Post your thoughts on how to improve the VFL Footy website.
Hi all, just letting you know that an upgrade to the website will be happening about a week after the grand final. With a bit of luck the site should only be down for a couple of days.
Hi all, there has been some issues with the website over the past 3 or 4 days. The website hosts are aware of it and working to resolve the issue that's affecting this and several other websites.
Cheers,
David /NorthPort
Apologies for the site being down.
Unfortunately someone hacked into the website over the last day.
Hopefully they move on to something more productive with their lives.
Just trying out a link to keep people up to date with the latest VFL news online.
A link to the full page can be found here:
http://www.vflfooty.com/aggregator/sources/1
I'd like your feedback on whether you use the link at all over the next few weeks.
In other news I am hoping to revamp the site, to make it more mobile friendly, and to better integrate with Facebook as the VFL has a healthy support on that platform but has not really resulted in the people posting comments on the site.
cheers,
David.
Hi all, just letting you know I've made a few changes to the site today and will probably make a few more minor changes in the coming days.
1. News articles should now have a 'last unread' button, the same as Forum topics (so you shouldn't really be able to tell the difference).
2. New forums created:
* 2015 season created
* 2014 moved to historic section
* Media board created (covers peoples comments over media coverage of the comp)
* St Kilda forum created under club boards
* TAC Cup forum moved to Other forums
3. The 'recent activity' column on the left now shows only the last 7 active topics and now contains a link at the bottom of the colum to show the next 8 to 25 most recent comments.
4. The news topics are being updated.
5. Any user can now add a new article. Robbo or myself will be able to publish it. Basically this means any VFA/VFL news article you submit will require:
Source (eg. The Port Phillip Leader)
Reporter (eg. Paul Amy)
URL Link (eg. paste website address)
First 3-5 paragraphs.
6. I'm hoping to get the audio/video/gallery areas up and running but that requires a bit of tweaking.
cheers,
David.
How on earth were the dates in "My Messages" changed from sensible to the stupid (stoopid) American way of putting dates?
Please revert to the proper way.
And, remember the US's massive concern over Y2K, due to the reducing of years to only the last two figures. It was self inflicted.
Is it possible to get my username changed? Or will I have to sign up again with my new name?
Thanks
Marc

A few have popped up in the last day, when some kind of update broke the normal screening process. Hopefully that should be cut back a bit (at least for now).
I'm trying to get more colour up on the site, so this weekend, take a photo with your smartphone, or bring a trusty camera along. All forum posters should be able to upload pictures in the forum threads.
