OK, I think this is a problem, which I noticed.
I go to the More section, from the menu bar, on the TBHP forum
From there I select Tuners option.

Tuner sections asks me to select, City. Now this is how I go.
I select Mumbai as city.
and Now i select e.g Automech Exhaust (tuner)
and click on search.
Im taken to the automech page.
So far so good.
Now I want to check out some other tuners information. SO on the same page, I search for "Back" button, but i dont find one.
So I use the back button of the Browser.
Again It asks to me select City and Tuner.
Now when I select City, as Mumbai, the list of Tuners is not populated.

Would request Mods to look into this.

Attached is the Image. FYI, I'm using Mozilla Firefox .

Yep noticed that too. Either you need to change the city to some other city and then again change to mumbai to see the list or reload the page a couple of times. Happens in Safari as well (Mac).

This is regarding "page breaks".

I feel there must either be a feature to incert page breaks between ones post or there shall be an upper limit to pictures in one page after which the remaining photos and article go on to next page.

This I say because here keep coming some really nice treads, with lots and lots of beautiful photographs, but all on one page. Its a treet to see them but in anticipation of further updated one keeps refreshing the page, or when we see in subscripion that there is an update we open it again and again. But for many with slow speeds this could mean a lot of time for all photos to download again and again, also if someone is using an internet plan with download charge (like in my mobile) that becomes not cost effective.

So the page break in a thread should be based on the length of the page or numbers of photos.

The Reporting Post time needs to be decreased as now it is asking to wait for 5mins before submitting the 2nd Post.

The search also asks to wait for 10secs even after 10-20secs if research it will again say wait for 10mins

Working fine on my computer as well. Still, we will have our designers run a check on this.

Ym-enjn,

1. I see this as a temporary problem. Internet connections are becoming faster and cheaper by the day. It will only be a li'l more time before all of us are sitting on 2 mbps connections for 500 bucks a month.

2. Splitting is entirely dependant on the thread creator. That said, we don't expect members to wait for 14 replies before submitting the next installment of their report / content.

3. Use Opera / a browser that allows you to switch image display off.

Reduced to 2 minutes. Thank you.

Searching through the database is an incredibly server intensive process. Many will appreciate that we have left advanced search options available to guests as well. The reason behind enforcing this time lag is:

1. To stop the server from getting choked.

2. To prevent spambots from unnecessarily searching through our database, and using up server resources.

That said, we do have an alternate solution (google search) coming up very soon.

I think google search will be great if incorporated. I find the current search engine inadequate. Many a times i google search "xyx team-bhp" and then click on the link to go a particular thread on our site.

Can't we incorporate an option to see number of posts per page? Give options of 10, 20, 30? Will make the number of pages less and reloading time also decreases.

I'm assuming that was a typo and you mean 10seconds right?

GTO has mentioned the need to have this interval. 10 seconds is really short, so hopefully it shouldnt cause too much inconvenience - and ofcourse, the google search coming up will not have any limit.

Tejas,

It has been recommended that we keep it fixed at this setting to optimize the server performance for a variety of reasons. Also, changing this might affect threads with titles like "pics on page 5".

How about adding "V&C International"

Its time we opened up the windows and let some of our light out!
Lots of fellow enthusiasts out there just waiting to get to know us and share our passion.

what are your comments?

John there's no stopping people from signing up from abroad. Many do all the time. Perhaps I am not getting what you mean

I've posted a few items or threads that were N.A. based and they were shifted to BHP WORLDWIDE under "The International Auto Scene." Most recently was some information on a unique 1934 Ford Model 40 Special Speedster that I felt was worthy to share. They get lost there and need a home of their own..

My suggestion is to open up a new section that reaches beyond India by either;
!. Introduce a new Sub forum under BHP World Wide, "Vintage Cars and Classics International" or
2. Introduce under Pre-1950 and Post-1950 a new sub forum "International".

There is so much information and fellow enthusiasts that we can access but at this time we don't have a place or sub-forum to accommodate it.

I've been promoting Team BHP to a lot of my friends and some of the editors of car Mags back home as well when doing research in the U.S. are able to connect them to BHP.

I've got some 1915 Canadian Ford sales lit and a 1915 Ford Magazine that was used throughout the World and lots of interesting cars going through RM Auctions that I was going to scan and post, -- but will it get lost.

Hope this clarifies the purpose of this thread.

+1 here! Am able to view only page 1 of TSK's thread. If I move to second thread, I get this error.

OT: Seems like one of those most awaited site, which come up and within few seconds crashes due to high traffic!
