it will one day get done on the main board, but i havent got the strength to even start that one yet!! the problem is its just to busy now, i would spend all my days changing date formats!!

but at least we are part of the way there with the regular comp board. It should make it easier for gilla as well with her lists.

You could bring it in over time if you want peeps to change the date format from whenever onwards, after some time (say 2 months) most threads would be right

I'm trying to add September onto my signature but it keeps saying BB code is too large... does anyone know what that means? I was only trying to add the word September and a smiley

Perhaps remove all formatting (to do that highlight your text, click on the two blue A's with a red cross through in the top left hand corner). Then add September, then add your colours. You've probably built up some unnecessary BB code in your sig without realising.

the problem is the expiry date format has always been E: 01/01 but people just post it any old way!!! if they did it exactly as above you can search by end date using the same method as the reg board now.

I've just done a bit of investigationing. The roboform toolbar was there for me on the rocklouder comp in FF and IE. However I could hide the toolbar. It then said to get the toolbar back, rightclick on the webpage and then select roboform toolbar and it comes back.

Perhaps open the rocklouder popup, right click on it and then see if you can do the 'robform toolbar'

Brill That's it!!! Thanks everyone!

So like this E: 01/01 ?

I wasn't sure but I thought from an old discussion it didn't work with the / in it

When people notice an incorrect format date, they could post/pm a gentle/tactful reminder to the op to correct the format? If the community got involved with this, then it would lessen the burden of the board guides, and ultimately make it easier for people to order threads by title.

yeah kisto i agree and have mentioned it a few times before.
Hopefully people would realise its for the benefit of the board and not bein picky, but the lack of the space, or even using ; instead of : makes all the difference

catz747

E: 04/10 doesn't work though in the search does it?

iwannabeonthebeach

you cant search but you can sort by thread title and they will all be together

Ooooh i see
