Happy Birthday Richard.

!! Could have sworn i posted this earlier but another mod deleted it !!🤔 Happy Birthday Jim, 50 Years young; old man!

As we are now pushing the international market i have added a few more plugins to help us along the way. First should be a bit obvious with all the little flags popping up around the sit. Simply put your accounts now highlight which country you are in; this works using geolocation of your IP address and is automatic but it can be changed manually withing the settings of your main account profile. Separate feature but linked to the above is the Community Map; accessed from the membership menu. This allows any member to again geo-locate their position in the world, this is not automatic and you need to enter your town or area manually. Please remember to not Geo-Tag your own home (like i did when testing) as it will then post a link to let everyone know. We will add sub categories shortly so that we can geo-tag meeting areas or car shows. All the features mentioned above are open to all but the last is for premium members only. Last of the additions is the live chat which is accessed by the light icon box at the top right of the screen or from the home menu. This is simply a direct chat facility for all Premium Members, handy if you need a quick discussion without waiting for replies or PM's. I'm happy to add extra rooms when needed but this feature is not to distract from the main posting of threads and chat is flushed every 30 days. If you have any special requests of features we should add then please let me know.

So just over a month now since this thread was posted and boy a lot has changed ! The club now changed to a more international style domain name, we have cleaned up loads of sections that are no longer relevant This is just the start, soon as we settle into our new home i think we should branch out and get some international mods onboard.

Thats right ! If you didn't already notice the club URL has changed for the first time in over 20 years. The club will now be hosted under the domain name of 'https://www.300zx-owners.club' which matches our actual club name. The long term aim is that we become an international club rather than restricted by the .co.uk domain which can put international members off. If all else fails we simply move it back; but i'm hoping this will not be the case and in the long run we keep this domain and the other which should now just redirect back to here. Moving on up let make this the best club we can. --- Also because the domain was changed i have started a search index rebuild, this may take a few hours to complete.

That looks smashing mate ??

Belated Happy birday Jeff. ? And happy birthday for your next too as this one was so late. ??

Long time coming, but we may have a documented road trip coming up.?

Welcome to the club

What you clicking on when you get that error?

Give the committee and email on committee@300zx.co.uk. One of us will get back to you on it. Lee

By national i actually meant to say international and use a new domain name but do it in a way that both work or the old redirects to the new. however 300zx.com belongs to z1motorsports and they wont be giving it up any time soon. Problem with moving domains is that so many URL's encoded into posts use 300zx.co.uk and it would be a fairly large task to go through the database to make that sort of change. I do have a domain in mind that could be used easily but it would be setup as a mirror site rather than replacement.

There is about 8 - 10 of us in total who run and assist the club and this site. The main crew, at least those who have provided details and a picture are listed here : https://www.300zx.co.uk/team/ The Sub-Committee as we call it now is a replacement for all the REO's and Moderators groups we used to have many years ago. My role in hear is all the IT aspects but i'm guided by the others on what needs done. Unfortunately things get side tracked and some of us are not online or active as much so we fall behind on things to get done. But we appreciate posts like this as we all need to get active and get things done. That been said the alot of the format of this club has now adjusted and old sections cleaned up and merged as they are no longer needed. Any historical technical information and FAQ's have been moved to the Premium sections as we believe they are best suited to that section. The club still needs to make some income to keep this place going so selling has also been restricted again to Premium Users. The club is already national as it is but i'm guessing we just need to adjust the sections to cater for them too. I do own some national style domains and i may try get these going as a mirror site so that the current and new domains work from the same databases.

Stops the annoying nag to switch to Tapatalk, that's about it.

No point, but people can be dicks. DoS attacks designed to flood a server with connections to a point it simple can't cope and crashes. The attack come from multiple places at once so hard to combat by trying to block it. But the ones against our server are tiny so no harm to us really.

And another BOT attack this morning. Like a fart in the wind, barely registered it and forgotten about just as quickly.?

Exactly, I get this too and hence the reason to see what peoples views are. I just want to ditch it as its no longer needed.

I have an android phone and use chrome, never had an issue and always found it very simple to get onto the site. It would likely take me longer to add an icon now that i'm used to the way i do things on my phone.

It's 1894!

Yeh, Tapatalk is a relic to the old forums and it is still used by some. Personally I never liked it even in the old days of the club. That aside, welcome and hopefully we can see your zed shortly.

So who's all still using Tapatalk. There always seems to be issues with this app and as the club works fine without it I'd love just to hit the kill button.

Welcome, For a start try using the site without tapa talk. I find it causes more issues than its worth. Access the site as a normal site as its perfectly mobile friendly.

Looks like we just has a Denial of Service attack on our server. Funny as we have a fairly powerful server for what we use it for courtesy of yours truly and the whole attack summed up a total of 5% CPU when i checked. Only thing it has done is up our most users online to 1659 which is displayed at the bottom of the site pages.

Your right, that was @pbryantknight, Looked him up and its a different reg plate so must be a few of these in the UK now.
