Just making sure replying works as expected. We know the formatting on some pages isn't quite right and there may be some broken links, but hopefully the reorganization on the left makes some things easier to find!
Well, I'm just glad that y'all let me join! Thanks for making DLV a great place to race and train! Hey, is anybody going to be training on Monday the 25th? I have spousal approval to come down from Knoxville and workout... Thanks, y'all!

so i can see all of my own tweets, can i see other people on this forum's tweets as well? can i tweet to both of my accounts from this forum? if so, i may never need log in to twitter again!
I don't know if we have all the permissions stuff worked out, but perhaps so!
Click on my username, and there should be a "twitter" tab on there to see my recent posts.
Theres not an easy way to post something directly to twitter here as the integration is designed to let us post front page stories directly to the dlv twitter account, but if enough people wanted it, I probably could figure out how to make it happen..
Is there a way to change the titles it gives to posts if users don't fill in the Subject box? It's kinda strange taking the first X number of characters... It results in some weird subjects.
not currently. There are RSS feeds all over the place, as well as the "tracker" which should show up on the bottom left of your screen as "recent posts": http://www.dicklanevelodrome.com/tracker
Did the old forum do e-mail notification? It's something that could be done here pretty easily if there is interest.
But, after spending 4 weeks with nothing but my phone for internet, a "mobile-friendly" version of the site would be nice. Not all the features, maybe just the front page, forum (read-only even), and schedule?
For those times I'm at the track and I need to post if pursuit nights got rained out, or somebody wants to know if racing is still on, and all they have is a PDA or phone.
Just a thought, no need to jump on it since there are probably more pressing things to do.
1. already on the todo list: a way for people running events to easily post notifications about them using email, text messages, twitter, or something like that
2. now on the todo list, a mobile themed version of the site thats a bit more blackberry friendly.
If people want Twitter, we can have event-specific accounts. I can make a dlvpursuits or something and use that for race announcements. That's pretty straightforward to do -- the issue would be how we'd want to show those on the website, if we do. I know I post both here and on Facebook already, it's no big deal to add another 140 character place to post.
Thanks for working on all this. I'm sure I'll come up with some more out-landish requests...
So this would probably be overlooked by 99% of the people out there... but can we have the names on the Track Records page be linked into the results for that rider?

We could require people to choose a title but it is an extra hassle usually, or we just remove titles from comments altogether. Thoughts?
LEAVE IT THE WAY IT IS...
..and tell everyone to quit their bitchin'!

Is there a way to be emailed when there's a response to a topic I've posted to/created?

You could opt into the old one's email notification. Don't bother doing it just for me, I guess I can migrate over to RSS.
If other people are interested though, then it might be something to look into. Thanks!

Email
I'd like the option for email subscriptions.
Mobile page?
This is a wish-list, nothing to hurry up and do.

Suggestion number 4,080...
Can we have some sort of "Racing" category at the top level to house racing info? Right now it's going into the "other" category.
