Another tip that people might find useful while we are plagued with mysql errors...
Instead of clicking on links here, use your right mouse button (or hold the only button down on a Mac) and select "open in a new window". That way if you get an error, you can simply close the new window and try again from the previous page, rather than losing the page you were on too.
If you have got a glitch thread - it seems sensible to have a glitch solutions thread too

(this is much better than my solution)
Thanks WBB, you can collect your reward from my new gaff in Mayfair
and the bloody accustics on this site are shite
where did that echo come from :shock:
To get to the postcode setting:
1. Click "My Account" from the right hand menu.
2. This takes you to a page titled "edit your account", which has "Account Settings | Profile Settings | Forum Settings" written just to the left of the right hand menu.
3. Click "Account Settings" from that list.
4. Halfway down the page is a set of 4 radio buttons to choose " Show Other Members My: Town County Postcode None". Select the button to the left of "None", then click "Update" at the bottom of the screen
5. Look at the page to see if your changes have been accepted. If not, try choosing a town from the pull down menu just above the 4 radio buttons and try again.
Why do I get `Post a new topic` when I click on `Post a reply`?
Why can`t I find the button that allows me to modify/edit my photo ads?
Why do I persevere?
I`m going down the pub...
drink anyone?
I've mentioned this in the glitch thread, but as I have a temporary solution too, I'll repost here...
It's possible, with a little bit of time and effort, to find the location of members EVEN IF THEY HAVE POSTCODES TURNED OFF!
The 'my search' page shows distances to members who have their postcodes turned off.
By moving your location then searching again it's fairly simple triangulate locations. For example, if I wished to stalk a particular user I could find out that they are 107 miles from East London, 57 miles from Devon, and 28 miles from Portsmouth, which narrows their location down to a very small area.
If you are worried about your privacy, I suggest that until this issue is confirmed as fixed, you change your postcode to something chosen at random.
Okay this is the only answer i can come up with , which just might get me banned is called pissing in your own corner, when someone new takes over any part of an orginization they just have to **** with it , why because they did not design it , the fact evrything was working fine beforehand is of no importance because new terrotorial lines have to be drawn in the sand , it justifies the wage packets and exsistance of new employees it strokes the ego of the new owners in their vision to bring something new and different to us poor suffering souls , the fact its now crap for all of us is lost , this ladies and gentleman is called pissing in your own corner.
Lots of love ............Andy

missing your avatar pic sophie :cry:
If you're getting annoyed by all those ///// in your sigs, it's the apostrophe that's causing it.
If you're not too pedantic, you can use the acute accent character ´ instead and that works fine. The code is Alt+180.
ice, i have tried that code 4 diff ways now lol, and just made myself look daft.
think i will stick to / lol
