    Cheers mate
    Yeah that's my next job, have a look at styles, add our banner and add some extra buttons next to "Forum & What's New".
    Btw, where have they put the db backup options? It used to be in maintenance

    I got round to adding some extra buttons to, so there's direct links to the homepage and the shop.
    I will have a look at getting the banner installed in the next couple of days.

    As I said in my last post, I have added some extra buttons to the nav bar, but for some reason when you click "What's New" it just shows the old "Forum" and "What's New" butons and do you think I can find where to edit this ... No! LOL
    The search continues

    I upgraded us to vb 4.1.11 last night so we now have a mobile template built in, to use the mobile style scroll to the bottom of the page and select "Default Mobile Style" from the drop down menu on the left of the page.
    Enjoy

    No not really a big difference, lots of little things they have sorted out. Like the attachment window used to pop up in a massive window, now it's smaller. But the big difference is the addition of the mobile template.

    I would get updated as soon as pos as there have been security updates in one (maybe more) of the packages.

    I was having a moan on the vBulletin site earlier actually, I said it was a bit daft not having an option in the admin cp to add your Google Analytics tracking code - even though it's easy to add to the footer or header it wouldn't take alot for them to implement it properly.
