Retirement and forum shutdown (17 Jan 2022)

Hi,

John Howell who has managed the forum for years is getting on and wishes to retire from the role of managing it.
Over the years, he has managed the forum through good days and bad days and he has always been fair.
He has managed to bring his passion for fish keeping to the forum and keep it going for so long.

I wish to thank John for his hard work in keeping the forum going.

With John wishing to "retire" from the role of managing the forum and the forum receiving very little traffic, I think we must agree that forum has come to a natural conclusion and it's time to put it to rest.

I am proposing that the forum be made read-only from March 2022 onwards and that no new users or content be created. The website is still registered for several more years, so the content will still be accessible but no new topics or replies will be allowed.

If there is interest from the ITFS or other fish keeping clubs, we may redirect traffic to them or to a Facebook group but will not actively manage it.

I'd like to thank everyone over the years who helped with forum, posted a reply, started a new topic, ask a question and helped a newbie in fish keeping. And thank you to the sponsors who helped us along the away. Hopefully it made the hobby stronger.

I'd especially like to thank John Howell and Valerie Rousseau for all of their contributions, without them the forum would have never been has successful.

Thank you
Darragh Sherwin

Adding Youtube video Links.

For some reason - since the last server upgrade - it has been not possible to add youtube videos by just posting their link. This has been looked into but so far no solution has been found.
So, for the time being, I'm suggesting this compromise.

Initially obtain the youtube link you wish to add and 'copy' it.

Now, open a topic you would like your video to appear on and click the little 'chain link' icon (above, directly below the capital 'B')

This opens a 'Link Settings' drop down option.
Paste your link in the 'URL' box then put your own title in the box to the right of that one (named 'Text') then click the blue 'ADD' tab and your video link will then appear in the text on your post. Click the 'Close Modal' box unless you wish to add more links.

Click 'submit' and then your post will appear with a youtube link.

This is how I added the video link for the 'Eels' post from Sunday.

Hope this helps until we can get the old method working again.

John
