Thanks, Mark. If I recall correctly, Willie said there is some reason he cannot bookmark the home page - which, I agree, is the first choice. That's what I do; ergo, a brilliant move  ;-).

[marko]

Ok, thank you for the translation - that I understand.  International Flat Figure Society and British Flat Figure Society are going to another site that is referring to us.


I can add the plumbing that should drive GOOGLE to go to us first.


If this is the case a simple bookmark to the Home Page should also resolve the issue or use intflatfigures in GOOGLE to get to us as well.


Should take about a three days to catch up once I enter the terms.

I think what Willie is trying to say is that if you Google "British Flat Figure Society" or "Internationl Flat Figure Society" it takes you to some random page, e.g. a Journal .pdf, and not to the home page.

Of course the work around solution is to delete the contents of address of the page you on ( e.g. http://www.intflatfigures.org/index.php?action=post;topic=1297.0;last_msg=10313)  from the right side until you come to www.intflatfigures.org, . You will then get to the home page.

I'm, thinking that perhaps our indexing or key words are not correct, or not properly linked so they lead searchers to the home page.
 
My two cents.

Willie, sorry but, I truly don't know how to translate this.  If you can send me a screenshot or two through a private message here I will take a look.

[willie]

Ok I can always go in threw any of the other web pages Thanks Willie

[marko]

If I understand your issue you are trying to get to the site from Google Chrome and don't see a login page?


There is no Home page to the site any longer nor login page.  However, you should normally see something like this:


[ Guests cannot view attachments ]


If I have this wrong or you are having a different experience send me a picture of the screen please.

Every time I go to Google log on I fined that there is no main Home page for the club there is none just Links FAQ BFS Journal pages. Now is it me or Google. Willie

[errant49]

Well, this is normal life of an internet site and a proof of success
Thanks to you Mark for running all that

Just as a note to folks there has been some periodic availability issues the site has been going through - somewhere between 30 - 60 minutes a week.  I do get a periodic uptime report and alerts so that I can proactively handle the issues.


Basically due to our popularity - good thing - we have been getting some denial of service attacks which is taking some time to sort out - bad thing.


Apologies for the inconvenience - this is acknowledgement of the issue which is being researched.
