A Question of Etiquette

[twentysix by twentyfive]

After more years than I care to remember frequenting the idle streets of this parish I've discovered how to add that Ticker thing in my Sig. I know folks used to put these things up but I'm struggling to see any at the moment. So have you guys stopped cycling or are these Ticker things not etiquette these days?

I've got one! If you can't see mine, you must have a setting wrong.
There is a setting that stops you seeing anyone's sig line...

Are those things, I've been on here for years and I don't know how to do one either.

Trust me Dave - you are not missing out on much.

There's instructions somewhere in the help or support parts. From memory, you go to the ticker factory (address is over my ticker), set it up there, copy the code it gives you and send it to Shaun, or something. You update your miles on teh ticker factory site and it (eventually) reads over to here automatically.

You should write an idiots guide to it. Because this idiot still cannot fathom it out.

Yep - I see it.

Correct

Well go here https://www.tickerfactory.com/ezticker/ticker_designer.php?type=8. Use the options to set up what you want. There should be a bit of code that comes up. Copy and paste that code into your sig line on here. Seemed to work for me.

Oh dear. It's always the assumptions that trip one up

Something tells me you forgot to put your bike back in the garage after your last ride

I feel your pain. Now off down the LBS to get it sorted. Nothing else matters.........

Or do you mean your Ticker thing?

Aye, the ticker thing, can you not see it?
It's another ticker, MCL, broke a wee while ago after a CC update, the boss is sorting it.

I can only see 'User "Pat5mph" not found in CycleChat'. Maybe that's why I'm not seeing these things so much at the moment?

Off now to look up MCL
