Has the site changed to a different format? I cant find the previous Econoline postings. The category only shows 4 posts. Am I missing something. I ve never had problems reading or posting here in the past.

They did a recent upgrade on the server for the site. It was about a week ago. For a good day you could not access the site due to the server upgrade. So maybe that affected your posts?

Ok so I ve got something really cool I need to post that includes 3 pictures. Whats the procedure for attaching pics to to a post on this site? At the oldeconolines yahoo site it's as simple as attaching a pic to an email sent to the site.

I have trouble with that also. The Man./Sask Chapter there is a thread at the top where we have been posting our vehicles on. It explained how to do this.
Something like have your posted thread called up. Then minimize it, right click the pics you want posted, clic properties. Then copy, go back to the thread that is minimize and your suspose to be able to paste on the thread. It seems to work for others, but I seem to have problems too.

All I know is that when I click on the Ranchero /Econoline section I see only 5 total posts and none of my past posts. I personally have posted more than 5 times myself and I know I ve seen many posts in this category in the past. Where have they all gone? Something is definitely different.

Additionally it shows over 5000 posts in this category but yet I can only see back as far as the last 5 dating to June 29,2009. How do I access prior posts.

I'm at the thread and I see all the posts and over 10 pages of posts on the Ranchero/ Econoline threads.
I wonder if your computer is blocking it.

Ok,I ve got it figured out and feel pretty silly about it too. The display options box was set at show last week of posts which is why I couldnt see posts prior to that. I honestly cant recall ever using that box before so not sure how the setting would have changed. I didnt even realize it existed. Problem solved,just a little egg left on my face to clean off now
