    Hi, I have been getting asked a lot on what's happening with the Classifieds section of the site. Recently the Forums software we use went to a minimum server requirement of php v8. If I didn't upgrade the server to php v8 I would not have been able to install any forum software updates including any security updates so I did. This meant that many of the other functions of the site like the Classifieds section no longer worked. I have been able to update most of them however Classifieds relies on a 3rd party who just isn't playing ball to the point that he is ignoring those that use Classifieds on their site. The only way around this and to safeguard the site in the future from this type of thing is to develop our own Classifieds section BUT, it is a big job however I am nearly at a stage where I can switch it on. it will cover most things and I will be slowly building it up to a more powerful Classifieds section as time permits. keep watching over the next few days for Classifieds to appear again in the main side menu. i apologise if this has caused anyone any inconvenience but it will be better in the long run ensuring that the Classifieds section won't be impacted like this again...thanks for your understanding...Ian

    One thing that I wont stand for on this site is the bashing of any aircraft especially Jabirus. ALL aircraft and engines have their pros and cons and what is one man's trash is another man's pleasure so PLEASE don't knock another man's pleasure. Please use the "Report Post" function if this occurs so a moderator can act on it...thanks for your understanding and hope the site is a pleasure to ALL aircraft owners and pilots.

    Did you know you can add Accommodation to an airfield in our Airfields list here on Recreational Flying. In fact you can add anything related to an airfield in that section. Just go to the menu item Resources -> Airfields, click on the airfield you wish to add info to, click Comments on the pop out balloon and then add your comments/information in the next screen...hope this helps

    Guys, I wish to apologise for me being a bit slack the last couple of months with orders placed in Clear Prop and general site admin however my focus has been elsewhere. I have been fighting multiple malignant melanomas going through many scans and surgeries, multiple infections and the lovely use of Oxycodone but we seem to be beating it now with the last surgery only requiring every 2nd day visits to the doc. This means I can start catching up on things and processing any delayed Clear Prop orders and site admin duties. I hope you understand and I again apologise for any inconvenience. If you are waiting on any Clear Prop orders or have any issues please send me a message...thanks

    Just to let you know I have just updated the site and a core piece of software (PHP) on the server to the latest versions. A couple of addons (Classifieds, Movies, Books, Videos etc) have been temporarily disabled until I can get updated versions of them that suit the server software version upgrade. If you find any issues please let me know

    As was said, it was tried and was unsuccessful with the exception of an image just like you all do, upload images to the site, however they were able to upload it to a different directory and with a specific file name but again you are allowed to upload images to the site but also image files are screened for any embedded code as well. Logs show that it was blocked from doing anything else. The site also uses 1 way encryption of passwords. In other words when you put your password in it gets stored as gobblegook characters that mean nothing. When you login again it checks that your password goes through a conversion process and matched the gobblegook. BUT, there is no way the gobleggook can go the other way into an actual password that can be read...for example the process may go through a loop x number of times dropping off the last y characters each time that is what is meant as 1 way as you can't get the characters that are dropped off back again if you try to go from goblegook back to your password...ask a coder what 1 way password encryption means and they may be able to explain it easier for you to understand FlyBoy1960

    Hi All, we have had a silly little boy attempting to hack the site and all he was able to do was create an annoying site landing screen but nothing else. ALL YOUR DATA IS SAFE and has not been accessed at all and in fact it is extremely hard to access the database and even then passwords etc are encrypted and 1 way only. So sorry about causing any inconvenience with the annoying picture but I believe I have now stopped it...fingers crossed

    I am unable to move the topic to the off topic site Social Australia as they are separate sites and user lists

    This thread has required the removal of some posts and it has gone to a point that is just users abusing each other and nothing to do with flying any more...Thread Closed
