There'll be more joining soon. Moons and co are back on with the recruitment drive at the moment. :thumbup: They must have received the latest brown envelope of cash.

Any suggestions gratefully received, but please note: As I understand it this site is a kind of site within a site so we don't really have a home page to stuff with things for a Google bot to find. I could be wrong though.

Yes being a sub domain of proboards.com rather than living on www.vwblunderbus.co.uk and running on phpBB or one of the other standalone and fully tweakable forum software is the main issue you will have.

Iv'e said it before in another place so I'll say it again on here, I know there are a few people who either don't use or don't like Facebook but the big Vw groups on there are buzzing all the time,and it's easy. I've only ever joined one Forum before this ( TLB ) and I found that by chance when searching Vw stuff, At the time about 5 years ago I wasn't on Facebook and the Forums we're bigger than now but these days it's all on Facebook, Why not start a VW Blunderbus facebook page. You can set the rules and I'm sure loads more would find it and join, Iv'e tried linking this on other pages but people ain't bothered no more, it's old hat to a lot of people and this system is hard to navigate, They want it all in one place and get notifications when people have posted, I rarely post stuff on my own normal Facebook page, it's quite dead really and to friends on there it looks like I'm never on, but I am on others Groups and pages all the time, People can't see your posts unless they are a member and if it's set up right they're great. Just an idea so I'm now waiting in anticipation to be shot down .

I agree with you Woody - I spent AGES redoing our local VW club forum, getting the spam controls tightened, nice new theme, made it easy to use on mobiles and tablets and 99% of people ignored it all and just posted on Facebook instead. The only people who used the forum were those who refused to sign up to Facebook but most of them either threw in the towel and joined or used their other halfs Facebook account to view the forum Fadgebook page

If we could make top result when you type in pornhub we'd be onto a winner. :thumbup: Thought I'd try that, I now have an email from the boss lady asking what have I been googling
