Gray Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 How much more homley could this site be. Chat is a good place to be, you just need to know when to be there, like now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 I've looked into skype & messenger in the past but with the likes of facebook & seperate utilities for messenger etc, I'm not sure they would be used or could work? thoughts Martin?

k4mrc Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 thoughts Martin? Lee my thoughts are if it is possible (like facebook sorry) it could be 'friends on line' then if at the bottom of the screen, little tabs (with the person Angle on) then people could chat privatley to each other as well as being on the site - seems to work for the other sites might make the site better!

Lee Posted October 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 I've not seen it Martin, can you give a link to a site using it so I can take a look? Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auto Key Wizard Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 we are getting more & more locksmithing & auto topics as many shoe repairers..... We put in place the trade section which to view you have to join the trade group which is a closed non-public area which was the place for trade specific topics such as locksmithing & pricing. I've never been a fan of a zillion section forums as it becomes to confusing as to where to post what. is it time to re-name or re-section the trade section? thoughts ? Simple solution would be to add Child Boards (i.e. Locksmith, Pricing/Costing, Automotive) to the Trade Group section Or add a Child Board to each existing board as required & accessible/viewable to Trade Group members only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted October 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I've not seen it Martin, can you give a link to a site using it so I can take a look? Lee Just bumping this remark, anyone else use a site like K4's????? my thoughts are if it is possible (like facebook sorry) it could be 'friends on line' then if at the bottom of the screen, little tabs (with the person Angle on) then people could chat privatley to each other as well as being on the site - seems to work for the other sites might make the site better! I could do with some links to see what they are using. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted November 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Following on from the October poll I have today introduced a new Trade User group only section as a sub section to the key cutting section specifically for Auto & Lock Smithing topics which you feel are trade sensitive. I’ve also reorganised the look of the index page into 3 area rather than 5. Deleting the legal, Classified & members sections & amalgamating them into the miscellaneous section. Guests Exclusions are Posting to shout box Posting to quotes Viewing or Posting to chat room Posting to Image gallery Downloading or posting to downloads section Posting to any forum Viewing forums, Auto / Lock SmithingTrade groupThe Cobblers ArmsThis Months PollH & S, Risk Assessment & Legal maters To become a member of the site (FREE!) click here ucp.php?mode=register Member Exclusions are Viewing forums Auto / Lock SmithingTrade Group To become a Trade Group user (FREE!) click here viewtopic.php?f=14&t=5304 I’m still pondering the finances, inc Ad’s or Fees, but if anyone wants to make an annual subscription via paypal to lee@cobb-lees.com I’ll send you out a receipt! & any donation you make will in my opinion be better value than any other trade association! At this stage despite extensive searches I’ve not come across any Facebook/MSA user utilities that I can implement into the site Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
