Facebook/Twitter Share Buttons

You should now see facebook & twitter icons on the right hand side somewhere ----------^^^^^^^^^^

These allow you to easily share the topic to your facebook or twitter page.
There is an edit/confirmation page first, so don't worry, clicking them won't automatically post anything.

Hopefully it may come in useful!

I'm working on a facebook 'Like' button too, but doubt I'll get that done today.

Yes a very good idea.
As you can tell it can sometimes take a while to actually put the ideas into place though!

Can you see the buttons?

Another thing I have noticed recently with the site Owain, is that when you click on a link on the forum it opens in the same window as opposed to a new window, I think this happened when you introduced the new mobile site.

Ah yeah, that must have been overwritten when I installed the new forum software/update.

I'll try and revert back to how it was.

Changed it so that they show up on each post now instead.

Hopefully those that can't see it will be able to see it eventually!

Generally links should always open in the same window (best practice when it comes to web design) however with a forum I guess it's a bit different.

I'll try and work out how I changed it before!

Anything yet?

The links should also open in a new window now (apart from internal links obviously)
