Hmm, might have to clear out your cache/cookies.

**jonathan180iq** · 12-02-2013, 03:41 PM

Agreed, Alan. Something in your browser is resetting after a few hours. It works fine for me.
Are you on Chrome, Firefox or, gasp, IE?

I'm on firefox. (windows xp) Can you walk me through the resetting of cookies etc? My computer knowledge is not all that great. But like I said, it worked fine on the old site, and I've not altered any computer settings, and the user name/password is stored in the remembered password section of firefox tools.

Alan,

Go into Tools-Preferences then select the Privacy Tab. Click on 'clear your recent history' (in blue). Another box will open, tick cookies and cache boxes and then click Clear Now. Restart Firefox and you should be OK. Any probs. get back to me.

Thank you. Followed your instructions. Just switched the computer back on, this morning, and I'm still logged in, so everything's fine.

To any moderator out there...........I've added a new picture to an old thread of mine - Nothing to do with bikes - but I notice that all the pictures I put up on the old site have vanished, to be replaced by " attachments". Is there any way of getting them back, because it's a thread that I update every Christmas?

**jonathan180iq** · 12-12-2013, 10:18 AM

The nativity thread, right?

I'm not sure how far along Mike is with the conversion of the old attached files into the new forum.
If you still have the photos, I remember them fairly well, and I can host them for you and place them inline with your original posts. It'll also be good to have an off-site link to the photo so this doesn't happen again somewhere down the line, like what happened to some of the older how-to posts a long time ago. (I no longer have the original photos so recreating that would require one of you fellas taking some photos... hint hint

)
