Empty Your Caches! (Again) More Forum Upgrades

[ZeroRoom[TK]]

Hi Troopers,

 

We've made some more forum upgrades - and this one's the big one. We've added a full Reception Menu sidebar to the forum pages! Easy access to all the CRL's, Tutorials and How To's you've been looking for right on the forum page.

 

Whether you're using the White Skin or the Blue/ Black Skin if you're not seeing this new look page (if you're like me and leave your browser open 24/7) then be sure to empty you cache, hit refresh and voila! New improved FISD again!

 

In fact there are a few more tweaks to come in the next few weeks so it's probably not a bad idea to refresh or empty the cache every now and then just in case!

 

Over and Out

About cache, cookies, and history

 

Each time you access a file through your web browser, the browser caches (i.e., stores) it. Thus, the browser doesn't have to newly retrieve files (including any images on the page) from the remote web site each time you click Back or Forward. You should periodically clear the cache to allow your browser to function more efficiently.

A cookie is a file created by a web browser, at the request of a web site, that is stored on a computer. These files typically store user-specific information such as selections in a form, shopping cart contents, or authentication data. Browsers will normally clear cookies that reach a certain age, but clearing them manually may solve problems with web sites or your browser.

A browser's history is a log of sites that you visit. When you press a browser's Back button, you are moving back one entry the history log. Browsers will normally clear history at regular intervals, but you may want to clear it manually for privacy reasons.
