Well I find myself with a lot of time on my hands with one issue. I had shoulder reconstructive surgery and have one hand to type. I have a new "super power" tool helping with all the hard work, Claude ai app which is doing all the heavy lifting. It is like I have an expert senior programmer on staff. Here is a list of items already fixed and a list of what is in the works.

NOTE: Many of the updates are behind the scene formatting and script updates which require "hard resetting" your browser software to see the CSS changes being fixed and added. I may temporarily break things... my apologizes for couple days ago. I hard crashed the site and took about five solid hours to find a back door to fix.

The List - Forums:
  • Header and Footer for Forums mirror main website
  • CSS for Forum fixes long standing issue when mobile device switches from portrait mode to landscape and then back cuts odd text and board view
  • Removed Donation Buttons - Relying on Ads to offset running website costs which I personally pay
  • Ads less intrusive but not sure at what cost yet. Always trade off to user experience and making wife happy covering most of the cost to keep site up
  • Broken formatting fixed


Planned Forum Fixes and Updates In Progress
  • Key Threads Summarized and Placed at Top
  • Maybe a way to organize the data albeit outside the forums


Main Website Updates
  • Body Tag and VIN Analyzers Formatting Fixed
  • Body Tag and VIN Analyzers Updated to PHP 8.4 so do not break with future PHP Server Updates
  • Online Car Show Resurrected from the dead. Working version already exists with key functions needing built before public release
  • Search Feature Fixed
  • Background fixes
  • Speed boosts
  • Lots of formatting fixes and updates
  • Many more behind the scenes fixes


Updates Down The Road for Main Website
  • Redesigned Main website with focus on content flow and access
  • Commenting Turned On
  • FAQ Fixed and Migrated to new plugin as it is broken now
  • FAQ Cleaned up with updated content summarized


As always, thank you for your support - Geoff
