It's now easier to upload photos to Copenworld and share them in your forum messages.

On a desktop computer, you can simply drag and drop a photo into any message you are posting.

On a mobile, you can use the "Upload a File" button below your message. On most modern smart phones, this will allow you to either select a photo stored on your phone or take a new photo with your phone's camera.

Photos will be automatically resized to fit in your message....​

Copenworld Tip: Sharing Photos]]> 3 Copenworld Tip: Create an Avatar Thu, 21 Mar 2024 19:53:07 +0000 https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/copenworld-tip-create-an-avatar.3432/ https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/copenworld-tip-create-an-avatar.3432/ invalid@example.com (copenworld) copenworld Did you know.....?

An avatar is a small photo or picture that appears next to every message you post on the forums. It's a great way to personalise your messages, and it's easy to add one to your user account. Just follow these easy steps.

Make sure you're logged in, and then hover over or tap your username on the right-hand side of the menu bar at the top (on a mobile this may be shortened to just an icon). This will bring up your user menu:

I've uploaded some Daihatsu Service and User Manuals.

There are service manuals for both the 659cc and 1298cc models, plus the user manual for the 1298cc model.

You can access them via the Resources page.

Please note that you must have been a member of the forums for at least 7 days and posted at least 1 (meaningful) message before you can access the files. This requirement is necessary to prevent high...

There are quite a few behind-the-scenes changes, but nothing that should significantly affect how the website works.

If you spot any problems, please let me know.]]> Website Problems Now Resolved Mon, 02 Jan 2017 11:22:26 +0000 https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/website-problems-now-resolved.3718/ https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/website-problems-now-resolved.3718/ invalid@example.com (copenworld) copenworld

The website has had a few software updates today, including updates to the forum software and some security updates.

I've also made some tweaks to the style of the website.

As always, if you spot any problems, please let me know by replying to this post on the forum.

The Copenworld website is looking a bit dated now, and is running on obsolete software.

The world has moved on a lot since the website was created back in 2009, and I really need to update it to give it some more modern capabilities.

For that reason, I’m going to be moving the forum onto a new software platform.

You will continue to access the website at www.copenworld.com, but the...

Copenworld 2.0]]> 12 Copenworld 2.0 Launched Wed, 29 Jul 2015 05:36:14 +0000 https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/copenworld-2-0-launched.3160/ https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/copenworld-2-0-launched.3160/ invalid@example.com (copenworld) copenworld View attachment 1267 ​
The new website is now live.

Everything has been rebuilt from the ground up, so some things will look and behave differently to the old website. Although the styling has been updated, I've deliberately tried to keep a similar content layout to keep things relatively familiar, at least initially.

All user accounts and forum content have been transferred across, so you should be able to log in with your existing username and password. If you have...

If you want to grab another Copenworlder's attention, you can "mention" them in a message. Simply use the @ symbol followed by their user name (with no space in between), e.g. @copenworld would shout out to me. As you start to type their user name, a pop-up box will list any matching names to make it easier to find the right person, and you can choose from the list.

You'll get an alert when you're...​

You can now "like" forum messages, similar to Facebook.

Just hit the "like" button in the bottom corner of a message.

You will receive an alert when someone likes one of your messages, unless you switch this option off in your user preferences.​

The new Copenworld website has been built to be accessible on mobile devices as well as on desktop computers.

The website has a "responsive" design, which means that it adjusts automatically to the size of your screen.

You should be able to use the forums with most modern devices, including smartphones and tablets.​

I've considered setting up a Facebook account before, but I'm unsure whether it's worthwhile. Would it get used? Would it attract more members, especially younger people? Or would it just be too much and maybe have an adverse effect on forum usage?

Leave your comments, and tell me what you think in...

....well sort of!

In two week's time, I'll be emigrating permanently from the UK to New Zealand.....and yes the Copen is coming with me! It will be securely packed into a container to set sail across the world for about eight weeks to it's new home in Auckland.

The copenworld site will continue as normal, but don't be surprised if my articles are upside-down in future!]]> 15 Site Maintenance Tue, 06 Mar 2012 20:11:16 +0000 https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/site-maintenance.794/ https://www.copenworld.com/community/threads/site-maintenance.794/ invalid@example.com (copenworld) copenworld [​IMG]The site maintenance work is now complete.

Copenworld has been relocated on to new servers, and the bills have been paid for the next couple of years, so that should secure the future of the site for a while!

You may still have some intermittent problems with accessing the site while the changes propagate across the internet, but this should resolve itself within the next day or two.

How will this model compare to the current model, and will it see the Copen returning to Europe? Copenworld will track the story as it develops over the coming months.

There's a new "How To...." guide on the features page showing how to replace your plastic seatbelt guides with some lovely shiny chrome ones which actually work!

It's extremely simple to do. Perhaps the most useful part of the guide is explaining how to import them from Japan.]]> 7
