Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

    Hi everyone,
    Apologies for the down time you may have experienced last night and today.

    You may have seen a notification during the week letting you know that there would be some routine maintenance done by the data centre we use (third party) on Saturday evening, 11th August, and that some disruption might occur.

    However due to power supply issues at the datacentre which were out of our control, we had some knock on issues on the site. Ronan has done a great job and got us back up as soon as those issues were resolved. There may be problems or time lags with some posts and unread post notifications from 8pm last night onwards. I'm not sure if we'll be able to retrieve any posts that appear to be lost but we'll know more later/tomorrow.

    Thanks for your patience and apologies for the inconvenience.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
