Upgrade completed

Post by Manitou »

As I mentioned in a previous post, the forum software was due for an update. There was still a little fighting with it, but it is completed now. You may notice a white "Chinook RV" near the top now. The software needed that as a "title" for the forum to prevent emails from going to the spam folder. For a while now, I've been getting reports of new members having difficulty joining because the email address confirmation message was going to the spam folder. I don't like the side effect of the white "Chinook RV" letters near the top.. but until I find a work around.. we just have to live with it.

Hope all is well.
As always, feel free to alert me to issues.

thanks.

Forgot to mention.. I took this time to make 2 other changes as well.
1) added .jfif as an allowed image file upload type (seems to me just another form of jpeg that windows10 is pushing people toward for some reason)
2) changed the Q&A part of new user registration to google "captcha". We've had some odd new registrations that has me questioning the legitimacy of. Hopefully this is a better method of real human verification. We'll see..
