Dear users,

We inform you that in order to better protect your forums against spam, we have replaced FunCaptcha by Google reCAPTCHA in our services.

More efficient and better adapted, reCAPTCHA uses an advanced risk analysis engine and adaptive CAPTCHAs to prevent automated software from engaging in abusive activities on your forums.

The Forum Newbies topic has been updated with screenshots of the Google recaptcha challenge process:

Known Issues from Forumotion Help Forum: Please Report

Hi Everyone,

An update on the CAPTCHA issue reported above:
http://forum.sacvolvoclub.org/t264-known-issues-from-forumotion-help-forum-please-report#549

We've received a report that the FunCaptcha challenge is not appearing when registering, resulting in the following error message:

We could not validate that you are not a spammer. Please try again.

There seem to be intermittent reports of this issue on the Forumotion Help Forum, which may be related to Forumotion updates temporarily effecting forum settings (usually for a day or two)...

I've gone through the Administration Panel, checked our settings and codes, and tested the registration process-- the FunCaptcha challenge should be appearing again.

Please also note that the FunCaptcha challenge can be slow to load, so please wait for it to load before confirming your password.

http://forum.sacvolvoclub.org/t7-forum-newbies-information-and-how-tos-to-help-you-get-started

-Make sure your browser is up-to-date
-Try registering with a different browser
-Try the general troubleshooting steps listed here:

Hi Everyone,

An update from the Forumotion Help Forum on the following topic:

Mobile Version Log In Issues with iPhones and iPads:

felicity4us2 wrote:I am sorry that I didn't see this post many months ago. The problem 'is' the cookies. The new update on apple devices was set to 'block cookies', for us anyhow. You have to go into setting, Safari (or whatever browser) and 'block cookies', then, click 'allow'. Otherwise, you just go in circles trying to log in - and, you get no errors telling you why - you just can't log in anywhere. We did not have to reset the phone, but probably a good idea.

We have had this announcement on our forum since the update happened. Might be a good idea to post it.

Why Forumotion? The Benefits and Drawbacks.

Hi Everyone,

As we make the changes to the Sac Volvo Club Forum per the Sac Volvo Club policies, I wanted to take a moment to revisit this topic.

---

Overview:

Forumotion has been a stable provider of this free hosted forum for us over the years and the features have been steadily improved and continue to be developed.

Check out the Updates and New Features Section of the Help Forum for the Latest:
http://help.forumotion.com/f1-updates-and-new-features

The Forumotion Community and Help Forum remain active, friendly, and open to suggestions.

Advertising / Credit System:

As a free service, Forumotion supports itself through the third-party advertising / ads, copyright links, and credit system.
I have limited the number and type of advertising / ads as much as possible in the Administration Panel (without buying credits).

2016 Topic with Credit to Cost Information:
http://help.forumotion.com/t147778-i-have-a-questions-about-credit#1019698

Credits Management:
http://help.forumotion.com/t1219-credits-management#6394

---

Gallery / Attachments / Forum Storage:

The Gallery and Attachment features count against forum storage (now limited to 20MB), so they are not activated in the Administration Panel as credits are required to purchase more storage.

Forum Error #230: Contact Technical Support / General Error Help

Hi Everyone,

If you try to register for the forum or are posting to the forum and receive the following error message:

Error #230: Contact Technical Support

Or, if you receive any other error message try these tips as they generally help in a lot of situations:

There are a few things to try:
1. Clear your browsers cache and/or cookies--
Clean your cache first. If you still have problems, clean your cookies.

Alternatively, you can clean them both at the same time:

-Instructions provided by Gmail Support:
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/32050?hl=en&rd=1

-Related link from the University of Indiana:
https://kb.iu.edu/d/ahic

2. If you do not want to clean your cache/cookies, or are still having a problem after cleaning your cache/cookies,
Try a different browser, if you have one.
For example, if you were using the Google Chrome Browser when you received the error, try switching to the Mozilla Firefox Browser and see what happens...

3. If switching browsers does not help, clear the browser of cache and cookies again and either reply to this topic with any further details you can provide or contact me as listed on the Contact Us page (webmaster):
http://www.sacvolvoclub.org/Home/contactus

4. If you have the time/inclination/want to help problem solve:
Try searching for your issue/error code in the Forumotion Help Forums.
The link can be found in the bottom right footer of the forum under "Free Forum Support:"
http://help.forumotion.com/
Although I find searching with Google much more helpful than the forums search bar.
Example:
forumotion error 230 site:help.forumotion.com


I have made a change in the Administration Settings, so hopefully no one else runs into this 230 error again, but if you do and these recommendations do not work for you, let me know...

Hope that helps.

Take care,
volvie!
