Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

    Forum Upgrades

    We have done a range of upgrades to the server today which took a little longer than anticipated, but everything should be back online now and operating as normal. If you run into any issues or wierdness please let me know ASAP through the forum or through Facebook if these are problems over here.

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

    Thanks for all the time and effort you put into this forum for the benefit of the enthusiast community.
    I know it's a pretty thankless task so just wanted to tip my hat in your general direction.

      Thanks for the kind words, it's very much appreciated.

      Today was a bit bigger than was initially planned (and there is still a little more tinkering that needs to be done). For the moment everything is back into one piece and humming along nicely.

        Nicely done to the crew.
        It doesn't go unnoticed and it certainly is appreciated, I know we as a community don't say it enough.

        I don't use Facebook so appreciate the effort here on the forum.

          Seconded. This is generally a great forum and that is largely because of the moderators. Top job.

            Just noticed that the "New Posts" button is working a little different. It's now no longer showing posts that you've read. Which makes finding a thread later a bit harder....

            Looks like it's only showing "unread" and not "new".

              I thought that was how it always worked (but let me know if it's changed after today).


              On another note, I had a couple of other reports of some strangeness which led to a little more work today and a little more downtime today as little more work was done. We are now running current versions of everything! A small novetly that no one will ever notice (if it's all been done right)! Again, please let me know if there are any more issues and I'll get onto them.

                "New Posts" is now threads with new unread posts which is probably better than threads you haven't read/posted in yet.

                I just hit Quick Links -> Todays Posts and you get all the posts. But it's not available on all pages for some reason.

                    Not sure if it's my browser or not but I've had it happen a couple of times when I post a reply and the page doesn't refresh showing my post. It is there if I go back into the page, however it's a little disconcerting at first. I'm sure you'll get a few double posts with people thinking something went wrong....

                        OK well I just shut down and re-booted my machine. So will see how this goes....

                        When I reply to the thread, the page doesn't refresh to show my reply when I hit the submit button. This is only when accessing the forum from my PC and not Tapatalk/mobile app as this works fine.

                        I have to manually refresh the page to see my new post.

                        I've tried editing as well and now I can see the "Save", "Go Advanced", "Delete" and "Cancel" buttons which weren't there before.

                        Maybe it's a Windows10 thing...

                          Images were a small issue for a moment during the upgrades so those buttons might have needed to refresh to show up, great to see they are working again.

                          My above edits/posts were done on a Windows 10 PC using Chrome, right now I'm sitting on a Mac, also running Chrome.

                          I will have to try out IE on Windows 10 when I'm back at work to see if that has issues. I might have to install Firefox as well...

                            And this post is Safari on the same Mac.

                              And finally on Windows 7 using Internet Exploder.


                              What is it your running? IE/Chome/Firefox?
