    The clock faces do nothing

    The coloured squares give you a bullet point

    The printer gives you a 1.

    Two fingers gives you an add link

    Balls gives you add video

    upside down tie is for emojis

    Super intuitive undecided

    Not read all the posts, but the orange box appeared when I logged in about 30 mins ago but it seems to have disappeared now/

    It's another thing slowing website down. My screen completely locked up when looking at CLs. Ironically, neither live chat or the blasted question box worked!

    No I don't have a question. If I did there's FAQ.

    And I don't want to chat! 

    Please stop tinkering, my iPad is grinding to a halt, overloaded with superfluous "features". Keep It Simple!

    I followed that up with, name the 5 usual suspects - again no answersmile

    SteveL - thanks I've reported that ipad issue to the developers, they are looking into it - and we are still pushing on trying to minimise the intrusion on screen space - we have some new code in test this morning that will hopefully improve matters.

    Tinwheeler - I'm new to the club and definitely not a troll, apparently Ro is bestowing my "Staff" colours onto my avatar later today cool

    If (and it is still an if) we move forwards with this solution then it will eventually replace all of the FAQ content - you can see some of how it will work if you look on the "Contact Us" page.  This has been a worthwhile exercise regardless as some of the FAQ needed a bit of a spring clean - and thus far this experience has been more like a power wash.

    'FinkAngel', I certainly hope 'Ro' can do that for you. We were promised an avatar fix months ago, and still we have a dull grey box smile See if you can knock up a bit of code to a recognise a JPG when it actually is a JPG.

    Welcome by the way 👍

    Thanks, FA. I’m sure you can see why I raised the point. No staff banner and no introduction - well, it’s not very professional and you could have been anyone. A few words from Ro and yourself would have made things so much clearer. 

    I hope that is ‘if’. The whole thing could have been handled so much better. A few words of explanation and a shed load of common sense would have helped. 

    Ah well, welcome to CT.

    Ah, we both have the same problem Metheven, the last fix (which was delivered a couple of weeks ago) didn't work, as you can tell.  We are now working with a different set of developers - I'm confident things will start moving a lot quicker around here as of next month (once they are fully onboarded).

    Thanks for that info 'FinkAngel', a bit of information from yourselves at times would be appreciated, much better than us thinking we are being ignored.

    I missed it on CT but I’ve just had the pleasure of the orange box when I was on the UK sites booking page on my phone. 

    I rarely access the clubs website on a pc. I don’t have an iPad. 99% of the time I’m on my iPhone. The mobile site on an iPhone is a demonstration of how not to build a site. From the sideways scrolling to the new orange box the website is about as difficult to negotiate as any I’ve come across. It’s only beaten to the user unfriendly crown by some local newspapers who use the weirdest architecture I can imagine. 

    So I’m off to the app in future as so far that works as you’d expect.

    Don't you have a 'sand pit' site to play in for testing

    HI Fink Angel

    I would like to thank you for spending time on the forum explaining things to us. I find that quite refreshing. Many of the moans and groans about the forum would subside if we felt that we were being kept in the loop by those directly charged with sorting out the problems.

    David

    This is going to lose Club customers! I tried twice yesterday to access CL website pages. Both times I got the orange box and the live chat. The whole page just locks up, nothing works. No question posted, no access to live chat, and cannot make the page do anything. Use an iPad. Clearly once again the Clubs attempts at "improving things" doesn't work with Apple devices. Good job Apple devices aren't popular!undecided

    Back to the handbook until all the tinkering ends. A not happy customer who will be giving out nothing but negative feedback to others! First rule of marketing......keep your existing customer base happy before you attempt to find more!

    I see the box is now green not orange. Strange how the orange fitted in with new club logo and green was the old logo colour, website still has green. 😉
