I dont know my IP, il get drew to tell you, im just thinking there is potentially loads of the general public who cant access the forum so I dont think just unblocking mine is the answer

Blog for "inner circle" is definitely possible, it's a standard Drupal Module. Don't need more discussion, just show me some content, because an empty blog feed screams "Fail".

As for not changing the template, you were fiddling with the design, rather than suggesting an actual functional change. If you were suggesting a drastic redesign, I might be MORE interested because the user would spot the difference without needing a side-by-side. Is this design broke?

Most of those are ex-soviet-bloc, it's a pretty short list. I'll work out which one isn't.

edit: the first one on the list was identified as Manchester, unbanned.

anyway, i can do a redesign if you want but really it just needs a few things sorting out, have a look through your emails I may have sent it you at some point...

to be totally honest the problem is the finished site dosnt look like the original design, I was 'fiddling' with it to find a happy medium so you wouldn't have to do too much work. (edited post as it came across rude but im frustrated!)

What's are we thinking Emyr, time for an update?, I don't mind putting the time in if you will be able to update it, it just needs abit of cleaning up and would be nice to add a blog we can all add to, what do you think?

Emyr, wrong thread I think but will you double check for people signing up, there's a guy called Dany who's in town when the north south thing is on and wants to play throw ins and maybe sub if there's a place going.

ok but will you have time to implement it? Im sure people will be ok with it its more doing the stuff we were going to do from the start and update the site to look like it should, any time I mention things its not to discredit the hard work you put into it its just to get it looking nicer and working better for us all, Im more than happy to give my time to doing anything i can to help

How doable is a calendar? It's hard for tourists like me to work out what weekends have tourneys!

There is already a Google Calendar maintained by someone in LHBPA. If we cant a calendar I should be able to create a view of our own google calendar with the LHBPA one linked.

Why do you care so much? If you need portfolio for a proper job, do some freelancing.

That's a bit dickish. He just wants the site to look nice. Is there a way to give Ste an offline copy of the site, which he can do some modifications to, which can be submitted back to you for a check over and then uploaded. I'd guess forum wise we'll use microco.sm when finished but the main site could be a bit better looking.

In the last month, only 27 of our website members have visited.

Of those, only half have been to throwins more than once in the same period of time.

Unless there is a renewed surge of polo enthusiasm in Manchester, there's no point changing this site. There is a tourney in Manchester in less than two weeks. The first NS tourney of the season is 6 weeks away. Why is the busiest thread about a person who doesn't turn up taking everyone mountainbiking?

I'll add a blog feature if you can show me some written-up pieces you'd want to publish. There's nothing worse than an ancient "under construction" page and if it's not about polo, it's not getting published here.
