I'm still getting a few notifications going into Spam though the majority are going to my inbox.

I run windows10 and office 365 or Microsoft 365 as they call it, it regularly updates without you knowing.
I notice the Outlook no longer has a spam file!

Hi Pete,

I've taken a screenshot of all the subject lines of emails you should have received recently. Which ones have and haven't come through? I'm hoping there is a pattern...

Thanks,
Stephen

Hi Guys,

Little update.

I hope i get this right.

There’s not much that can be done about the emails, It’s down to the recipients email company on what they consider spam. It could be that other people have marked them as spam and therefore they’re moving to spam by default now.
It might be worth looking at your email settings.

They’ll likely be an update to the mobile apps in the next few weeks. As the iPhone app hasn’t changed since 2013! It doesn’t currently fit full screen on newer iPhones.

Hi Nerys,
Have you had to upgrade your PC software ?
You might have to go into your email setup and look at/change the email rules.

Hi Colin,
That sounds a bit strange.
What device do you normally receive your emails on ?
Are you using a different device that is set differently ?

Hi Roy,
I am not quite sure what you mean.
The problem is no matter how you start a thread/build log it very often drifts on to other topics a bit like normal life.

Hi Martin,
I wonder if it could be made easier to navigate to forum subject areas then the latest postings in that subject area, rather than random subject posting on the trending topics (right hand side or bottom of screen)
If I am interested in say building / construction I often find I reading about covid or general chat.

Hi Martin.
I've mentioned it to Stephen before but I think it would be good to be able to select the desired order of 'photos after uploading them.
Some members seem to have difficulty with this aspect and I also have to be very disciplined in this respect to upload them in the correct order and just one at a time.

Also....stop the site from converting/renaming uploaded videos from .mp4 to .mpg4 which causes problems too 😡.

And lastly, and possibly controversially 😮, a review of the points awarded for a well written and photographed blog or a considered and constructive comment and those awarded for a glib comment or in gratitude for a promotion !

Hi Guys,

I would just like to ask all members what changes or improvements you would like to see done to the site.

We do have a list of changes that are being worked on at the moment.
But we would like to hear your views.

I know it will be difficult to improve on an already fantastic site.
You can send a PM if you wish.
