FOR ROWENA:

Hi Rowena, can you please ask the CC web team if they have considered moving CT out of the CC domain and setting up a separate CT domain, to improve access and use?     This would remove many layers of linking which is making this site so tardy.    They are clearly not having any success in finding a solution to the current speed/access problem.

I don't see why, when this forum is wound up. that those few regular posters cannot use the CMC facebook application. After all, unlike other Forums, there are never any deep and meaningful discussions seen on here anyway. 

K wink.

I've had another look at the club's Facebook page and it doesn't seem to be used for much other than adverts from HO.

Certainly no deep and meaningful discussions as here.

With reference to the OP, FB works at speed, with CT you have to wait for the pearls of wisdom to drop slowly into your field of vision.... wink

I too have a high speed internet connection and can confirm that this forum is the slowest to link to of any site I use. Coupled to the fact that I also have to sign in each time makes it a chore to use. 

I have looked at the FB account and it is seriously under used as far as I can see and therefore not worth bothering with.

We do need proper software for this forum, there is no valid excuse for not providing it. 

Practical Caravan use commercial software for their forum and that works as it should.

How can you tell how much the Facebook page is used? From what I have seen they only show a selection of posts made by visitors as they are regularly pruned!!! Can you become a member of the Facebook page and if so how?

All I can see on FB (accessed via OH's membership) is the number of likes and followers under "community." But what does that really mean?

It's followed by over 56k Facebook users. That means that posts on the Facebook page will show up in the timeline of 56k people. They may not interact any further with that particular post. 

It's a 'page' rather than a 'group'. There tends to be slightly less engagement on pages than there is within a group. The club monitors FB very closely as well
