  1. On further investigation it looks like they have an issue with the IP address which is shared with other web sites so it's possible there is another objectionable one. I have contacted McAfee for a review/more info.
  2. That's odd. Are the settings set quite restrictive to block forum/bulletin boards? McAfee doesn't seem to have any issues with the site in general.
  3. Sure. This is a public community, post away and any members that can help will. The History Hollow forum is a good place to start with any questions on that topic. https://www.bedlington.co.uk/forums/forum/14-history-hollow/

  5. It looks like they let the sixtownships website domain name expire. I have removed the link and added one to Past Times History Group in its place. Thanks for pointing this out.
  6. Top right of the post, click the 3 dots.
  7. I have made the defaults a bit more aggressive. These will apply to new members.
  8. I have made some more updates to the site for 2021. Generally the look & feel has been cleaned up and compatibility with mobile devices has been improved further. There are still a couple of things being worked on due in the next couple of months.
  9. Incidentally storing all your passwords in plain text in a spreadsheet is a very bad idea. 😉 What you need is a password manager such as LastPass or 1password. Next best is your os/browser password manager (what you are doing when you opt to save usernames and passwords after logging in). The difference between this and a spreadsheet is the passwords are stored encrypted protected by your primary password. https://www.getsafeonline.org/protecting-yourself/passwords/
  10. It sounds like your browser is automatically deleting cookies when you close it. The “remember me” functionality on websites relies on cookies being allowed to persist between sessions. If the login cookie is deleted you get logged out. which browser are you using? It could be the browser settings themselves or an extension.
  11. Yes it's an option in the privacy menu when creating an album.
  12. Today’s funeral I gather was for Bob Wright (Wrights of Bedlington). I used to look forward to a sly cake from them on Front Street West after school.
  13. 😂 I added a poll (nominations still open). My vote goes to Eggy for maintaining a fantastic gallery and Canny Lass for the quiz.
  14. Happy birthday Eggy! 🎂
  15. I've updated the album so anyone can add images.
  16. Yes, provided they haven't disabled mention notifications in their settings. By default it is on.

  18. I sent you a private message to resolve this so private info isn't revealed. Thanks for the suggestions folks.
  19. I have been working on some changes to the website that will be going live in the next few weeks. This is mainly to simplify the experience and refresh the look a little. While I'm working on it I thought I would try and gather a bit of feedback. Does anybody have anything they find particularly annoying in the current site or any other things they feel are missing that should be available?
