Site changes for 2015

[Jim Oaks]

Winter is approaching, and I plan to spend the winter months working on TRS.

How could this site be more beneficial to you?

What would you like to see changed or added?

Is there anything you would like to change here in the forums?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Auto subscription would be great.

Auto subscription?

 

[Lariat]

To threads. I have to manually subscribe even after I comment in them.

I think adding a box on the side of the screen that has all the new threads that were created recently would be cool.

I've seen a number of threads asking for the diesel subforum to be moved under the "4 cylinder engines section". That's been asked for a long time now.

Also (just a suggestion so feel free to converse), maybe a "work Rangers Mods" or something under the "Special Interest Vehicle Use" For things like utility beds, tool storage or compartments, or other similar mods people have done to Rangers. Or just show off your Ranger doing work and what it's used for. Though that may be covered in other forums.

I still think a Garage subforum for workshop q's and other questions would be cool. But that might be getting out of Ranger territory.

*edit*
Oh, and a really big "TECH LIBRARY/ARTICLES" button that is very obvious at the top of the page.

I hear some members mention parts of the tech library need updating. Going through from start to end for revisions would help newcomers. ..

If we could get a list of page links along with the information that needs changed or added, I will start working on that. If it's mentioned somewhere in the forum already just copy and paste it here. This is where i'll be checking for things I need to work on.

Nobody has sent me any information about outdated tech.

 

[RangerSVT]

I've been looking, and now that I'm looking for it, i can't find it, go figure. When i find it, I'll post it up or pm you...

The pictures in this article are wrong..they're both "after" pictures basically, so one of them needs to be changed.

Getting users off the Facebook pages and start posting again on the forums would be nice.

Hi Jim. I am back and driving SVT's old Sport Trac now.

Other forums I am on have really suffered from that. Like the general discussion forum goes back for months.
