Please, can anyone suggest why, when I log onto the forum I only get 6 headings instead of 9 ?

Diecast Models, Group build photos & Help tips & ideas are all missing.

Today, I also notice I suddenly don't get the little green plus signs on the black folders to indicate there are new posts.

While I'm asking.....what is an Atom Feed & an RSS Feed, anyone please ??

thanks, arv

Nah, I logged out & then logged back in. Still the same.

I am also now getting 3 copies of replies to threads I am not involved in sent straight to my PC at random.Brick wall Brick wall

You may need to sign.......Dave.
I shall now make a sign in the general direction of Malvern & visit a forum that works.

"Not had anyone else reporting the same problems. "

Well regardless of that Pete, it's not working properly & I got 3 copies of your reply above direct to my PC.

CBA with it any longer to be honest.

Have you ever thought it may be something to do with your computer not allowing you to see this?

Looking at your previous posts you have been trying to log into the wrong forum. This is "Truck Model World"...not "Truck Moaners World"

ARV, what browser and operating system are you using? It's possible that there's an incompatibility with one of them. I haven't noticed the same problem that you're having, however, there are still a few glitches with the forum (I have just emailed Peter directly with another one I found).

I have noticed that logging out and logging back in resets all the "new post" notifications, so that might be why you're not seeing the little green +.

For your other questions: RSS stands for "RDF Site Summary" -- basically it's a system that allows a program on your computer to know what the lastest updates to the forum (in terms of posts) are and you can jump directly to the updated content. For more information you can go to RSS on Wikipedia.

Atom feed is a new one to me, but it basically does the same thing. More information at Atom feed on Wikipedia.
