Feedback on new site thread

BB.. I cannot make this work without advertising - still trying to find a formula that allows me to even earn £100 a week. Surely you can put up with adverts when you realise I have changed this format by request from posters but am not even earning my £100 a week that I got for years from Rivals from this.
 
I'm having issues with automatic spell checking in firefox on this site. On other websites as I type if I misspell a word it gets a red underline but on this one that doesn't happen.

I've checked my browser settings & they are fine.

I've rightclicked, inspected the element and the code says spellcheck="true"

I haven't added the word to the dictionary by mistake, even if I deliberately mizzpeII vvords they pass through perfectly fine.

So I'm not sure what I can do to fix the issue.

Is anyone else having similar issues (and hopefully have fixed them)?
 
Am just testing it now and spell check seems to work ok for chrome but as you say not in Firefox - I wonder if that is anything to do with the recent Firefox upgrade.
 
Firefox - Top Sites
Thumbnails of the top sites I visit & the one for here comes through with white text on a white background.

Thanks for talking me through that - any website I try to type in other than a big corporate one seems to come up with an empty square.
Current Archaeology.. When Saturday Comes. I have in my list sites like ebay that I hardly ever use and reddit that I have never ever used. Don't know the answer. Is it just full of set sites and anything you put in yourself is an empty box - customised. Although your list seems different to mine. You even get a different response for fmttm.com
 
It this circumstance isn't anything major, to appear in those icons/buttons you'd have to be someones favorite site & so they'd know which site is which & click on you regularly enough, but just thought I'd highlight it in case there is a code somewhere that is saying white text on white background rather than white on red.
 
Not sure about the code..
Borehamwood - do you mean you want everything smaller - which surely you can control yourself or do you mean everything is smaller.
 
With regards to email notifications is it possible to amalgamate them? If I log in and comment on 3 posts I quite often get 3 separate emails almost at the same time to tell me someone else has commented. This is sometimes followed by a few more as someone else comments.
 
Probably best then to turn them all off in your profile.
Am wondering if the spellcheck will be present in the new software upgrade. The only trouble is we have no idea which version of Xenforo we are using - bizarrely there are no indications at all in the admin, on this site or even on the package bought in the first place. If anyone knows how to tell - it would be a help.

The image that appears is determined by what is provided and then what the browser can approximate. You can create a set of favicons for your site in different pixel sizes e.g. 16x16, 32x32 and the browser will use the most suitable of the icons provided. If no icons are available the browser will try to create a thumbnail from the most visited part of any domain you hit. For a consistent logo to appear in people's browsers and on devices you need to create an icon set (or pay someone top dollar for them (unless you know someone with an artistic bent and plenty of free-time)). They just sit in the root folder of your website.
 
surely time to move people over now and increase traffic therefore ranking on this site now? there's very few post a day on the old forum now. Over last few days its only really been the top few posts that have had any updates. There's posts at the bottom of the page from the 27th, page 2 goes back to the 23rd. Already the CoB dross are starting to appear out of the woodwork over there calling people chebs etc
