Hey Gang! You all might want to give CPP - Cummins Performance Parts a warm welcome. Jamie just signed up to be a vendor on the site as of tonight. Check it out. http://forum.mopar1973man.com/index.php?/forum/154-cummins-performance-parts/

Is it working??? I use it, and it seems I get the latests posts, rather than my search criteria.

If you got a PM notice about not being active disregard. I was attempting to fix that plug in but alas its broken and still acting weird. So its disabled once again.

Hey Gang... I just got another plugin for the site. This time after talking with people and other admin's I opted for the Garage feature. So for not a whole lot of money I purchased and install it to the site. This will take care of the... Signature problems - Now you can get all you mods and stuff listed in the garage and keep it up to date. Truck Of the Month - Now we'll have a place to gather up trucks and votes for them again. This suppose to have a featured vehicle feature so I'll get busy on that too. Members vehicles / RV's - Now that forum can be removed and use the garage feature now. http://forum.mopar1973man.com/index.php?/garage/

I've attempted to contact Dripley and haven't gotten a call back. As for Fire176969 he's been gone for quite some time. Both have been moved to Retired Staff group. So they are still welcomed to the site just removed them from their role of moderators.

Ok gang... I've been doing my research on gallery plugins for the site Invision Power Board gallery function by most is lacking in function and abilities. So I've been tinkering with Coppermine Photo Gallery as a solution. I'm working to attempt to bridge the 2 software together so members can float back and forth. So I'm started on this project and continue to let you all know what's up.

Hey Gang... There is a software update for the forum. http://www.invisionpower.com/support/guides/_/install-and-getting-started/upgrading-r19 So I'm going to look for some time to sit down backup and update the forum software to the next maintenance pack. This will correct a few bugs I've been fighting with and also deal with all security updates for the software. I'll try to keep you all posted on when the software update will take place.

When coming to the forum for about the last week or two whenever i click on view new content, it says there is no new posts. This is happening even if i'm not on for a couple days? Anyone else having the same issue?

It seems we are getting out front now and gaining...

Hey Gang... It's getting time to consider upgrading servers. I'm in the process of researching providers and options. While I'm doing this I'm attempt to look at the long haul and find a stable home that we don't have to change a bunch of times. I looking for a provider that is up to date with hardware, Linux OS, server software, and other things. I continue to strive to provide you all the best performing site possible.

For the last few weeks I get on here and I hit the "view new content" button and I get no results. But I go to the forums and I see new posts/threads showing up . I know I didn't change any settings but but Ive played with the side bar menu and still no dice. What am I missing here?

Posting this from my phone right now but as the title says I'm unable to use the forum from my PC, doesn't matter what web browser I use either.(tried FF, chrome, and IE same results on all) What it does is I can go to the forum and browse it just fine as long as I'm not logged in, but as soon as I log in I get this message Fatal error: Call to a member function sidebar_hook_latest() on a non-object in /home/content/66/2694066/html/forum/hooks/cfdsLatestAdsSidebarHook_a990c017576795d4b717536ff5c3661d.php on line 50 And am unable to access any part of the forum after logging in on pc

He's provided another great book for the library of the site we now have a 1993 Dodge Factory Service manual in the download area for other members to enjoy. Thanks goes out to Anoldbiker...

I've noticed some have a blue link to show details of their truck. Seems cleaner and shorter in a thread. Can you give a brief explanation on how to do this? I'm thinking it might also eat up less memory for the site.

I usually see if anyone has added to content I've responded to. (notifications) with the little red box indicating the number of new posts. I see Mopar1973man and Yankneck both responded to 'disassembled a vp44' early this morning ~8:00 am, Katoom also had one later yesterday..... but clicking on that link only goes to the last one yesterday at ~4:00 pm by Man4mopar.. were these lost in space?

And why does this site automatically direct me to the mobile version when I open it? I hate this blue.

Ok Gang... The old premium, silver, gold and platinum forums have been removed from the site. There hasn't been any activity on those forum in over 1 year. Now as for the few threads that where there were unarchived and moved to proper forums. There was a few threads with delicate subject matters I've took the liberty to delete and be done with them.

Seems really quiet lately. All vehicles running perfect or is it normal for low activity this time of year like church? People gone on vacations? No cell or wifi service?

It time to catch up with the rest of the site. The article database is not mobile ready nor compliant with search engines. So Here is what I'm up to. I'm going to upgrade from Joomla 2.5.22 to 3.3.x which now takes us away from the LTS (Long Term Service) to STS (Short Term Service). I've been trying to just wait till 3.5 which is the planned LTS but that might be a few years out. So I'm going to push forward and modernize the site for our mobile users.
