Or just change your password to random stuff and log out. That is the easiest way. Or we can just ban you if you ask.

How does one post a Youtube short on the forum?

When I’m in a thread I’m scrolling over an enormous orange advert for an RHS flower show. Is that deliberate, a fault or just me? I know the forum has had issues with ads in the past.
I’m having the same problem suddenly but with a travel ad. If I turn on the “show reader” mode it goes away. When I reach the foot of a page, the ad floats over the top and the text is visible only a little at the top, the back and forward arrows are hidden, and I basically have to open in a new window.

With the option to upload images using a url, every time I try I get a little message that says, "Something went wrong, please try again or contact the administrator" so I am contacting the administrator.

What's the URL you're using?

I get this too a lot of the time so I just wrap the link in IMG tags.

Put IMG within square brackets, then paste your link and finish with /IMG also in square brackets.

How do you find a list of the total number of members the caf has, the highest amount of people viewing the forum at once etc...?

I'd like to change the email associated with my account, the one on this account is ancient (from 2009) and I don't think it exists any more. It says "If you change your email, you may need to reconfirm your account" so wouldn't this be an issue if the email doesn't exist any more?
Thanks for any help.

I have large adverts between the text input box and the ‘post reply’ buttons in threads meaning I have to scroll once I’ve finished typing. Is this supposed to be happening? Because I really don’t want to buy a Taylor wimpey house in Uttoxeter, go on a jet2 holiday and I definitely have no interest in finding the 5 lemons (I haven’t got any gin in at the minute!)

im on iPhone btw in case it makes a difference.

I am getting weird gaps in the forum. Almost like a response or two is missing including the header, name etc. Using Chrome on a Windows PC.

I'm getting this issue too.
Oh and is there a way you can filter the ads?
I have no need whatsoever for a Liverpool FC phone cover, or various sex toys, (are the two connected in some way)

You'll just have to get the finger out and more than double your post count. Problem is solved at 30k posts.

Just came on and I'm getting pretty big adverts in between the posts. Like 5 or 6 a page.
I'll try and post a pic but don't know how to make the image come up instead of the link.
I'm on ipad, safari.

I suspect my gaps problem is adverts, but the adverts are not displaying as our corporate ad blocker is killing them.

Came here to post this. Same has been happening to me since today, big ads every 2-3 posts or so. It’s making the forum unreadable on mobile.

I think I've found the culprit. Please let me know if you're still seeing those ads.
