Hi Sue. I hope you don’t mind, but I noticed your profile photo was flipped by 90 degrees and so I edited it to place it up the right way.

Have you checked your site speed out at http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/? The WimUk website is faster than 86% of all websites. This is a good result considering the highly functional nature of the site and the fact that it is a WordPress website – WordPress sites are generally slower than normal HTML websites due to the fact that each page request…[Read more]

Actually, that’s not the original video that I posted to my activity stream here, but glad you like anyway 🙂
Just in case anyone else has the same problem, when I pasted my youtube video url when adding my post here, I pasted it with a list parameter on the end (e.g. ….&list=UUpO8Ek_UhGo_pzlKleBCung). This seems to have the effect of always…[Read more]

If a video will make your point more clearly than a text update, try adding a video link to your WIMUK activity stream like the one below. Just enter your normal update and then click the video icon below the box and paste your Youtube (or other) URL into the space provided. WIMUK visitors will then be able to view the video directly within the…[Read more]

You can now post image, video and url links into your activity feed to achieve an effect similar to this (see below). Not all links will present images, but a good many will and so it is worth trying out a few when you next post an activity update.

That should be fixed now Sandra. I submitted a test mentor application to try it out – so please ignore when you receive it (and let me know if you don’t receive it).

Quite a few changes on the website this weekend – so please keep an eye open for problems and let me know if you find anything odd.
We have upgraded WordPress, our theme, and a whole bunch of plugins to bring the site bang up to date.
One of the big advantages of these changes is that the website is now ‘responsive’. For those of you who don’t…[Read more]

Hi Martin,
There seems to be a problem with the mentor and mentee application forms. Just a blank page is coming up.
Could you please have a look. It seems to need re-attaching and also making sure that all the other completed forms are still attached and available.
Thank you -

URGENT – FOR ALL WIMUK MEMBERS…
We have had to add another level of security on the top of this website. When you try to log in to your wimuk account you will need to enter…
username: wim and password: stophackers
This is before you get to your usual login screen.
Many apologies for this inconvenience. Along with most other WordPress…[Read more]

I’m doing some site updates this weekend. This might mean a few functions don’t work until this is complete. apologies for the inconvenience… but your site will be better when it’s finished.

Martin Jarvis posted an update 10 years, 9 months ago
I’ve just upgraded the WordPress software that runs the site. I’ve also upgraded a few plugins and fixed a problem that was causing the pagination at the bottom of the home page to fail.
As always, if you notice any glitches as a result of these changes… please let me know.

Well done Sandra. I’m sure you were an absolute success.
Let’s hope they don’t wait another 30 years to invite you back.

I have just installed CloudFlare on the WimUK website. CloudFlare protects websites from malicious traffic and significantly improves page load speeds.
If you notice any problems please let me know.
If you want your own website protected and speeded up, please get in touch.

Thanks Martin,
You are indeed a star. I don’t know what I would do without on both my websites. Your help, advise and support, not to mention hard work, is invaluable. -

Hi Martin,
Just removed a few more this evening.

I’m preparing the site for a larger update (which I hope will take place in the next few weeks), but in the meantime if you need to change your password please request a new one here.

Sandra Pollock replied 11 years, 5 months ago
Hi Martin,
Thanks very much for doing this. I’ll try to bring it to the attention of anyone I am aware has like me forgotten their password, on occasion.

I can highly recommend Guy Kawasaki’s e-book called ‘What the Google+’. The book is essentially a ‘how to’ guide to Google+ (my copy cost just £0.99 on Google Play for my Android).
I’m starting to focus more effort on Google+, and have pretty much given up on Facebook. I think that Google+ will be the big social media platform in the coming…[Read more]

I’ve upgraded WordPress and a bunch of plugins this morning. Everything should work as it did before (or even better). If you do notice any glitches, please let me know and I’ll try to sort it out.

I have upgraded the website software versions today so that we are using the current versions of WordPress, BuddyPress, the Theme and all plugins.
Once again, due to the complexity of the site this was not a trivial change, so if you notice any issues please let me know.

I have just moved the WIM website on to a new server. This should give us a more reliable and, ultimately, better performing platform.
However, a move of this sort isn’t trivial for a site as complex as WIM so if you notice anything odd (or different) over the next few days, please let me know.-
Sandra Pollock replied 12 years, 1 month ago
HI Martin,
The moves seems to have gone okay. I’ve not come across any gremlins, so that’s good. Will let you know if that changes. Thanks for your help and support.

Hi Martin, thanks for that update. As we will be getting busier in the coming months, with more information and activity. It’s good to know the site will be able to keep up. Brilliant.
