  5. Your Internet access is blocked.

    Sorry I'm not able to determine at what point you're having a problem. You say

    I spent this afternoon going through my list of - shortcuts & favorites = 50, on the old PC and creating them on the new PC - Windows 10 using Google Chrome to connect to the different sites.

    49 of them worked without a problem and the one that failed was my attempted connection to this group - Your Internet Access is Blocked.

    What is the address in your browser address bar when you get the error? Is "Your Internet Access is Blocked." the entire error message? Is there any further descriptive error?

    My last post (11.47am) is marked "hidden" and doesn't appear in the time line. Can anybody tell me why?

    There are a few common spam words in the filters you may have hit but I can't see anything in your post that would have caught it. I'll check on it though, thanks.

  16. Encouraging engagement

    in Chat Central

    Posted

    Not a bad idea. We can make the categories and albums public but the images member only but I'm all for keeping things open generally. Getting people to sign up doesn't seem to be an issue as there's a constant stream of members it's the engagement that is sometimes tricky. The advantage of Facebook is it's general social aim but it's also the big disadvantage in that pretty much everything posted there is ultimately doomed to get lost.

    We're working on allowing people to post before registering so that posting and signing up are part of the same process. Hopefully that will help.

  18. The future of Bedlington...from the past

    @Alan Edgar (Eggy1948) That's great to hear, glad I can help. They could have had one a lot sooner though if I had known. Tell them to get on over to support the local site that actually values and protects the content and isn't out to profit from invading their privacy 😛

    Incidentally I've just scanned a lot of old family photos, many of which feature people and places of Bedlington. Threegee is going through them and adding any info he can and I'll be posting the relevant ones to a public album soon.
