Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

This thread on the home-page, "Hunting for snow in Kinnaur" when clicked, shows the error you see in the second pic. What could be the reason?

This was fixed shortly after you posted, thanks.

Right now you can use the Gallery section : http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/gallery.php

It has a Make/Model search on the bottom right. Perhaps in the future we will add a way to view all images within a specific thread.

Another way is to go to google images and in the search box enter your search term followed by site:team-bhp.com

This is due to the poster editing the text and quote tags incorrectly. If this happens, do report the post with full details and the mods will make a correction to the post I'll fix this one.

The "youve been quoted" PMs get generated even when a Newbie quotes you. The thing is, those posts are not visible until they have been approved by a moderator. In this case, it was probably one of Jethari's posts that triggered the notifications before they were approved.

If a thread has covered more than 1-2+ years of ownership and 50,000+ kms with regular updates, do report it and the mods will consider moving it over. Thanks!

Do let us know if you see any pattern in the behaviour.

Hi Rehaan

No pattern to it, it seems to be random and is still happening.

Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

In a scenario where I have a question which someone has already asked on the forum or I see a relevant question and want to know what people reply to it, Is it possible to "Follow" that particular post?
Sometimes threads, esp new car reviews, move so fast that if you check in couple of days later, significant discussion has happened on it making it difficult to sift for responses to that particular query.

Thanks.

Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

Just a suggestion regarding stickers. Why not have a separate tbhp member only sticker? This can have a separate area to get the handle of the member printed and then can be printed. Can be made to order to avoid logistical hassles. This i think would be good for everyone since others who wish for tbhp stickers can still buy them and the actual members can look at the member stickers to find who the fellow member at the wheel is. Just an idea from my side which may or may not be discussed earlier.

Quite easy. Just paste the link in your post. And please note to remove the ‘s’ if the link has https instead of http

Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

Hi Guys

Where does one post a classified for selling a cycle. I refuse to call it a gadget or an electronic item. And it is not a motorcycle. :-)

I get weekly email alerts for all the threads that I'm subscribed to. Every Monday, I would get loads of emails so I went to settings and changed it to no notifications. Problem is, even after doing it 2-3 times, I'm still getting the weekly notifications through mail. How to stop it permanently?

Unfortunately there's no feature to do this.

The stickers we sell are screen printed. Reasons are :
- Last muchhhhh longer, especially in outdoor weather conditions. (less colour fade, etc)
- More vibrant colours (vis a vis digital)
- Cost effective in higher production numbers

Adding TBHP IDs to the stickers would mean:
- We'd have to use digital printing instead (major concern is the life of the stickers)
- We'd have to set up a system of ordering and custom printing on demand, proofing, more specific sorting/delivering etc (seems like a lot of work for not much)


Not saying it can't happen in the future, but for now these are the reasons.

I'll expand upon what vb-san has said.

In short: you just need to copy-paste the link into your post on a new line.

However, there are a few things that could cause problems:
1) Ensure there is no https:// at the start, it should just be http://
2) Don't use the short

I'm guessing that you might have forgotten to scroll down all the way and click "Save Changes" after changing the setting? That button is easy to miss.

Hi Manolin,

Sorry - noticed that and then got caught up with something else before i could edit it.

At this point we don't allow the sale of bicycles on the Classifieds - hence there's no category present for them.

Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

Maybe a silly request but can there be a more 'corporate' TBHP skin that looks less like a forum and more 'official'? This is obviously for surfing during office hours :-)

Maybe even a 'quick, this boss is watching' button:

Try Standard Blue or Standard Red skin. These were restored back after the last upgrade.
