Toyota Website Updates This Week

[toyotafan]

We're working hard at completing a large list of updates to the website this week. Just FYI in case you try to login and there is a message that the site is down, try again after a few minutes because we're doing this is short bursts so we don't take the site down for a long period of time.

HI HO, HI HO ... OFF TO UPGRADE THE WEBSITE WE GO ...

I got a dozen or so small updates completed today. The gallery has been updated and we're working on a new front page with articles system as well.

There are a lot of updates coming today, the site might appear to be offline for a max of a couple of minutes at a time though.

Member's Gallery has been updated, it's faster now and there are a few more options.

Plus when you login now the "stay logged in" box will be auto-checked so you don't have to click it to stay logged in.

Just added a history features that needs to be configured, but it will allow you to bookmark your favorite threads and content on this site and also help you to find your previously viewed content.

Also just now updating TapaTalk to the newest version for those few hundred of you regular tapatalk users on the site currently.

We are playing around with a new style for the website, this will allow us to eventually launch a new "frontpage" theme where we can put articles and graphical links to some of the more popular sections of the site.

Here's some previews:

Going live with the new look. Any member who wants the old style can pick it in the bottom-left corner of the website in the "style picker".

good to see ads only being served to non-members, should have a notice saying something like " sick of these ads? register for ad free reading" or something!

 

[toyotafan]

Yeah, most of the invasive ads go away for members.
