Jio user here, and no - haven't faced this issue ever (and I default to the SSL version on both PC and mobile). Possibly some installed software (antivirus to malware) interfering.

Also did a Qualys test, the site passes with an A grade:

Adding a screenshot. Note that in my case it explicitly says "https".

Yes, we have considered this petrolhead_chn. Haven't found the perfect supplier - so have not proceeded as yet.

Yes, you're right. And this has been brought up a while back as well. I had looked into it then, and basically its not consistently used, requiring a manual check & change in all templates - so didn't put time into implementing the change.

Yes, those would be useful poll features for sure. Though unfortunately we're really limited by the software here... Will have to make do with the current options of single-choice and multiple-choice.

We've just increased the limit from 3MB to 4MB.

More details : http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/announ...-team-bhp.html

Server-side compression has always existed. However, what would be ideal is client-side compression. The existing solutions still have some drawbacks though (mostly image quality).

Hello, Can you please classify the Route/Travel queries section based on major cities?

Something similar on the lines of Team-BHP directory.

Please!

That is wonderful Rehaan. Do give it a serious thought. India is a large country and there is bound to be a supplier somewhere 🤔

I wonder whether we should have a separate sub forum for EVs and Hybrids. It'll be nice to group all EV / hybrid related discussions under a unique sub forum given that we may see more and more discussions, policies and products around these.

Thanks!

Just got the Error 503 again between 11:49 AM & 11:53 AM.
I’ve already mailed the screenshots of the same to you, sir.

Somehow I have been getting it almost on a daily basis in the same time range.

Firstly, I’d like to wish my fellow BHPians & their families a very HAPPY NEW YEAR. I hope 2018 brings to you all the joy in life, helps y’all fulfill all your dreams & purchase the steed you’ve always wanted.

Secondly, I have been getting this error quite often these days, both, on mobile data, as well as on Wi-Fi.
I’ve attached the screenshots from today morning for reference.
Has anyone else encountered this too?

Just to update on this. I just noticed it seems to be some sort of secure connection error.

Connecting to Team-BHP on http:// rather than httpS:// might be a quick workaround for now.

Also, like binand asked: do you have any anti-virus or internet security app on your phone?

Unfortunately, this becomes very tricky to do by city, or even state/region - due to the nature of our travelogues spanning across several locations.

This certainly might happen in the near future, once we have enough EV/Hybrid content.

Ironically, what might start of as a small section will eventually take over most of Team-BHP!

Is there a particular thread / page you get this on?

Asking since this database error isn't one we've seen members report repeatedly.

Did we get sponsorships from oriparts/boodmo (spare parts) and coverfox (car insurance)?

Noticed this recently while browsing without logging in.

I don't see the ad in the picture!

Even though I haven’t seen this error crop up since I posted about it, I must tell you that there was no particular thread or page that I used to get this on.

Not an ad. Check the header menu. Seems to have 2 more buttons in addition to regular ones (like forum etc) - spare parts (takes you to boodmo) and car insurance (takes you to coverfox).

Couple of suggestions,

1. When clicking on New Posts, can we get a Post created column added along with last post?
2. Is there a way to identify which thread has max views and replies?

govigov · 11th January 2018, 01:50

In addition to the complex registration system, I would like to recommend a referral system, wherein you can refer a friend or an office colleague to team-bhp. This should be capped, say, users with only 1000 posts or 1000 thanks should have the ability to refer. Also, to be capped to say, a particular user, once met the eligibility criteria, can only refer once per calendar year. To make it clear, the user that uses the referral link would automatically be approved by the system.

Is such a system in addition to the regular system possible.
