a bit of admin on the board. But don't try clicking on it to get to the ABRSM site as you will most likely go to the pro-boards site instead

Every time I try to read a thread I get a message asking if I want to debug. I have the choice yes, or no, but if I choose no, then the same message keeps appearing. It is soooo annoying. It was ok until 'Invision Power Board' appeared'.

The box on everyone's profile to see their profile statistics (e.g. the posts/topics that you've done) doesn't work either...
EDIT: You can't do Quick Edit either

No, neither you can. I can't underline, strikethrough either. I keep getting 'Runtime error..... do you wish to debug?' It is so annoying. Any ideas how to get rid of it??
Car Expert
Jul 17 2006, 03:51 PM
Weird... I don't get that! The underline, strikethrough, etc. comes out as text rather than as symbols on the toolbar...

I feel deprived - I didn't see it!
Some of the bits of the screen are not quite normal though - little red x's.

Is it just me or is the forum options pull down menu not working? I've got a little v next to it and it's no longer clickable.
Car Expert - yeah I've lost the icons that go with the text formatting buttons too. And they're also no longer clickable.
I think someone who doesn't know how the code works has been having a good play around in the admin control panel...

I'm getting little red x's too Maggie and I'm still getting the 'runtime error- do I want to debug?' message. No I can't de-bug - it won't let me, I want it to bug-ger off and leave me to read the forum in peace.

de-bug-ger probably means that the script's been messed up too.

Yep, it's the same on your profile, like I mentioned earlier.

invision hasn't upgraded though. My board would have been 'upgraded' had they done that. This is something a little more local, I'm afraid!

I think all the problems have been solved. Quick Edit seems to be working again, and so does the options on the topic pages and on everyone's profiles.

Anyone noticed that the functionality of the "back" button has been hosed by the forum "upgrade" ? It loads lots of cr@p from a style_images folder into the immediate history instead of allowing me to jump back out of a thread, for example, like it used to...
Ah, progress....

Jul 18 2006, 09:33 PM
Yes, I agree. And then you can't click back because it just redirects ya...

Wow. I just loaded the page in IE and they really have screwed this one up. This seems to be a rare occasion where FF works better.

If you use the little arrow bit of the back button and choose the bottom option, you can get back (sometimes you have to do it twice) - but I don't think that's the way it's supposed to work, is it?
