I can go to the various sections except the ones that want me to download a browser extension.

If you're talking about the VTCI Forum, it's working for me, but I am seeing that the Club's home page is missing the pull-down menus right now.

https://www.vintagethunderbirdclub.n...hp?f=6&t=16122

I haven't notice any problems yesterday or today with the Forum pages. It's not like I have a 'special' connection or anything, though...I've paged the website administrator via VTCI's Facebook Groups page to let them know.

Okay here's what I've found out from VTCI's Publications Director/website administrator earlier today. The website's home page and other pages for things such as new member and renewal info, Country Store, contacts, etc. are being revamped and cleaned up as I type this. The pull-down menus are going bye-bye - a lot of the previous pull-down menu items will be replaced with links to updated pages, while a number of old pages are being pulled off (which ones I don't know). And apparently she's planning on putting up more photos. Not sure when this will all be completed but apparently this has been in the works for a while. The "Forum" portion is not being touched at this time, and the VTCI's Facebook group is up and running - there was a link added for it on the updated home page.

Thanks Alan - I have been able to get to the forums (directly ), but oddly I cannot save my user name and password, even though I click on save (remember me). I guess I just have to wait until they finish and see what I have to do.


If you have a good site address (mostly interested in the forums) I would appreciate it. Using vintagethunderbirdclub.net just brings me to the second page with no menus

Alan - same deal as above. Below brings me straight into the forums, but when I use the remember me thing it doesn't work.


Did they change the rules ? I am not a member of VCTI but you didn't have to be to access most of the forums.

That one I don't know the answer to as I'm not in charge of managing the website, Forums or access to them. We did just install an update to the software on Friday, February 3rd:
https://www.vintagethunderbirdclub.n...ic.php?t=20927

I can tell you that VTCI's home page has been revamped to remove the old pull-down menus and replaced some of them with live links: there is a link to the Forum toward the top of the page https://www.vintagethunderbirdclub.net/ to take you to the 'home' page for the Forum -

https://www.vintagethunderbirdclub.net/phpBB3/index.php

If you're having problems logging in you may need to check your Forum registration - go through the FAQ section
https://www.vintagethunderbirdclub.n...p.php/help/faq to see if there's anything there that will help.

Checked in yesterday - everything seems good now. I guess the revamp is finished.
