Is that an app on a cell phone (I didn't know there was one!)? It may be that you would have to use the web version to get the resize. You may see the control in the bottom right of the box:

Yeah I don’t get any of that :)

I’ll have a look though

I haven’t used a personal laptop for about 2 years haha

So access this site through safari on my phone and photos stored on imjur app that accesses my phone camera images.

I'm not an admin, but (as far as I'm aware) we don't have the image resizing stuff turned on / installed / not available in our (older) version of vB...so it all needs to be done on the hosting side, sadly.

I've asked an admin if they've got anything to add.

cheers

James

Thanks mate - I’ll log on from a computer and see what it looks like :)

On my forum I can just add width=“100” to the IMG code

One of the admins has confirmed to me that it has to be done on the hosting side on our installation on vB, sadly.

cheers

Testing something I read online

If i add a lowercase L or S to the end of my imgur link I can change the size - the above is with an L and the next one is with an S

I’m struggling to edit my previous posts now - help I can’t see the button


Anyway - the light is fitted, working and switches on when I lift the bonnet ;)

Yay

Ah - the edit function times out after a certain amount of minutes

That’s because the Time Limit on Editing of Thread Title (default: 5)
Time limit in minutes within which the topic title can be edited by the user who started the topic.

I’ll see I can do

Yes, you’re spot on. It’s a historic thing, from a dark time when a rogue tuning firm were advertising their shoddy wares on the forum, and then going back and editing posts to make a nonsense of threads whenever they were challenged. Arguably the time limit for edits could now be removed, in fairness, as all that’s ancient history.

I think you’ll find the magic editing pixie has changed them for you, anyway ;)

cheers

So been fettling today

Test fitting of a 3rd row of seats

Picked them up for £50 with a load of fittings

The flap that opens for the under floor space already had the fixings in it so 6 x bolts and it’s in

https://i.imgur.com/5joFCo5l.jpg

Just needs these bits drilling and bolting

https://i.imgur.com/kUrA4wBl.jpg

Now just to work out how the seatbelts go in

I think I have a few bits missing though and maybe a few extra bits

https://i.imgur.com/lZD1kG4l.jpg

if anyone has any pics of the mounting points for the belts then that would be very much appreciated :)

JJ
