add transmissions auto/standard this is more in line less confusion.diy tip tiltles and sticky in rigth catagore it will work.

another though on larger forums car, boats etc. views less then a 100 or less and anythings in cars over 24 months should auto deleted.by then they are either junked wrecked or in some back yard with some day i will fix it up or traded in. this will allow quicker viewing of topics stop long drawn out searching and be 1-10 pages instead 52+ pages or call up topics ex:transmissions type in search box, type transmissions everything related to that topic will appear.this maybe be more user friendly and attractive to viewers. this is just an idea. if not possible then ok also. will not think otherwise.

search box feature needed:

ex:type boat motors everything fore boats appear.


ex:type garden planting everything for appear.

any further input anyone?

I got de part about makin transmission topics in Cars, but did he mean to do away with post about Cars and Boats dat are over 24 month old, or anything to do with Cars and Boats that are more than 2 years old ?

I don't think ya should be takin anything off dis Site, other Site do somethin like that, but it's called "Archive" whar ya got older post somewhare oud of de way, but still can see um if ya wants to.

And now i see whare we got two topic about the same in Domestic Electronic and dat be Audio and TV/Stereo, what the difference in Stereo and Audio.

hobbist,
I think what you're talking about was as Cavil put it, an "Archive" for older posts. I'll have to get with Jeffie and discuss that, we'll see what we can do there. Transmissions entered too.

Cavil,
Ok, got that changed.

WHAT ELSE !!

Have a good Day !
